    He reminds me of Sandy Roberts before Sandy lost his marbles in the later years at Fox.

    hard to get over the fact that it sometimes seems like a race call too :)

    I reckon BT has definitely toned down his nutso look-at-me commentary from previous years. Whether it's a direction from the higher-ups, or that brief stay at hospital last year, he's much more bearable to listen to as well this year.

    I hear you, Bingers. I’ve let Essendon live rent-free in my head for decades. Recently a friend asked me who I think I might barrack for if Melbourne ever ceased to exist *shudder* He was shocked when I said probs Essendon 🤮 (Soz reflex action). My logic being: The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference. Therefore, I think I’d have an easier time converting my intense and undying hate for Essendon into love of a similar degree. The path from indifference to love would be so much longer.
    Hmmmm, maybe I need to see a therapist. 

    Lol- even text predictor knows how much I hate that loathsome pack of ferals…

    Hope Carlton supporters hopes aren't dashed before we get a home game against them later in the season.

    They are coming out of the woodwork that's for damn sure. My uncle has been to a handful of games in the last 20 years, just bought 4 game memberships for his family and went today. Had to let him know it was at the G and that Carlton don't play at Princes Park anymore.

    Now you've said it can't unhear it.

    "They go 'round the wing" was said exactly like it was a quinella of horses being unleashed on cup day.

    I’ll give you points  2 and 3, RTG. But not so much point 1.

    So, the opposite of love is hate. Except it’s totally not. Psychology 101 right there. 😊

    If Melbourne folded I'd be lost to footy.
    Couldn't stomach supporting any-one else.
    Hate them all in varying degrees.

    Fair play to the Saints. They always find just the right mix of overpriced crocks, front runners and mediocre talent that will see them finish mid table for infinity.

    A flag went begging for them in the late aughts, and there might be a fair wait for another legit chance for them.

    Entertaining game between the Tigers and the Saints today though.

    Does BT sign off on Ling’s contract? At least 12 times today he’s said ‘Great call BT’ when literally all he’s done is call the play (his job). It’s excruciating.

    Can anyone confirm if Tom Lynch is on the field?

    Reiwoldt is out and he needed to stand up.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
