 West was won.

We went up against a side which was playing for a spot in the 8.  We were belting them, until the weather intervened.  Once again, the umpiring was atrocious.  I'll take a win the West anytime.

Fritsch - Did Bugger All

VDB - Worse than Fritsch

Umps - Played for Eagles

Absolutely nailed it 

How does Vandenburg get chance after chance. Was slow and dumb and missed two definite shots that should have been kicked

I think this is your best work Joeboy, that said, a touch understated on Bowey & Petty who I thought were outstanding.

James Harmes! A bit more humble pie as a late night snack for several Demonlanders, who wanted him banished. You know who you are.

 Bit harsh imo , guy got hurt in the first ten minutes. 
Speedy recovery Hunty.


Hunt - Taylor calls Langdon

...and the camera is right on his face as he's getting his ankle checked by the physio on the boundary line.

To be fair he couldn't see his number.

Also says gawn will struggle with tbe distance from 45 metres. 

The bloke is just about the longest kick in tbe team!

Petty doesnt do much wrong. Very good player as is Bowser who will be the most inexperienced player to play in a Demon premiership in at least 60 years.

 

Enjoy the next 6 weeks fellas.

TV commentators are dckheads mate. Amateurs.  One of the clowns was going on about how Melk cracks in week in week out.  I mean do some research. Every part of that sentence is wrong.

 

Sidenote: Melksham always plays well after a spell and then fades after a month or so.

 

Double sidenote: VDB is pretty ordinary and Sparrow is solid, i like him.

I agree on Gawn but Rivers can kick it post high from 50m out and go 20m into the stands. I'd back him to be the longest kick at the club.

Umps hate Melbourne

Thid state of affairs has become so very obvious. What can we do about it? It may not be hatred from the umpires, but it is condoned, approved, never questioned by the AFL and its glorious myth of an equal playing field - highighted by an abnormal free kick differential between sides playing the one game of football, week in and week out.

In the Dees' case, any progressive movement of the ball is interrupted and directly interfered with in a very arbitrary manner where the consistent application of 'rules' and 'interpretations' is grossly prejudicial and arbitrary to their continuing disadvantage.

It is time for Pert to directly question the AFL itself with mounting evidence of such flagrant abuse. There is a template for the detriment of the MFC in the approaching finals - well rehearsed and grossly invalid - but no-one seems to care.

Fritta to rest / be managed due to all the head bashing he received from the Eagles. Replace with JSmith.

Gawn swings his foot and leg in an arc to the left when kicking for goal. He should lead his kicking action from the knee with a bent leg and smoothly extend the knee joint when making contact with the ball.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.
