Cats never miss an opportunity to boost their percentage. Always keep their foot on the throat. It's a lesson we could do with learning

    Yeah well if we had a home ground advantage, and were gifted players like Dangerfield and Cameron we probably would do it.

    Home advantage does make a big difference. Same with West Coast at Optus.

    2 teams I can not stand because they do what they do so consistently:

    Geelong playing like millionaires at home, and 
    The Eagles lacking soul away from home.

    Its been the same for 30 years.

    Eagles should just take the forfeit and save their energy instead of travelling. Fair dinkum letting this Geelong side put this score on the board is embarrassing.

    Imagine if we had an exclusive awkward shaped home ground susceptible to crappy weather and only play interstate and crappy sides at it. We could pencil in an average of a half dozen extra wins a season.

    What ever happens tonight, it’s now factually incorrect that we haven’t beaten anyone of note.

    Geelong are a reigning grand finalist who just beat a contender by 97 pts, and we kept them to 60pts at the G. It was a win full of merit.

    People should now be called out on this narrative if they continue to accuse us of it, if things go south tonight.

    You can only play who your fixtures against.  We have Beaton sides that have Beaton more fancied sides that what we are.  My concern for team development is winning is a habit.  We have shown we pushed we can steady and pull away from sides.

    And geelong mauling of the eagle smakes the Bulldogs wins look less meritorious: Wins:  Pies +16, WCE, +7, NM +128, BL +19, Suns +62 all at Mars/Marvel excdept Pies at the G.  Yet to play a team inside the 8.

    No doubt the Bulldogs are good but not as good as their undefeated run suggests.  Downhill skiers, beating up on the lesser teams; small wins vs last year's finalists.  Their test is yet to come.

    The Suns v Swans game shows that you can't rate a team or club on the performances rounds 1-6. It is rounds 7-12 where things begin to settle, new talent emerges, and those teams building for the finals start to look strong. There is also usually a late bolter for the finals.

    Rankine is SO over-rated. A few good games in 1 season and all the commentators are gushing. 

    Suns are better than everyone thinks, but still not great. 

    Swans came out of the blocks hard. A few injuries and they come right back to the pack. They have talent, and a great coach, but it is a long season for such a young list.

    I hate Geelong.

    I like the Eagles under Simpson, but they are simply unreliable. Their stars are going missing too often.

    Nic Nat better than Gawn. Hahahahahahaha!!

    Their best stars are getting old, not that has slowed down the cats either.  We'll see a mini-rebuild soon to sustain them.  Their massive home grand advantage almost ensures they play finals every year.  Look at last year, couldn't win a game in the hub but still made finals after regrouping.

    Triplechins commentary ... twice called Casboult "Greenwood". 

    You moron Triplechins ... Levi Greenwood is a filth player. The world doesn't revolve around the filth.

    I'm so torn on who I want to see win today in the big game. I like seeing essendon lose and with the pies going the way they are to see them lose would be even better and see Buck's demise just get worse. 

    Maybe a draw would be the best outcome.

    Nice high scoring game at Launceston

     

    Melbourne doesnt get a chance to kick big scores as we play in the wet every week.  Would be nice to play in dry weather for once.

    High scoring but some of the loosest footy I have seen in a long time. It's like Clarkson is using the Hawthorn side as some sort of experimental rabbit. Last weeek defensive and today as loose as guts.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
