Genuinely think we're the best side in it so far this year. Port have been hot and cold. the Dogs looked good at stages but haven't been tested and their backline is a real weakness against better sides. and we've beaten Geelong and RIchmond. 

 

 

the ch 7 commentary from the bunker in docklands sounds weirdly subdued today

the way the swans play is really interesting; chip chip chip

if it works it's great but if you can pressure their forward entries they struggle a bit

Surprised with how poor Port are looking

We've been by far the most consistent and solid team thus far. I don;t think we've had a bad quarter yet.

 

A strange year, with erratic performances (up and down) happening week to week.  Sides down 5% get cut up, and few teams have a system that works.  Teams have looked champagne or boiled lollies with little apparent change.  Stands us in good stead with a solid system.  We have seen off several solid efforts (including the two grand finalists) and it seems more than the sugar rush offered up randomly by others.  Defence wins flags.  Not impressed by many others 7 weeks in.  Dees are looking well set up in comparison.

Because GWS need more top 5 picks. Bloody hell!

It’s ok. They keep their feet warm before they move to better clubs.

Dogs were weak as [censored] last night and Port are getting slaughtered as we speak.

Of course we are the best side in the comp.

The umps kick another goal for Geelong.

They’re very good at it. They’ve been doing it for years.

Between the botched salary cap, disastrous trade period,  Eddie standing down, Grundy contract,   their 1-6 start where Buckley has lost the players and the players dont even care about the jumper, losing to Gold Coast at the G'...

The Pies are officially a basket-case.

If only Port had run out in the " prison bar " guernsey,  would have topped off a great week for the pies....


Some “surprise results” this round.

Hope our guys see this as a gentle warning and just go out and smash Norf.

Very concerned that everything is going our way. Usually does not bode well!

Hoping the 2021 demons are the real deal

gawn / jackson v hickey / mclean is going to be good to watch next week, presuming our two get thru fine tomorrow

can't believe that hickey got up from a pcl after 1 week - was meant to be out for 6!

melican a hammy; won't be playing next week

Port don’t like playing Brisvegas 

they often get smashed. 

 

weird....

Look like a class of recalcitrant schoolboys sitting down to a reality check homily from the coach post game.

What a shame that the Cats lost. ?

Do you mean the free kick milking cheats ?

Cats absolutely shafted on that last call. I reckon it went 20 at least

was touched apparently...

But how good is it to see them on the wrong side of an umpiring decision. 

 

Clearly holding the ball at the end. Seems karma has ran over the Cats!

Some hubris amongst Demon folk setting in. 
 

the season is very very long

 

we can cover the swans and crows and dogs

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
