May be gaaaaaaaawn.

Took a flying swing at Nigel Lappin late in the third quarter against the Lions. Looked to me like a blatant attempted trip.

As it happens it looked like he hyper-extended his ankle in a similar way to Brock and went off in a bad way.

Ironic

Edit: Has come back on and looks alright.

Attempted trip means jack squat. He'll play against us.

No, actually there is a new rule this year that means attempted trips will be dealt with more harshly this year. And rightly so, its a disgusting part of the game. He may be in some trouble.

Would you say they were worse, better or the same as us?

Or does all s#%t look the same to you?

Doubt it. Eyes only for the ball. A gentle open hand slap that was an accident he apologised for immediately. Head contact could make the AFL take notice, and it's probably a bit hairier than wreckers, but still shouldn't get rubbed out.

Knowing our luck, they'll ping wrecker for his accident where he came off worse, and let the Pav off.

How dare Ball try and injure another player by headbutting him...

pretty simple plan with hawthorn...

rough up buddy in the opening few minutes, before the bounce even, he'll drop his head everytime someone comes near him, play carroll on him, with rivers coming in from the side, wont get a go!!!

mcg, day time, byron back in (watch davey have a pearler), rivers back in, maybe sylvia too

 

Well I am glad I had the option of going to the Swans Eagles game then......


That would have been great Demonstorm, what is he up to now (sorry if that is a totally ignorant question)?

We went back to the Swans function after the game up here and they were pretty desolate, but honestly I don't think Brett Kirk could be any cooler if he tried.

And I realised how that sounded but I have met him a few times now over the years and he is a genuinely great bloke.

You should read his speech from the Guernsey presentation dinner - fantastic stuff - would be good for Demons as well

Its just a pity they lost, but you always get your moneys worth :P !!!

assist at hawks, got him to sign old dees card hardwick saw the card and was laughing , card from 1993 with the headband, they seemed pretty good at the hawks function , kennett spoke forever on stuff didnt really listen

Thanks DemonStorm.....

And I am pretty sure I knew that, or at least I should have :rolleyes: !!!

Will whelan play ? If not can CJ or Belly keep the shotgun under control?

Will be an interesting gamefor sure.

Dees will look to bounce back HARD.

Hopefully Bell gets some time on Williams. Firstly, Williams isn't going great, Bell could use the confidence, and he played well on him in the NAB cup, for whatever that's worth.

The last time we tried that tactic against Hawthorn we lost to them by 7 goals when they were bottom of the ladder at the time. (2005).

We always come off second best when ever we try to rough the opposition up. We're just not a tough nasty team.

I think there is every justification to test out Franklin's mettle. As a footballer his very silky and talented on the downhill stuff. He needs to physically challenged in the contest.

Loads of ability but not convinced on his toughness of character and strength of application.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
