You're reading too much into it 'Nev'

    No, it makes no sense.

    It'll be something like, Zorko said "your sister wears army boots", not knowing that during the week, Petty's sister was indeed found to be wearing army boots.

    For "army boots", substitute something far more intensely personal.

    Zorko probably didn't know that he'd touched a raw nerve, but when you're playing Mr Tough Guy, things can backfire on you.

    Could be distracted by the Petty issue or could be focused on finals because that is all that counts.

    Alan Richardson commented on it post game, Goody spoke about it in the presser, May talked about it post-match, so have most players. Clearly it's on their minds.

    They're trying to stay professional. They will let the relevant parties sort it out.

    Not that 'Nev' your talk about the players reaction in the rooms after the game is what I'm talking about and you know it.

    What are you on tonight???

    The Petty/Zorko thing is big, we all know that.

    They were all asked about it, they didn’t bring it up themselves… it’s funny how you tend to think about something when asked about it. Why the need to dramatise everything?

    Goodwin punting to the AFL means he is pretty filthy about it - didn’t diffuse it, just played a straight bat.

    The Lions head of footy didn’t contest what was said - only that Zorko apologised and so did the Lions.

    The best thing that could happen for the Lions heading into a game with the Tigers is for Zorko to be suspended.

    Give them a chance to win…

    Zorko is shizen under the finger nails. You can call somebody a [censored] on the field but if you call out some ones family member a [censored] you have crossed a bridge too far.

    Right, so it's a big thing, they're all commenting on it, but it's totally not effecting them... ok.

    Richardson literally sough out an interview after the game.

    Embarrassing how much you follow me around. Stick to the 'make off it what you will' routine.

    I've always felt like Dayne Zorko is a [censored]. I suppose this confirms it.

    They're copping heat already online for "faux toughness", which is very accurate. Zorko, Mathieson, Robinson, all pretty rubbish fellows.

    Zorko got caught stone cold holding the ball by Langdon in the first quarter and reacted by grabbing Langdon's hair and putting him in a headlock. [censored].

    I might be unique in this opinion but I’ve got respect for mitch robinson. Has always played hard, lived on the edge and got the best out of himself. Called is bruise free when we were.

    Zorko has always been a crap bloke. Look at his run ins with Touk Miller. He is the worst captain in the AFL by a mile. They will never win a premiership with him as captain

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
