Cats 72 Hawks 29 at half time.
Cats look close to full strength. Hawks I wouldn’t have a clue.

Cats’ new recruits in Bruhn, Bowes and Henry have been impressive so far. I know it’s only Hawthorn they’re playing, but good to have some footy back on the box.

    Hawthorn look a hot mess

    Yep, I’m switching over to watch the Weid.

    I took a look at the Hawthorn game and in 20 seconds saw a Hawk defender a mile out of position and then body-tackle Jeremy Cameron while Cameron took a mark anyway, and then a Hawk under not much pressure kicked to a wide open runner on the wing who failed to control the ball and watched it dribble out.

    Result is all Cats but not in a way that says much about their prospects, just that Hawthorn don't have it together.

    Acceptable.

    Now. Is it possible?

    I could not watch anything today or tomorrow.

    could someone put up a “ training report” or anslysis of what happened in the other matches. With a comparison through rose colours perhaps against the mighty Dees!

     

    thanks if you can

    That's delicious. I can't wait until the day we talk about Geelong like this.

    We did after the '21 Prelim.

    It's a shame they went and won it the year after.... would've been nice if that was their last finals run ending in an 80 point drubbing.

    Even when Essendon win a practice match it still annoys me. 

    To soothe your soul @dees189227

    6,746 days since Essendon last won a final.

    Blues 31 - Pies 13 at Q1

    Harry McKay with 3 goals. De Koning in ruck and taken a few speccies with a goal as well. TDK looks built up physically compared to 2022.

    Yes, but since Essendon last won a final, we've won 7 and a premiership.

    Post of the day. Thanks.

    Collingwood still very accurate in front of goals.

    I would kill for us to have their accuracy. Would have won most games by 100 points last year.

    Anyone know why the Bulldogs and GWS aren't playing Match SIMs this weekend?

    A poster the other day mentioned on here the Giants didn't want to travel to Ballarat. That's the only thing I've seen on it.

    Apparently that’s the reason; GWS refused to travel. Bulldogs are now replacing that match with an intraclub match.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
