No way! Dogs got lucky tonight imo. Outta these two, Port are the team to watch. They should’ve won this.

About to lose top of the ladder ?. Hopefully just briefly. 

Teams with a game in hand should always be ahead of teams on the same points but with no game in hand regardless of percentage imo.

Dogs midfield is a class above the competition. Their backline is very suspect. Their forwardline is meh although they do have Josh “kicks goals against Melbourne specialist” Bruce. 
Port were disappointing for mine. Dogs were very good. Their midfield is next level. 
 

Edit: didn’t watch the Richmond GWS game. But given the injuries to Richmond it seems like GWS blew a good chance. Or did they choke under the pressure?

Come on pal, do you honestly think we have served up better than that this year? If you do, you are in dreamland

The Powa are an extremely overrated team who got lucky with the shortened version of the game last year.

Couple that with the gifted games played at home and on the Gold Coast where they adapted and play very well.

No improvement whatsoever at all this year, extremely gettable in their backhalf.

I reckon they are very beatable.

Libba is the one you need to close down. As far as first dibs midfielders go, he is brilliant. On the outside the Bont and Caleb Daniel are very good also. While their midfield probably bats deeper, our back and forward lines are superior at the moment. Should be a fascinating clash in a couple of weeks time.

One of the things I give the coaches credit for this season is planning for opposition, no one has really got off the leash, and we gave Martin his first proper bath. Libba is awesome, have real respect for him, and I feel we will have a plan here.

Their midfield is Rolls Royce but we have them covered in every other department. Our defense and pressure game will take care of the doggies. No worries.

I’ve asked this before but how did the Swans give Aliir away for free?! He is a very good player. 

Salary cap squeeze i believe.

He's been a great pick-up for Port

If I had to choose I think I’d give ed his collywobbles gig back so i didn’t have to hear him comment...it is unbearable 

The quality of commentating in general is of a low standard. I listen to most games with the mute button engaged.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
