    Did you expect anything else? Both clubs have enormous supporter bases. Would have been the same last night of the crowd was 50/50 like tonight. It was more like 80/20

    ...no i didnt expect anything else.

     

    2 Flags against interstate Clubs, with an incredible run of Home games at The MCG and 1 against the ageing Handbags. 
    3 Flags, good luck to them, they are in the cabinet, but I don’t consider it a great Dynasty

    I am glad you asked .  I want to know what Deep Fake means (I don't think it has anything to do with bedroom sports).

    Yeah nah, that’s just a regular fake. The Deep Fake is what one might see in one of those ‘questionable’ movies. 😆

    Hope I’ve not offended anyone. If I have, totes soz (not soz)

    Deepfakes (a portmanteau of "deep learning" and "fake"[1]) are synthetic media[2] in which a person in an existing image or video is replaced with someone else's likeness. While the act of faking content is not new, deepfakes leverage powerful techniques from machine learning and artificial intelligence to manipulate or generate visual and audio content with a high potential to deceive.

    basically just faking audio visual stuff i.e. audio,  photos, video

    deep fake specifically referring to the more intensive hi-tech methodologies involving among things artificial intelligence programs (i.e. not simple cut/paste & photoshop)

    That one against the handbaggers was a Clayton’s Premiership. Shortened games, shortened season. Someone had to win it in a completely ruined season and the cards fell right for them.

    How ridiculous.

    They won three flags in four years.

    Let's revisit these posts after 2024.

    You can visit them every day if you wish  brisbane and Whorethorn were much better sides imo

    Voss has Covid and can't coach against the Dogs next week. Wonder is any players will miss.

    Round 1 signifies very little except renewed hope. 

    Tiges looked lethargic, except when  Prestia and Reiwoldt were up and about. I picked them for top 4, and still believe they will make it. Hardwick is a VERY good coach. Cotchin does look gone, Martin will take 4-6 to be back to his best, Grimes playing under pain and duress, Vlaustin out etc...

    Carlton looked good in terms of pressure and fightback, winning lots of clearances and contested possession, but their backline is going to be hammered by strong scoring sides like Dees, Lions, Dogs, Port, Geelong. They played well, but no way am I gushing over them. 

    Keep an eye of for new Bomber, Kaine Baldwin, who was the country’s best key forward prospect back in 2019 but two knee reconstructions and Covid19 left him unwanted and on the sidelines until rookied by Essendon. I thought at the time that he was a bargain pickup  - good luck to him tomorrow night at CHF.

    False sense of security.  Jobe Watson noted in the 7 coverage at 3/4 time that given the banged up Tigers midfield, Blues should run over them. They did,  despite Tiges going ok for 3 1/4's.

    A class midfield won't let this happen, i.e Dees, Lions, Cats.  Plus no way do the Blues have a premeirship standard defence.

    Welcome to AFL footy daicos. He will rue that kick.

    Is it wrong whenever I see Howe I just think we have a premiership & you don't.

     Josh Daicos joins the goal from your first kick in the AFL club. Just not one he will want to remember.


    Great to see De Geoy out there

    good to know you can allegedly forcibly touch/harrass a woman at a club and beat up her mate who stood for her and not miss a game.  AFL integrity

    And a reporter gets stood down for derogatory comment made about a woman

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
