Baker in a different role was worth a go but the backline isn’t it. Half forward next (at Casey)

Jordon stiff. Free kick was rubbish and we’ve got away with walking up as we returned the ball for years. Viney is Viney. 

jordon wasn't stiff, jordon was dumb

that's exactly why the 'time wasting' rule came in

Wasnt stuff. Was told twice to hand the ball back


If Carlton had a forward line (aside from Mackay) they might do some damage this year. But they’ll be 9-10th I’d say. Defence is average too

got The making of a good midfield though 

Carlton very scatter gun. Look a bit like Melbourne 2018. Could cause damage this year.

 

Fritsch again goes to ground laying an ineffective tackle.

What is up with him? Dees need to take the finger out - serious attitude issues.

Credit to Carlton though - they'll make finals based on this.

We look pretty flat, disorganised with less numbers at the contest. Lucky it’s just a practice match!

Sure but it’s a new rule and preseason, someone has to stuff up so the others have seen it

Being absolutely reamed by the umps I'd say.

Yep but we are looking very ordinary

Pretty insipid training run I must say. I get we have no back half but I’d expect some pressure around the ball at least.

Come on down Weed?

Our big guns are a bit off and we’re mucking around with it inside 50. Plus the backline is the backline.

Nothing too concerning so far, really it’s the result of winning a game by 80 points. 
 

Advice for the inside 50’s is take the easy ones.

Advice for the backline is stick more defensive then worry about rebound or intercepting.

Am I watching the same game as you blokes we had almost double the inside 50s and got unlucky a few times they aren’t even close to on top. 


Remember the last time we lost a pre season game? 
 

Spoiler alert: we won a flag 

No Salem or May. Pretty much doing ok. Only downside I can see is we are susceptible to a crumber. Hibberd usually fixes that quick smart so he is our biggest loss. 

If the new interpretations are anything to go by scrap them. The umpires have killed us.

Every bounce going their way so far. Agreed.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?
