Walsh out is a blow but he did nothing last week anyway. Lets just hope the hawks can beat dogs as I think Carlton played their final last week. I hate to say it but the filth will probably win. Unlike others I would like to play the filth first up and to give those low life amoebas a good thrashing.

Almost every dees defender has put in some spud games this year but would you drop lever ? Impossible.Its a tough competition.

Walsh out would be a huge loss for the baggers.

    They beat us. They’re a glass cannon, their best is very very good, their worst is very very bad.

    Sorry a bit off topic but arises out of the dogs hawks match.  An example of the AFL not thinking clearly about the rules they come up with. 
     A player is on the ground and an opponent pushes the ball under him hoping to get a holding the ball free for pulling it in. The umpire tells them he is not paying the free.  Quite right. But why not penalise the player who pushed it under?  The “pulled the ball” in rule was instituted to stop players holding up play. Whether you pull or push the effect is to do just that. So it should be a free against whoever did the action to hold up play.  Why not?

    I’ve often thought this

    This is why I wouldn't be putting the house on Geelong to win the flag just yet.
     
    In 2022, Geelong played against teams in the current top 8 only 7 times. They haven’t played a current top 8 side twice. They also haven’t played a current top 8 side for 5 weeks and they’ve played West Coast and North twice.
     
    Melbourne have played against current top 8 sides 10 times this year. We’ve played Freo, Collingwood and Brisbane twice, and only played West Coast and North once.

    They also have poor final performances in the back of their heads.

    We go in as the "invincibles".

    Hoping we maintain that confidence.

    I thought Kent was to play his 100th and last game? He is named as emergency. 

    surely they wouldn’t insult him by having him as sub for a fake ‘game’

    Would like to see him get a run late in the game and nail a couple of goals, that effect the percentage enough so we end up 2nd.

    Addit: have the med subs been named yet?

    There's been more  "in swing" and "out swing" today than during a test match.

    Dogs need around two more goals to edge the blues out of finals 

    they have the breeze in the last so should get it done

    Want Dogs to win so then Baggers will need to go all out and with pies also needing a win to stay in 4 it could be on for young and old.

    One can only assume, despite his so called 'name', he's cheap.

    why is it that a player can be out of bounds and play on while out of bounds and it not be called out of bounds? Sidebottom moved off his mark while out over the boundary, seen other players play on by running outside the boundary line before kicking. am i missing something

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
