When’s the podcast this week? I’m going to need to hear Binman’s overconfidence to calm the nerves. 

Monday night @ 8:30pm

I need it too.

I was brimming with confidence on Friday night and then I watched the Bulldogs game. I need @binman to tell me we got this to make it through the next 12 days or so.

    Andy: goooooooood evening demonlanders, the demons beat geelong by 83 points but with the dogs thrashing Port Adelaide in the other game my MFCSS is worse than ever and I can’t help but think this is just setting us up for the greatest of disappointments, losing the grand final in a repeat of 1954.

    George: If beating the cats three times in one season hasn’t cured your MFCSS yet nothing will.

    binman: Don’t worry Andy, we’ll smash em, absolutely smash em.

    This is perhaps the most accurate description of our podcast.

    One man's over confidence is another's being realistic!

    My two favourite lines from Titus’s Knee Jerk Reaction
     

    Max Gawn looks like a Viking, and he treated Geelong like it was a small medieval monastery on the coast of England.


    This pressure showed when Joe Selwood complained about a fifty-metre penalty given against him, which was like watching an arsonist complaining that they got burnt.

    If anyone is feeling bored or looking to get that warm fuzzy feeling I suggest watching the replay of this prelim and just take note through the entire broadcast who the no1 high five'r/celebrator/hugger is after every goal/spoil/pressure act.

    Tom "Fridge" Sparrow

    once you see it it's hard to not to notice how much of a team roll the kid played Friday night.

    The future is bright post Jack Viney!

    How was he, in the back of frame, jumping up like a fan in the front row when Maxxy clunked the pack mark in the third!

    I didn’t notice it live but after 16 replays, the goal ANB kicked in the first quarter was all due to Sparrow deliberately knocking the ball down to him after jumping over Esava. Kid is playing some sort of a role.

    Classic stuff, thanks @FarNorthernD. Napoleon had his "Waterloo" moment - Geelong had their "Lindesfarne" moment.

    (and no I'm not referring to Lindesfarne Tasmania)

    Watching the Prelim with the SEN commentary. Gerard Healey calling non free kicks for Geelong whilst frees the we get are lucky. I can’t work out if he dislikes Melbourne more than I dislike him

    The same in the Grand Final when Picket went down ahead of the Brayshaw goal, most were calling for a free to Pickett, taken high, but Gerard described it as “that was a serious throw from Kozzy Pickett”.

    What the hell are you talking about? Healy was on us from early in the season. Didn’t drop off when we had our dip mid year. Not everyone has a nefarious agenda against you.

    Yes, and he was super confident in his pre-game on the couch show tipping Dees by 4 goals.

    Pickett doesn’t get many frees for someone who cops a lot of head high tackles!! In comparison to Selwood is unbelievable!

    Melbourne torching Geelong in this game from  5 min mark onwards was excellent, and then to hear Coach excuse Scott topped it off! Just grand!! Max’s 5 was ok to, particularly the 4 in the 3rd, just outrageous!

    In my season rewatch I reached the prelim final last night. Unlike most games where I watch one quarter an evening this one I watched in one sitting.

    It is arguably the most comprehensive performance of the season. Other than missing a few gettable goals in the second? quarter it was near faultless.

    The GF was special and no one will forget that 35 odd minutes of domination but I think this game was the pinnacle performance wise.

    Obvious kudos to Max but the performances by Brown, Spargo, Petty ANB..the list goes.... on are what should stand us in good stead in the coming season.

    I’d have to watch them again but I felt the rnd 12 Brisbane game was our most complete, they were up and firing, have us a real contest… Cats were terrible the Prelim, god I love it!! Long may it continue.

    Thought I'd watch the Dogs v Port Prelim

    I had almost forgotten that we were fish and chip wrappers by Monday.

    Footy is a funny game

    I still find it amazing that Hinkley has kept his job. 
    i really like Ken as a person, but that Performance from Port, at Home, should have been a Coach Killer…

    What is he going to say to them now?

    Port were diabolical that night.

    Doubt they laid one tackle in the first half.

    I'm no Healy sympathiser, but Kozzie did just lift the ball up when on the ground. But he should have got the free for too high 3 seconds earlier. Ump squaring off?

    Healy drives me nuts when commentating as it seems he always looks for negatives.

    And do you notice how he inhales very loudly before making a comment!

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
