Lucifer - sadly I think your prediction is spot on. They won’t let GW$ play without a ruckman …… now if it was someone in different color, say red and blue, or red, white and black, maybe blue and white vertical stripes then it would be “we must stamp this out and the head is sacrosanct this week - 4 to 6 weeks.”

Nah … not even NATO could turn a blind eye to that one . Has to get weeks.

 

HUDDO (referring to a last-second goal by the bombers): "That was just what the Essendon doctor ordered." 

That phrase means something different to most of us than it seems to mean to Huddo.

It caused a chuckle at ours. 

 

It’s surprisingly entertaining watching two teams constantly mess up things our players can do in their sleep these days. 


Can I dare to dream that the Bummers could lose to the Crows at home?

Go the crows.

 

Essendon ruckman looks a bit like one of the Droogs in Clockwork Orange

That last kick inside 50, they had three to kick to and choose the bomber player.

Abit like watching the women yesterday.

Well Well Well Well

Starting to think St Kilda are a chance to feature in prelim final week.

Both clubs had a brief taste in 2018 and 2020 and then had down years.

Why not them?

A goal fest at Marvel in the first half.

Love it @Lucifers Hero

Not a pot at you at all...and isn't there a massive shift in the supporters understanding and THUS the language used by us, because we now have a lens of what 'works' to win football matches consistently. It's also not just our - defense (back 6) running parallel to the strength of our 'defence' is still the system - which I still count as a a Goodwin version of gengenpressing.

Gold Coast well on top here. excellent around the ball but wayward in front of goal

They have a couple of good ruckmen and a decent midfield. King and Membery are good forwards backed up by the smaller likes of Greisham. I think that are definite finalists.

Come on Gold Coast

Yes I only just realised I don’t watch non-Melbourne games to see who wins, but rather to barrack for a side to lose. Huge shame that the Bombers got up, the Hawthorn match is looking promising and hopefully the wheels can fall off the Carlton bandwagon. I’m not a nice person.

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    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.
