I still don’t understand how this guy is so despised, like wtf?! 

It’s because he’s got long hair and enjoys it when he kicks goals.

Footballers must be homogeneous and humble.

This prompted me to see how the current top 8 sides have fared this year against each other:

Of the 40 games so far only 10 have been between current top 8 sides. 

Games played vs each other, In order of the current ladder:

  • Demons:  0
  • Lions: 1 (Beat Magpies)
  • Dockers:  1 (Loss to Saints)
  • Saints:   2  (Beat Dockers; Loss to Magpies)
  • Swans: 1 (Beat Cats)
  • Blues:  0
  • Cats:  3 (Beat Lions and Magpies; Lost to Swans)
  • Magpies:  3 (Beat Saints; Loss to Lions and Cats)

It looks like there will be a bit of a shakeout coming when these teams start playing each other (and some play each other twice).  

Saints, Blues, Dockers and Magpies would have expected 'easier' fixtures this year but given the 2021 ladder is a bit upside down that may not be the case.

The top 4 are still likely to be Demons, Lions, Swans and Cats.  Roll a dice for the rest and who might replace them.

Definitely going for the Hawks today ... not sure they are an ultimate threat (Hawks) but it would be great to see the Cats incur a setback

Talk already beginning that north should get a priority pick at the pointy end of the draft

 They aren’t even as bad as we were during the Neeld and early Roos years

that's the media for ya.  always looking to drag up some contentious point for the sake of a few clicks

It is not to often you would want to see a Hawrhorn victory but today is one of them. I hope they tear girlong apart or beat them by a point after the siren.

Serious question . . . is there any player at Essendscum that would get a game at Melbourne? And if so, who is the Essendscum player/s and who would they replace at Melbourne? 

(And Stringer is only an option if you're prepared to throw out the no _ _ _ _ head policy.)

Hard to think that in years gone by Easter Monday was probably one of the biggest home and away games of the year

We are still recovering from Lockdown 

Give it another 2 years and attendances will be back to normal

Hawks hardness opening up the cats defence like a tin of dog food. I don't reckon they can keep it up for 4 quarters, but any team that can will beat the Cats. Ruck going down changes the game - he was doing brilliant ruck work.

If you want to destroy the amazing culture we’ve built you can go get that fat [censored] Stringer. He is a cultural cancer. 
 

Now, let’s go Hawks. I am sick to death of Geelong.

    Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5 The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury. Date of Birth: 4 J

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    2024 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0
