what is it about Hoges, never takes a game apart. should have 5 and they’d be home

If he could kick straight he'd be B+ to A grade.  Such a commanding presence and a beautiful mark

Wouldn't mind him in our team right now but that's the stuff of dreams.  Bridges might have been burnt.  But the boy can play!

Mind you, the game was tough of my aging eyes ... bright orange & yellow everywhere.  Had to turn the brightness down on the telly

I hope we are at Norwood next year.

Collingwood look off tonight and are missing their ruckman, De Goey and McStay might be out for the game.

The scary thing about St Kilda is that they’re not even close to full strength.

They epitomise what work rate and effort can do. Talent doesnt make as much difference as it used to. If they keep winning and get back their stars they’ll go deep. 
 

We forget that they used to be a reasonable team before they fell off the face of the earth with no apparent reason. 

no way the Saints will be able to keep this up over the season. it’s all pressure and manic play  

Ross is doing the right thing focusing on defence. but Saints don’t have the depth or talent to make the 8 this year. they’ll drop off like last year

After our debacle yesterday watching saints and filth play actually gives me hope. What an appalling game. At least the saints have some injuries as an excuse.

They said that about us in 2021. They are fit and they are hungry. Structurally they are excellent.

They'll make the eight easily.

do they have a Trac, Clarry, Gawn, May, etc? i reckon they are getting through on energy and pressure. us in 2021 were pokes apart imo

they were 8-3 last year and missed finals

well done Hoges

Yes he effectively killed the clock with that last pack mark at high half-forward (Hawks side of the ground)

I got the distinct impression that he didn't want the finger pointed at himself for missing those 2 easy shots

Willed himself at the contest and iced the game.  It certainly was well done

Could this be a Grand Final preview?

No thank you.

I hope we play the GF and I'd prefer we take care of business in the PF and smash the Pies.

I knew this question would tick people off!

Ugh what a horrible weekend. We lose, meaning Essendon won, Collingwood won & they occupy two spots in the top 4 those 2 clubs

  • 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.
