Kinda want a Richmond win to knock freemantle down a spot. Useless gold coast.

    Will this be a draw?

    Richmond a genuine shot at this.

    Yup. Sydney are nowhere near their skill level by foot or hardness around the ball thus far this year. I think they have quite a few players out of form as they’ve lost their ruthlessness or something? They should be a much better team than Richmond.

    We're really getting robbed of having a decent crowd at our game by virtue of it being a double header and the Port fans most likely not being there for the majority of our game.

    Yeah, the crowds at the two double-header’s are going to be very interesting.  Looking forward to hear from those at the ground what it’s like because I don’t think the broadcasters will be very honest with the crowd size, especially during the first half of our game.

    Now that you say that, Because Freo and Suns played at a capacity of less than 10,000, would they get any compensation from the AFL considering they don’t have the ability to pull 20,000+ at a larger ground?

    What I think people are missing  is the fact that this round doesn’t dig into a Port home game. The AFL has said that all tickets to the double header tomorrow have been sold.
    If the majority of sales have gone to Port fans then yes, we could be playing in a not so filled stadium until Port fans arrive.

    I’m guessing each teams’ supporters had an even chance of getting tickets. I’m hoping to see at least a half full stadium for our game from the start.

    Were membership numbers required to purchase tickets?

    Weirdly, Papley is keeping Sydney in the game even though they’re winning

    Melbourne members got an email with a barcode back in December from memory about grabbing free tickets for Gather Round Viper. After that offer I’m not sure mate.

    Agreed. I'm always conflicted when it comes to Papley. I have a soft spot as I saw him play half a dozen games with Casey as the 23rd man top up in his draft year. And he's obviously a really good player.

    But he's also a complete goal hungry team mate who burns the others and he carries on like a total fl*g!

    • 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.
