So the powers that be maybe have decided that Melkshams ongoing lack of tackle is analagous to playing a deep full forward and having a three headed monster in Tmac, LJ and BBB. 

Wow that's a tall forward line - not quite WCE tall but still v. tall.  Granted BBB plays more as a leading forward. 

Excited to see how this affects the balance.

    Hopefully there are zero rakes in the forward 50 or this could be trouble!

    Weather forecast turning sour. Rain and strong winds possible Sunday afternoon.  Having 3 talls could backfire on us. North will relish it. Havent Sportsbet heard of Bass Strait and Tasmanian weather.

    I bet alot of money is going on North this week. Poor weather and sympathetic umps might keep them in the game.

    So much for sunny and 22.

    Should have moved the game to Marvel.

    TBH the main reason I'm glad he's playing for us is that he isn't playing for North.

    Sometimes, in my darkest moments, I get flashbacks to North surging forward with Brown one out with OMac in the goal square.

    We can finally watch us play that mob without the crippling and entirely rational fear that he's going to kick 10 goals on us.

    From the forecast I just read, medium chance of showers (0-1mm) and 15/20km winds. Not too bad I would’ve thought.

    You need to fight against your MFCSS Siam. A changing weather forecast is not going to derail.

    And in case you hadn't noticed, North are terrible.

    As per other posts, weather is looking Ok on 3 forecast sites including BOM.

    20 degrees , slight chance of a shower, cloudy with some sun,, winds 15-20 km/hr in the morning but lightening winds  in afternoon.

    I'd be confident that there is hardly any money being bet on North this week.

    If at  the  G or Marvel i wouldnt waste 10 cents on North.

    But its down inTassie. North always lift against us. First quarter should be telling either way. Fine weather and we will win.

    Well done BBB - who makes way??

    Purely a guess: I suspect Chandler won't be the sub two weeks running, so Chandler out and Jones as the sub as a way of managing him.

    I reckon Norf won't even score over 40 this week. It will be around a 100 point victory this week no one wants to give up there spot.

    Hoping its a bend over no lube type operation.

    BOM forecast - It is OK - Forget all other sites info.

    Yep...North are terrible alright but so are Melb against North in Tassie.

    The line is 57.5 points or something ridiculous if anyone was taking North it would be that not H2H

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
