Garry and Bucks on SEN this morning jokingly suggested the fourth most likely challenger to ourselves are the Casey Demons.

Bucks did alright then. He beat us in 2021.

    Kane Cornes reckons we're 15% better than our nearest rivals because of our defensive structure. I agree with him

    Now I'm worried . . . Kane clueless Cornes.

    Correct, but we were dominant last year and won it. So anything is possible. 
    We aren’t dominating right now we are definitely just pacing ourselves. If we finish top 2 I can’t see us losing the flag. 

    Listen to David King's podcast on Whately this morning. First 10 minutes. Your views expanded with facts.

    The Dees are scary (his words not mine) and have more statistical improvemnt in key indicators than any other finals bound team - hence the scariness of the Dees now, running at only 70% with areas of imporvement still in the wings.

    Whateley sees the Dees as a 20-2 or 19-3 team right now.

    Its a parallel universe I'm thinking. This can't be real?

    Geelong are a year older, and we are a year better, from an absolute flogging. We understand their game and can counter it.

    The only thing that might save Geelong on their day is Jeremy Cameron having a blinder, which he didn’t do last year against us. 

    And the Cats play at Kardinia Park - 30 metres narrower than a normal ground. That migtbh save them

    They don't in the PF or GF so it will be same old , same old for them and they will still wonder why and then blame gastro etcwithout facing reality.

    When the $100M stadium was planned and executed they missed the opportunity to re-shape K.Park. Huge long-term error.

    Over the summer, I would watch the GF on replay and laugh out loud at bang-bang-bang.

    Now the season's started I still laugh out loud when I read things like this, and some of the oppo supporters takes. The respect, the fear, the despair. It's good being premiers.

    Three rounds in, it is pretty clear that we don’t have to worry about any of the teams not in the eight. It seems to me that Carlton are ok but not great - we need to see them against real quality;  I can’t think clearly about Geelong because I hate them so much but I think they were flattered by playing against witches hats (Essendon) in the first round and were lucky this week. We seem to have Footscray covered. Brisbane are obviously a good team. Sydney probably. Who else?

    Godzilla, Mothra, Predator, The Great White Shark from Jaws 1, A space Ship full of Klingons,  Daleks, not even Dr. Smith would get anywhere near us at this stage!

    There's got to be a German word that describes something that seems like a good idea to exploit an advantage but actually entrenches a disadvantage. Something like Umsteigenzudenlinienfünfundfünfzig

    Are you saying Geelong are the invaders and the bacteria was the gastro game?

    Bigger picture rival...

    Lions 01, 02, 03

    Cats 07, 09, 11

    Hawks 13, 14, 15

    Tigers 17, 19, 20

    But this year I agree its the Lions then daylight. Only team with finals experience, star power and depth across every line to match Melbourne right now.  

    Wouldn't a Cats/ Dees Gf be a great event with Max getting a Norm and Scott the boot.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
