Anyone get the feeling they might be in trouble?

    Only thing I have observed from this Swans v Blues game is Carlton’s lack of a sponsor on the shorts. Hope they don’t find one.

    OK, it’s the end of the working week. It’s Friday night and the Aussie’s have won in Indore. Time to settle in for some pre-season footy. Have a look a couple of clubs, take some SuperCoach notes and just chill on a beautiful Friday night. And then…….Dermie and Derwayne spoil everything. My god those guys are just the worst. Does Derwayne think Hollands has a good work rate???. Early rant over. Go Dees.

    the mute button is your friend.

    Tim Kelly stinking it up again.  With the benefit of hindsight, one of the worst trades in history (for Wet Toast that is, Geelong laughing all the way to the bank)

    Complete total waste of money and draft capital.

    You could call it a capital embarrassment come to think of it.

    Have liked the look of Ginbey. Sad seeing Hunt in Eagles colours but wish him nothing but the best. 

    Sure is. But I avoid the sadness simply by turning off the TV…

    Might have been just a practise match but the Weid di himself no favours. Sounds familiar.

    I actually thought they were both rubbish with one side flattered by kicking straight. Fair enough St Kilda are missing their forward line, but I didn't see much to write home about - the game looked like a race for the spoon. Parish was unforgivably pathetic. The bummers should trade him for someone who has a crack (practice match or not).

    I watched about 5 mins, looked like a total tyre fire of a game. 

    Was he wasteful or just plain insipid?

    Barely got a touch and jogged around. I hope for his sake, Scott told him to take it easy.

    Oskar Baker gets Dogs first goal.

    Played a very good first quarter and is Bevo’s standout pre season performer.

    You’d think he’ll play round one based one his first half today. Looked very good.  Could be Lachie Hunter vs Sauce on one wing and Bailey Smith vs Lingers on the other.

    My early prediction for Umpires’ Pet of the year, is Bailey Smith. 4 blatant holding the balls called play on and he gets touched and soft free.

    Dogs look great in bruise free games. Umps still love them too.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
