    Gee I'm sure Shaun Higgins does not regret his decision to move at all. also I wonder if Josh Dunkley is thanking his lucky stars he did not move to the bummers. 

    I'm not a fan of north but I do feel for there coach and I hope roosy and others give him some support. Although he wasn't a favourite Mark Neeld did cop a lot of heat and not a lot of support back then. 

    So next week nth play the crows at marvel, what crowd number do you think they will get and will the crow fans outnumber the nth fans?

    I'm looking forward to seeing them get flogged by 100+ points ?

    The Pies may not be the finest chocolates going around at the moment but they almost always give a 100% red hot go every game, making them a hard team to beat.

    I would not even give them a millimeter let alone an inch.  Replay that match ten times over they probably win eight of them and they're looking ok and one of the team's to beat.

    I must admit their forward line looks flakey though and too reliant on DeGoey kicking 4 to 5 each week to get them over the line.

    Hoewever as we know, footy is very fickle, occasionally decided by the mere direction a ball bounces (see Milne 1st drawn GF 2010).

    While they still have Pendles & Sidebottom (when in form) running around, write off the Pies at your peril.

    I was referring to the kangas. Collingwood are still a dangerous team and no easy beats.

    If the AFL hand us (Tasmania) this steaming [censored] it’s just proof of their contempt for the push for a team. “You wanted a team, here it is. Enjoy.” ? 

    Yep. No one wants them

    They should have gone to the Gold Coast when the offer was there

    Is it too early for us to start packing up and moving to Arden St? 
     

    (Good digs and a train station coming soon - will be a mini CBD soon enough with a footy oval in the middle)

    North's percentage after 3 rounds is 37.3%. outside of Essendon I cannot think of a side they would be a chance to beat. It is quite likely they will go all season without a win and less than 50%.

    We can all thank chookrat when Tom Dyson kicks 7 goals, 1 after the siren to beat us, in their only win of the season and we miss finals by 0.0000001% (to Collingwood or Essendon)

    Maybe we will see a 100 goal season by a forward this year. I’d like to see that, any chance it can happen?

    Could easily happen if Forward Lines are open

    Nought are the reason we have the Gold Coast $un$

    I feel no Sympathy ? 

    I'm glad we have the Sun's and I'm glad North are still in Melbourne. Anyone wishing death or relocation on other teams should have a good hard look at themselves. What happened to Fitzroy (and almost us and Hawthorn) should never happen again. Remember North and Fitzroy wanted to merge but were blocked by the AFL and the other clubs.

    There should be room for only one Melbourne in the Competition 

    Nought should never have been allowed in back in 1925

    Always Hated them, Always will

    South Melbourne didn’t last and Neither will North

    Ouch, I just opened the AFL app to see what happened. This could be the beginning of the end for North if they aren’t careful. 

    They’ve almost certainly lost the Good Friday game for next year, they will be a terrible team for at least the next couple of years and after pushing so hard for it you can’t put up such an insipid performance. 

    We’ve been there, it really sucks.

    I am not sure who the main commentator for the adelaide/suns clash is ( maybe that Dwayne Russell type ) but every time that blinking Walker goes near the ball he has absolute multiples. He is worse than Mcevany.

    Ben King has 4 goals already.  Tex doing well again. Bruce kicking 10.

    Its the year for big forwards....  Benny Brown would have kicked 80 this year if he played a full season.. we need him and Weid back!

    one thing the new STAND! rule has done is definitely open up leading space

    i'm really excited to see what brown can do

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
