I've lost interest in the games on this evening. I've flicked over to the Commonwealth Games where we've already snagged another 3 gold

I flipped to Kayo Cazoo Golf Open .... no idea where it is or if anyone good playing but the best thing is BT is NOT  on the commentary team.

EDIT - update .. it is the Wales Open.  Don't recognise any name in the field, (though all are awesome as they must regularly shoot well under 100 😱)

Are you serious?  There would be hundreds of brilliant  child athletes in America and Europe  that have never heard of the Commonwealth games. Its embarrassing. Dump it.

Give me AFL in Bangkok anyday.  Even the Corporate Olympics are boring.  Gold medals? Who did those social media knobs  beat?

Embarrassing .

Bring on Carlton next week. Thats action

The flag is Geelongs to lose, sealed top spot and resting blokes. Would be nice spot to be in

Had we kicked straight in about three more games we would be safely in top 2 as well.

MEMO Goody - big task on the off season.  Kick bloody goals, both set shots and under pressure.  I don't know how one teaches that sort of thing, but then I am not on the big bucks either.

Just because you've given up doesn't mean the rest of us have.

It won’t matter who wins because at present our forward cannot kick a winning score. Top that off with opposition teams have worked us. How do you alter those two items?

That's rubbish od. Pretty sure we won 8 days ago, forwards kicked a score, Freo didn't "work us out".

We had the opportunity to kick enough last night and let chances go begging. 13.11 usually enough to win and we left a handful of goals out on the field. It's frustrating but it's not doom and gloom.

Poor kicking Is poor football. And in the end we didn’t win. Yep and in between the dogs and pies beat us. It’s not rubbish, just keep at us and we will crumbly in the last quarter. We kicked 2 goals to 4.2 in the last. Nothing poor there just outscored in fact doubled our total.

You said our forwards cannot kick a winning score - they can

You said we have been worked out - we haven't

Um so if Sydney and Brisbane win by enough we slip to 5th correct?

Sounds like a multi worth having given the way things have gone for us this year ie relying on  others as we continue to merde Le bed 

Don't forget the maggots will be instructed to make the scores skewed to either get us down over the next two rounds to sit as low as possible in the eight, and that is a fact.You watch the Frees over the next two weeks.

And still we lost. I think we are never going to agree on this one Dr.

We lost one game - you are talking in absolutes.

I think we have seen enough to disarm Geelongs plan - similar to Pies. You guessed it, unrelenting pressure all over the ground with a sprinkle of defensive jobs and hard tags. .

whether we can execute is another matter. Next two weeks will give us a real look into the attitude and commitment.

 

I reckon Sydney are a real shot to be one of the grand finalist for this year.

Collingwood or Geelong the other.

We’ve just been far too inconsistent since round 11 and starting to lose games in Victoria on a regular basis to be considered a flag contender at this stage.

We do play #freekickcarlton next week. Expect Curnow and McKay to get a few soft ones paid.

If you allow rules to be broken across the spectrum of the game, any team can win. Cite holding, pushing, scragging and throwing and winging. Along with rulemakers favourites.

Bs Bris need to win by 70+ to overtake us percentage, not happening

edit, sorry replied to wrong post saying we could finish this round outside the 4, can’t happen

If Maxy and Clarry were paid frees every time they were infringed, our differential would be better than the Dogs. Not happening. Umps seem to have a mindset to only pay us obvious frees, where there is no room for interpretation. Must think we don't need them.

If so, it's time for them to re-think. 😁

I can imagine how Langdon's family felt about him having an "attempted burial" during a game. It was a disgrace and a terrible look for a potential team of thugs.

 

Great to see the W. Bulldogs gone for 2022. Just goes to show that cheating and getting the rub of the green week in week out doesnt pay dividends. Couldnt of watched if we played them in an elimination final with the umpires applauding Bont as he runs down the race. Grossly overated team.  2016 flag was a fluke assisted by the maggots.

I wish posters would stop saying the other clubs have figured us out everytime we lose.

What if Geelong lose to the Suns in QLD. Its possible.Theyre not the same team away from the cattery.

Are you going to say the Suns have 'worked them out'.

Only in AFL with AFL commentators could a player not get a free for either the initial tackle or the pile on just because he had said something 'insulting' during the week.  What a circus.

    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.
