Again, take clearance away from the Bulldogs and they can't win. You beauty.

You've also got to wonder whether injuries to Dunkley and Treloar has lulled them into a false sense of security about their midfield strength. So many of their mids can be exposed going the other way. 

Dunkley & Treloar in that side really restrict the output of Smith & Hunter.

    I wonder if Dunkley is gettable for us. I'd take him.

    Correct my maths a bit wrong, probably don’t want to finish 3rd if we cop port in Adelaide

    This does not really help us. if we lose to Geelong and Port beat the dogs we play our first final in SA.  Have to win both games.

    I'm not sure, I'd rather Port in Adelaide than coping Geelong at KP (regional crowds in Victoria) for week 1.

    I don't really rate Port (I think they are the weakest of the top 4 sides) and we have a good record at Adelaide Oval.

    I’m not rude. Hi back right at you!

    I meant we don’t sew up top spot if Port win both games and we lose one.

    Commentators get a hard woody over the Bont. But Dogs have frozen in the last 2 weeks and the Bont isn’t Superman after all!!!

    Western floggers didn’t get the Umps armchair ride this week !!! 


    Hawks missing about 6 of their top 10 players.   Like the Bombers, Hawks have a good group of youngsters to start to climb backup the ladder.

    The odds in this game were mental. Dogs very unsettled going into Launceston and Hawks on a roll. Clarko little mongrel that he is giving Jeff the biggest two finger salute. His treatment appalling and Hawks have put enormous pressure on Mitchell. If they start losing expect supporters to bay for blood. Can only hope.

    Interestingly Spirit, Bont was caught with the ball on numerous occasions. Maybe a combo of Bont believing that no tackle against him gets rewarded and umpires reviewing the Bont - love in from last week.

    Are Dogs in a form slump? 
    Can we all agree Clarkson being dumped by Hawthorn is the worst call any club has made this 

     What year did Neeld come to Melbourne.

    Tom Stewart out for the season. Wowee. I don't think Geelong or the Bulldogs can win it this year. He is key to their defensive intercept game. They have to be all out attack now. HUGE!

    I could not pick a winner if it was shoved down my throat this year.

    Wow, the Bulls kick 5 only. 

    A bit of pick and choose when to play, or have they got some problems with their structures?

    In either case they have plenty to work on. They weren't close or even showed any real fight. It is not a good way to come into a final series.

    The game against Port, next week takes on more significance, they need to play well in order to build confidence.

    Could we stop speculating about finishing on top and start taking things one game at a time. We have a game to win tomorrow.

    My mfcss is kicking in with the thought of playing port in port town to be beaten and then have to play gws.

    Sorry.

    Agree. V Dees and V Bombers, Bont was caught and never got penalized.  Today the umps were fair and the Dogs couldn’t shake the Hawks.  If Dogs get umps favouritism they are hard to beat.  Otherwise very beatable!!!

    Correct. In that scenario we’d almost prefer to lose both. Although you really don’t want to go into finals losing 2 on the trot. 

     If I remember correctly the last time we did it we went out in straght sets. I mean being on top and losing the last 2 games of the year. I could be fried or pickled tho.

    In the Hawks v Bulldogs game it is interesting from player stats that the top 6 Bulldogs feature top of the stats  The rest mainly feature at the bottom end. This suggests quite a few passengers in the side. Although the top 6 also gat h er cheapies.

    Pretend you're seeing Yul Brynner in The King and I. Tough exterior with a heart of gold.

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.
