Carlton v Richmond is so hard to pick 

i have changed my tip 3 times already 

Both sides have big deficiencies 

Does it matter.. the winner will be showing premiership form

The loser..a strong showing but coach X needs to address............

Not sure why putting Round 1 AFL fixture into Google produced GWS playing both South Australian teams. 

Noticed that too, it's a worry because I rely on google for the fixture a lot.

I think Carlton win by 24+, can't understand the hype about the Tigers.

I'm often wrong so get on Toiges tonight and for Top 4.

The hype is because of Taranto and Hopper, time will tell if it’s warranted. I personally don’t think so and in many ways this season is their last roll of the dice for Martin, Cotchin & Riewoldt. I’ve tipped the tigers on the back of they know how to win and Carlton is overrated and Walsh isn’t playing. I have tigers playing finals but that’s about it.

West coast

Bears

MFCSS

Sydney ( not convinced )

AFL assistance package.  Obviously one of the SA teams will not turn up, will forfeit the game and GWS will be gifted 4 points.

I usually wait for the AFL to post their nice graphic of the round's matches on Social Media but I think I will open this thread earlier in the week as a place for the discussion of the upcoming non-Demons matches. Currently there really isn't the place on here for that type of discussion so we'll see how it goes.

Agree @Dee Zephyr. Will be lucky to make the 8. Will quite possibly fall of the cliff.

So many pundits are still very bullish on the Tigers and I just don't understand it.

These same pundits will be saying the Blues are strong Premiership contenders when the Blues have a big win tonight.  God help us.

Carlton should win easily. The Tigers are old and the Blues forwards are the best in the comp

I predict the talking points to be West Coast winning well and Port winning.  I reckon Port will do well this year and beat the Lions first up.  They have some new recruits and it would be typical of Ken to pull a great season out of his backside when he on the chopping block

Freo could end up with a North implosion style 2016 season.

Their draw as a possible finals contender is astonishingly soft. Their first 5 are all gimmies not incl Bulldogs in R6 Perth.

Only 4 tough games by R16. They have a tough July early August thats it.

If theyre not top 4 by R16 theyre junk. 

They could be on top by R16 then crash  to 6- 8 by R23.

Gil McLacklan handed them a finals berth on a silver platter. Hes a living train wreck that guy. Worst ever commissioner.

The AFL finally have their opening round blockbuster between Carlton and Richmond.

Can someone tell me when they became a thing for the opening round.

Of course most games have been a snorefest but even I will watch this one until half time

    BATTLE OF MORDOR by Meggs

    Shadows form over Middle-Earth as the two oldest football clubs in the land Melbourne and Geelong take battle for the very first time for 4-points, down at Kardinia Park (aka Mordor). If you dare, come venture down the highway and support our talented team. Melbourne’s Season Eight form line is 4 zip and we’ve been playing some scintillating footy.  The fanbase is growing.   It needs to be said that our opponents so far have hardly been top shelf: Collingwood sits 12th on the

    SISTER ACT by Meggs

    In the twilight at Frankston Oval, for the first ever match between Melbourne and Hawthorn, the Demons were clinical winning by 59 points and remain undefeated in Season Eight.   The Melbourne team ran out to a wonderful #DeeArmy banner paying tribute to Ron Barassi, ‘a football legend, the greatest Demon’.     So true!   Meggs was super excited to see Irish recruit Aimee Mackin playing her first game.  Aimee quickly showed us that she belongs out there with composure, ga

    ON SONG by Meggs

    Meggs asks is it time to heave ho the melodies and words of yesteryear and update Club theme songs with some Australian composers and singers?     What prompted this reflection was the discovery that this week’s combatants’ themes were written by the same early 20th century American composer, George M. Cohan.     Cohan’s melodies The Yankee Doodle Boy and You’re a Grand Old Flag have been used by Hawthorn since 1956 and Melbourne since 1912.   Even earlier, the clu

    RUN UNBEATEN by Meggs

    The Demons withstood a spirited challenge from the Western Bulldogs in the 10th anniversary of the Hampson-Hardeman Cup to run away with it in the last quarter and take their unbeaten run to 12 wins on the trot, an AFLW record.   The Doggies were tenacious and their losing score of 6.5.41 was the highest score against Melbourne since their last loss against Brisbane in Round 4 on 18 September 2022.   With the sad passing of AFL football legend Ronald Dale Barassi, champion player

    LEARNINGS OR BURNINGS by GOTO

    Well, the 2023 season is over for the Demons after a two point loss to the Blues in the First Semi Final. All season WE have been hearing about the “learnings” that the team needed to make after each loss, but how much have we actually learnt when they:   1. Lost four successive finals at our own home ground;   2. Fell in five of their last six losses despite having more shots at goal and in the sixth, they had an equal number of shots;   3. Lost seven games by under two
