    Could be a close game

    PS to be honest I would rather clean my shoes and cut my finger nails.

    Gee whizz, it's a good thing the Pies had an extra skill session this week. This could have been a complete blow out otherwise !!

    Mitch Robinson ran right off his mark for that kick after the siren. How was that not play on? These rules do my head in. The ump said he was fine to do it.

    My god that game was pathetic. Although at the end part of me wanted the pies to sneak another to make it interesting. But this was a team 3rd on the ladder and they could only manage 8 goals. Collingwood was just as bad. They couldn't even kick a goal in 2 quarters. 

    We had kicked more goals at half time than the cats had all game. 

    On another note is it wrong of me to hope Grundy has done a minor injury and miss our game.

    The umps in the Pies game allowed a plethora of short kicks and "protected zone" invasions. They might not like the rules (and let's face it, some of them are bad rules) but they don't get to decide which ones to enforce and which ones not. The AFL don't care.

    It's an interesting season. The lions are well in front of GWS but not really looking that fantastic either.
    Mitch Robinson looks like the main one to stop. No other Brisbane player seems to be dominating.
    GWS look bog ordinary.
    Haven't seen a lot of Port so far though.

    Dees, Dog and perhaps the Lions and daylight to the rest.

    I think the pies have to give GWS their first pick this year can anyone confirm that?

    Yes I believe they do. Imagine handing the giants pick 2. ?

    I'm finding it hard to watch these crowdless games. The absence of crowd noise is manageable but for some reason they've stopped enabling the umpires mic on free kicks. Didn't think that would annoy me so much but stoppage after stoppage I'm left guessing if it's a ball up, holding the ball or some other decision.

    Pies v Cats: unwatchable.

    Lions v Giants: training drill

    Saints v Roos: is this AFL or VFL?

    Lockdown means time to watch footy and the footy is putrid.

    I guess they stop the umps Mike’s because they don’t want to broadcast the players swearing

    Noticed that Essendon were allowed into WA.

    Will be hard barracking for the Bombers but I will try

    It would be the end of this current board you would think. I think they are gone any way. It is very hard not to enjoy all this.Not that I am trying.

    Cameron has been threatening to have a big game. Hibbo will need to be alert next week.

    I thought this would be much closer. the Giants form has been solid but there first quarter was as bad as their game against Freo. Totally disinterested today.

    The pies are going to get the best player in the draft anyways in Daicos through father son. They would have to pay for him through points anyways so made sense for them to trade their future first last year rather than using it to pay for Daicos this year.  But its fantastic for GWS getting what will be a top 5 pick. They must be rapt watching the pies flounder.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
