I wish Id followed my own advice pointed out the dogs were at three dollars twenty for some strange reason

    The ball hits the ground and there are 4 Dogs to 2 Port. Port's lack of intensity is appalling. 

    And simply not handling any pressure. So much fumbling

    Just imagine if the umpires hadn't gotten the Dogs home last week with all that BS umpiring. We'd be playing Port or Brisbane in the GF.

    Still makes me angry.

    Wow so many similarities to last night. Port are slow, second to the ball and the Dogs are taking their chances! Geelong and Port were not PF teams and both teams were basically witches hats! We have beaten the doggies twice this year too and with no injuries on our end we have to stay positive and trust this new Melbourne team in the Granny! Go Dees!

    Well this is a disaster. 

    Agreed. We should’ve just lost to the Cats last night to put our minds at ease.

    Is there a worse coach in the AFL than Ken Hinkley? 
    Tactically he is awful.

    I might have a look at the Big Footy/Port forum.

    I'm sure they'll be blaming the coach.

    Of course - as the players left at half time, were the Port fans booing Dogs, their own players or coach?

    Dogs are +26 in contested possessions and +9 in clearances.

    Hard to beat them with that level of midfield dominance.

    In fairness, they are getting them vs Port not us.

     

    PS - and they aren't even needing to throw (much)

    If l recall, last time we played Dogs we kicked innacurately & got within 4 points of them in the last before they kicked away. We can beat Dogs in 2 weeks just gotta take our chances.

    Dogs on a wide ground scare me but if May gets up i think we have their forwards covered.

    As much as Gawn won't play a game again like last night, Mitch won't play another like tonight.

    We really need to show up at the contest though. Everything is built from it, the Dogs have A grade mids on their wings and bench.

    Take courage from 2018, Eagles and Pies smacked their opponents before playing one of the best Grand Finals you will ever see.

    The two best teams will play off.

    We wouldnt want to sneak by any team.

    This will be a good GF.

    I don’t think i have ever seen a team play so badly in a Home Preliminary Final

    This could cost Hinkley his job if it continues in the second half

    We know how they will play on Lever at least. 
    Who takes Naughton? Gonna have to be Smith - nobody can match his athleticism.

    Doggies are still vulnerable down back so we will need a huge effort in the midfield but I think our brand is better suited to finals. Port is just flattering them tonight.

    Their mids dominated also, I’d think ours would give a better showing this time round.

    Sets up a ripper of a GF

    Who cares about a good grand final? I want a boring thrashing from Melbourne

    Port HAVE to come out and crack some heads. Lycett and Dixon should have free reign to jump on the Bont’s knees 

    Port have had the extra week off, no quarantine, sleeping in their own beds and no injuries and at home! They will never live this down unless they come out breathing fire.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
