Martin Pike says hello!

The Pike and Love Shack situations are barely in the same suburb, let alone ball park.

Its a long season and I very much doubt TMac and BBB at 30+ will be right to play all 22 games + finals (hopefully)...so we will need Josh at some stage 

Yes.  Highly likely one of them will get injured or drop form. Schache has an opportunity to prove he is more than just a depth player as some call him.

If we are being honest he is like Weid but with a bit more versatility and adaptability. Can play fwd or back He can actually take a one grab mark which was Weid's downfall IMO so all in all its a slight upgrade

Yes.  He's an upgrade on Weideman.  I think his best position is half-back.

Having the mongrel is easier said than done....

I think that part is innate, very difficult to develop it

I used to know someone connected with the Bulldogs FD who told me that Schache was the least competitive AFL footballer he had seen. Sounds harsh, hope he's proven wrong at a 3rd club

Yep, but two clubs have already let him go.  That's a bit of red flag for me.

Red and blue flag sounds just right

Watts was ahead of your other failures to compete. He at least had skill to back up what attributes he had.

Which really made him all the more disappointing

Not a lot of love for Josh’s debut for the red & the blue.

A return of 3 & 4 goals in his only outings for Casey has me optimistic on a strong showing against the Kangas.

Good luck Josh - 3rd time lucky

The low expectations could surprise a few. I’m glad he doesn’t have his No 2 draft pick over hanging him. I hope he does well.

I hope he kicks a few, he has talent and can play in multiple positions. He played well against Jackson last year and had the better of him in the ruck and when Jackson went forward. 

Good luck to the lad. Weids is playing like a man at the bombers so I have hope Shaq will reinvent himself too.  

Who would have thought we'd line up without Ben Brown or Tmac in the F50 without injuries being an issue. I'm stoked that the FD are taking a look at the whole squad and aren't scarred to mix things up. 

Still only 25 , plenty of upside good kick at goal . Hope he goes well. Bbb and tmac will be done by the end of next year if not before

T Mac has been bog ordinary this seaon bar 1 game vs Meth coke magoos! He wont be around next year. BBB was excellent sans his back injury and should go around for another year again. Both Jake Melksham and Hibbo will not be around next year. And by the way I hope Shacky Attacky kicks a bag this week.

I hope he has a lovely brunch with friends in Hardware Lane on the morning of the game 

Check.

Mate.

Was expecting he would have beefed up his upper body if not by his 2nd club, then his 3rd club. Needs the extra kgs in my opinion. Apparently mfc asked him to also but can't see any  evidance of it at training. His form in vfl late last year and now this year has been exceptional though. Good time to take a look at him.

  • 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.
