Coburg has a debutant playing tomorrow named Dylan Thomas. I hear he’s poetry in motion.

That's coz each week he is versing another team.

    Could be quite a composed player under pressure?

    Based on the market above, you would think that playing Coburg at home is going to be a shoe in with 16 AFL listed players available.

    Toby Bedford is on track to achieve some sort of record this season. He’s been the sub for all 5 Melbourne games (activated once only in Round 1). This has enabled him to double up for each of Casey’s games this season so by the end of the day today he will have 9 games on the board. Five for Melbourne and 4 for Casey.

    As per the opening post, “ALL MATCHES ARE STREAMED ON AFL.COM AND THE AFL LIVE APP”

    And the latest update to the AFL app means it can be casted to your TV if you have a Chromecast.

    So does that mean if he has a number of as medical sub games he goes above the cut off for playing Casey finals??  No wait it’s based on games played for Casey isn’t it?

    Presumably the first ever Demons player to have featured in (at least) 8 wins by round 5.

    What’s wrong with Howes?

    I asked that too.

    I guess we will have to wait until we get an injury update from the club.

    Either way, let's hope it is nothing serious and Blake Howes will be back next week.

    I presume he goes above the cutoff for Rising Star nomination as well.

    A very interesting point you have raised.

    It feels like you are watching football in a phone booth. It doesn't help if all the play is on the other side.

    You expect that on a windy day at Casey Fields.

    Serious question KC.

    What, if anything could they do at Casey Fields to minimize the impact of the wind (other than build stands)?

    Both ends are open and the one time i was there (the roos practice match) i was thinking that perhaps some sort of wind breakers at the city end might help.  

    The wind ruins so many games down there.

    You would have to ask an expert that question. I suppose a couple of stands and a lot of tall trees would help.

    Coburg have scored their first goal and are looking dangerous again.

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
