The running game by both teams (Pies more so) is something to admire. 

And the use of the corridor.

    Just saw an article on FB about the AFL considering players to be traded without their consent.

    There's a tread about it on the forum page.

    Not really footy related but when I saw her it reminded me.  Last week when Abbie Holmes was on my Dad asked what were the marks across her face. I had to explain it was make up 😂

    They were both salary dumps. Pies had no choice.

    Just wait for the dump of all dumps if Jacko bombs out.

    I reckon Jake Stringer was that kid in the school playground who absolutely hogged the ball and didn’t understand why everybody else thought that was a problem.

    Bombers covering the corridor and pushing em wide

    Did the same to us. Regardless of game plan deployed, pressure will unravel all.

    Pies are missing their Moore-Murphy-Frampton defensive trio that was working for them in the first 3 rounds.

    Their defensive structures are falling apart and their lack of rucks are hurting.

    Who’s worse, Stringer or De Goey?

    Makes last week look not too bad…. Bombers have worked out the pies - pressure pressure pressure, no corridor opportunities.  Have to be able to go HARD FOR 4 QTRS to beat either of these teams.

    Well technically one is a criminal and the other is just a bad person. So De Geoy. But both take the number one spot for my most hated players in the AFL.

    Essendon very lucky the Pies miss every set shot and half opportunity at goal. Let's hope that doesn't change for KB day.

    But they won't win a final this year... 20 years and counting 😉

    • 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.
