The week after the bye is never easy and the local derby against an improving Frankston will be a challenge for the undefeated Demons.

VFL: Local Derby for Demons

Our VFL side takes on Frankston in round 10 of the Smithy’s VFL season. The Dolphins would be the closest VFL club only 30 minutes down the road and have won their past two games on the trot to turn their season around. The last time we faced off against the Dolphins was back in 2019 when we prevailed in the wet by 5-points in the last game of the season over an improving Frankston outfit.

The action starts at 2:05 pm, Sunday 29th May; Gate 1 for GA will open from 12:00 pm.

Would have been a good game for Salem to have one or two quarters

Used to really like the VFL but it's going backwards

Might help if the two comps got their schedule synced a little better.  Seem to be terribly out of wack.

At least this way we can watch both matches and the sub can play for Casey if he doesn't get a run with MFC.

I meant not having the buy in rounds where AFL affiliates dont have the buy, starting the VFL season so late.  I didnt mean we'd be better off if they were exactly synced as in playing the same day/time etc 55 so i believe we're probably on a similar page here.


When are the lineup announced?

Buy means BYE DD and the issue is 2 different organisations run the competitions.( as you know)

 AFL  and VFL so it is pure chance one would think if the fixture in VFL took anything into  account about the AFL. Draw especially with a " very friendly flexible floating fixture " that sees us off FTA for 5 games in a row vs Dogs Friday night favouritism despite poor early season form. 

 

No team released yet ?

Boys have a couple of interesting weeks coming up. After Frankston on Sunday, curtain raiser v. Sydney at the MCG then pies at home.

For those considering a trip, Frankston is a lovely ground with glimpses of the bay through tall pine trees.

On a Sunday nearby parking is easy and they used to have a delightful sausage sizzle.

Suggest you go over to the far side from the entrance as many of the locals who congregate on the entrance side were quite well lubricated and vocal when I was last there

I thought JVR might actually be able to push for senior selection.  Definitely better option than Weideman in my view. 

Weid has no future at AFL level.

Is this match going to be shown live anywhere? If yes, could someone please post a link. Thanks. 

AFL website or app

What time does it start?

2.05pm

Hoping Laurie has a good game and can push for a debut and take Melkshams spot in the team as a high half forward. AMW also was looking fantastic before his concussion, hopefully he can pick up where he left off.

 

This just confirms to me that clearly we’ve had a bit of illness go thru the club this week. Trac sick. Majak sick. I assume JVR is too.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
