Christ is that still happening? I’m always on Foxtel so luckily can avoid that. 

channel 7 think BT is the reason people tune in

I wonder how much the ratings drop when that absurd, cringeworthy roaming bit starts?  If I hold on that long, it is definitely time to turn off.

A draw between Cats and Tigers would be nice - makes it a little harder for either feline to make top 4. 😼

Very wary of either team in the top 4 for finals.

Who are people tipping today?

Blues missing 8 best 22 players but still have their 4 stars playing…

If Freo keep their defensive structure they should win I reckon

I like when Essendon lose.

It's a pity Essendon, WC, the Dogs and Hawthorn couldn't all lose last night. What a horrible collection of teams.

How can anyone take this guy seriously?

Honestly, I respect him like I respect Brayshaw wearing a helmet. If you listened to his story. He almost became blind in both eyes from fingers in eyes on the footy field. And another one would make him blind. Wearing glasses means his able to play afl, despite all the flack that people who don't understand give him.

Blues have an uncanny way of transitional ball movement..

I do love this alternate reality we are living in where, we are the well run club, littered with All Australians going for back-to-back flags and Essendon are a laughing stock. Long May it last 

I was just about to type the exact same thing, but thought quoting you would suffice. But I want icing on the cake.

I want us to win the flag, North to win a couple, Cats to go straight out of the finals with 2 losses, Tiges to finish ninth, and the Bombers get the Wooden Spoon.

I have indeed read his story and do sympathise with him. 
I was referring to this particular pic.

Fell asleep at halftime and had the best sleep ever…now greeted by a great wake up. When was the last time the Eagles kicked 100+?

I think they  mentioned on the telecast that it was 28 or 29 games.

I find all 3 games today hard to tip. Freo should win but it is over here. Not a clue about geel and rich and who cares anyway.  Sydney you would think but St Kilda are close to the most schizophrenic side in the competition. Don't know what you will get out of them.

I’ve gone 

Carlton

Cats

Swans

Crows

GWS 

Port

No real justification for any of these results, just a gut feel. If anything I think teams are finding out that being switched on every game is more difficult than it sounds. I tipped the Eagles last night which has paid off.

Somehow Richmond get to play an ‘away’ game today at their own home ground against a team with a publicly funded stadium 50 minutes away?

Why is Chris Scott not whinging about this like he does every year about finals? This is why I hate Geelong. They constantly get it both ways, and complain about it only when it doesn’t suit them.

Collingwood often gets criticised for how many games it plays at the G each year, but clubs continually request to play them there because of the crowd they bring.

20+ years of being hopeless appears to have turned Carlton supporters into insufferable, foam at the mouth flogs. I hope they get pumped today. 

They were always insufferable, just had to hold it in!! :)

Schizophrenic was mentioned above. What is my diagnosis please?  I want Horethorn, Filth, Essendrugs, Jeelog all to finish 18th.  Happy for Bunt Road to finish 9th. 

“Do you have a 2nd Team?”

 

”NO…”

    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.

    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

    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.

    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

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
