I expect them to have an extremely tough draw in the 2nd half of the year.

    As much as I dislike their coach Lord Farquaad.

    They probably deserve it this year.

    And just like that, geelong now become the hunted, everyone will dissect their game plan and will play their granny against them every week, they have the weight of expectation. 

    They might be able to handle it fine but I'm glad our boys can have somewhat of a break from the overwhelming expectation we had every week. 

    With a short pre season and an average list age of 98, I don’t know how they go back to back. But I never thought they would win it this year, so what do I know

    Don’t hold your breath. 19 games in Geelong straight coming right up. Special nursing home concessions.

    What a damp squib

    Swans won't be a factor next year. Not after this shellacking.  I'm not convinced by the pies or Lions

    It's us v the cats in 2023. I'm looking forward to it already

     

     

    100% they will.

    Up there with one of the dullest grand finals in history. AFL should be very disappointed with what was produced today. Geelong a good team, but not a great team. Melbourne 2021 would have monstered both teams today

    Bulldogs didn't recover after we belted them.  The same will happen the Swans I reckon

    Sydney are too disciplined and have too much good young academy talent.

    And with a few minutes to go,  BT says Gil must be happy with the half time entertainment without a hint of irony.

    No they won't. 

    Bloods culture?

    You're kidding. First time I've left a gf at 3 quarter time. Franklin passed it 

    May unlocked the secret.

    Dees will be better next year and at least provide a contest.

    Should have been us in the granny. Better team than the Swans but just couldn't find a way to beat them, disappointingly.

    And the loss to the Lions. Even more disappointing.

    The offseason is all about improving the team and list, coming back hungry with a clean bill of health, refresh the game plan and we should be seriously challenging again

    Isaac Norm is great. I dunno, it's good that Geelong fans can give Hawthorn fans cr*p ablut that. It's like the two things cancel each other out

    Swannies were very very average. Also playing Sam Reid underdone and dropping Logan McDonald is a HUGE mistake. 
    We would’ve done far better than this, play four quarters in the game against Sydney and we would’ve, we blew it. On to next year. Cats another year older. Bring it.

    A fit Melbourne the only team that could have got close to the Cats this year.

    Makes me more confident that the Dees game plan still stacks up - will be interesting to see how the Pies and Swans play next year.

    But Cats are the team to beat next year. They’re strong, fit and there’s no clear weaknesses across the ground.  We need to respond.

    • 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.
