Try again.

This is your opinion and you have every right to post it? Absolutely. 

Posting it serves a purpose and is therefore necessary? Absolutely not. 


I’m soooo not having a go at you. (I was gonna let it go through to the keeper but the middle of the bat was too tempting.) Sadly, exercising tact is fast becoming a lost art form. Had I posted such, I’d appreciate having it politely pointed out.

How funny we are getting the good timeslots & hawthorn are in the 1:10 slot. 

Although I never minded that timeslot. You got home earlier & could grab lunch beforehand

In a round concocted by the AFL to give every team a reasonable chance of winning it's interesting that Carlton v Richmond is the only "pure" match and even that could be described as close.

Anyone who picks 9 this weekend certainly has my respect:

Richmond

Collingwood

Geelong

Swans

Lions

Hawks

Adelaide

Eagles

Would eight earn respect, as well?

 

Eagles are discovering how irksome is the 'graveyard' time slot: 

“One of the things that drives us mad is these late games on a Sunday,” he said. “It’s not just our country members... I’ve got a lot of mates who are in the bush and telling us ‘We just can’t get to the game’. I hate that. “It’s not the right thing to do, given there would be people in Melbourne who don’t realise how vast out State is and how far people have to drive or fly to get here.  Only complicating matters is the fact that Monday is a school day, which Nisbett added makes it “extremely difficult for families” to make the trip for Eagles games".

You’re gonna lose anyway you muppet. Save your fans the trip in and just concede the game.

 

I thought a bigger deal would’ve been made of Horne-Francis’s first goal. Like, more players getting around him.

They are just diverting, they know their spineless fickle supporters don’t come when they are crap so trying to blame the crowds they will get on AFL

Horne-Francis and Ward look comfortable at the level already. The circle jerk over Horne-Francis by the commentators is a bit over the top though.

Poos & Wees v Norf ... terrible standard. Like a country football match.

Not wrong. 
 

You’d think it was blowing a gale and pouring down rain!

so hard to watch, even with fox commentary turned off


Gee Jayden Stephenson is a liability.

I have actually found the game entertaining but these two teams are bottom 4 for sure. Sullied by the incredibly poor skill level and Hawthorn winning.

Hawks will finish the round top 4 possibly… isn’t that a laugh 😂 


Strange to have the wooden spoon decider  in round 1.

I learnt 1 thing from this arvos match. Will have to watch the umpires when we play Hawthorn. If I barracked for North then I would be fuming.

If these 2 teams win more than 10 games between them this season I would be shocked.

One of my pre season punts was on Norf to have the least wins in the comp.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
