In theory it's an easy tipping round as other than Crows v Freo there is a firm favourite in each match.

Sure to be a few upsets though

Richmond

Eagles

Bulldogs

Swans (hoping for a GWS win though)

Port

Brisbane

Freo

Cats

 and of course US

TV probably

one game into Sydney... one into Melbourne

Interest in the Sydney game outside Sydney would be very low

It's the last week of Thursday night footy which is a shame. I hated it when it first came in but now I'm 100% on board, great to kick back and watch a game of footy on a Thursday, makes it feel like the weekends already started. Would be difficult actually getting to a game but on tv it's a winner.

i'll be going with:

  • tiggas
  • meth coke
  • footscray
  • swans
  • pear
  • bears
  • crows
  • us
  • cats

no real confidence in tiggas, meth coke, pear, or bears

first time all year i've felt reasonably confident that we should 'get the job done' which means, inevitably, that we won't, if my mfcss hold true

Hoping for an ugly and unconvincing Richmond  6 point win over St Kilda.

Lose and it will be a line in the sand game for Richmond on Anzac eve.

Win convincingly and they’ll be back to their super confident best.

Also think the Giants might knock off Sydney.

AFLW grand final. AFL don;t want to over-shadow the showcase womens game hence re-scheduled the arvo game avoid a clash

Agree. just when everybody gets used to the idea they decide to can it. makes no sense.

They have the flexible schedule as well so no reason they can't bring it back. Must be keeping it in their pocket for the next tv rights negotiations.

i remain convinced cos it's outside tv ratings cycle

ch 7 won't want to spend the $$ to broadcast in prime time when it's not valuable from an advertising perspective

I reckon Saints will give the Tigers a shake tonight. Tigers are out of form, list two on the trot. Saints beat WC last week. Could be interesting

Couple of soft choping of the arms free kicks to the Aints

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
