Featured Replies

Posted

hey everyone

I am hanging for Monday, and I am thankful that the AFL have scheduled us to play the lowly Hawks at the MCG

If we win by less than 70 I will be surprised

All these key players were woeful in round 1

Bruce

TJ

Yze

Green

Bate

Miller

Jamar

Davey

That is 8 guys that would be raring to go and atone for their pathetic effort last week

I am calling this a big win to the Demons. I feel sorry for the Hawks backmen already. Neitz and Robbo will kick 12 between them. Geez I hoe Zac Dawson plays

Melbourne - 22.13.145

Hawthorn - 10.11.71

Goals - Neitz 7, Robertson 5, Davey 3, Bruce, Green 2, Miller, Jones, White

Best - Bruce, Miller, Johnstone, Neitz, Robertson, Carroll, Jones

GO DEMONS!!!!

 

only 70 ?? i'm worried now ...you're sounding pessimistic !! :-)

Laughable..

Just who exactly is going to stop the Buddy Magic from happening?

Franklin is an overrated goose

He kicked 4 goals on MATTHEW WARNOCK in a PRACTICE MATCH and Hawks supporters creamed themselves

His marking ability for someone of his size is embarrassing

Rivers or Carroll will annihilate him.. Easily

It was actually Nathan Carroll for the bulk of it. Watch the replay...

Hawks by 30 on the back of Franklin's 6..

110 % agree :) :)

Carroll please take out Franklin

For me the dees win by between 70 to 100 pts

Neitz will kick 9 to 10 goals

someone in the carpark hehe

Dees by 30 for me, davey ,robbo and neitz to kick allot of goals

 
thanks yze magic, i feel a bit better now :)

Yep me too, thanks YM :D !!!

Perhaps if you watch the replay you'll note that when Franklin kicked his goals, he was on Warnock...

I'm not quite as optimistic as YM however.

Correct

And in fact three of Franklins goals were a direct result of Melbourne defensive errors (not Carrolls'). I know that doesn't help the cause in arguing a Melbourne victory but lets not give Franklin too much credit. He would need a couple of Melbourne players to go down injured during the course of the game to kick 6.

If Melbourne got any sort of meaningful contribution from these 3, that would be a bonus.

As for Franklin, the guy can play. If he actaully was able to mark above his head, he would be in the elite of the AFL. As it is now, he is just a very good player who can be very dangerous on his day.

Melbourne to win by 36 points.

This might sound odd but as long as we play a better brand of footy i'm happy. If we play an aggresive, attacking, running game and get it to our forwards quick, and lose, i'll cop it sweet.

If we chip it around and lose i'll give up.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

  • NON-MFC: Round 08

    Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
