Boderline acceptable eg "hey you guys" to avoid that horrible 'yews'!!🙂

Too American!🙄

Need to convince me of that one🤔

Yuk, yuk, yuk!!

OK.

 

Guys and gals will do just fine.

I recently did a project with young Trans and Non-Binary folks and they were actively trying to get ‘youse’ used as an inclusive, uniquely Australian term.

I just kept thinking of Jeff Fenech (but didn’t bring it up because nobody else in the room knew he was).

Language changes, constantly. I don’t think trying to keep up with it is as important as using it with grace and good will.

 

This is going to be an absolute smacking coming up here for the Dockers imo. The signs are there.

Running towards that top 5 draft pick 

 

Sydney seems to have forgotten what made them so good towards the end of last year. Midfield is not attacking in a wave like they did.

Brisbane are just a completely different team at home than they are away. Downhill skiers that lot.

Their injury list is absolutely [censored] 

They are pretty much cooked for the season

May as well get the early flight home. 
 

We could use some of the Lions ruthlessness when they’re playing good

I like the idea but hope we come up with a better term than 'youse' or another spelling otherwise it will be mispronounce and rhyme with 'mouse'!!😐 

I'm a bit of a traditionalist when it comes to the English language (and for a few other things).  But happy to embrace the new ideas.

How did they go against us in the finals last year?

Please, we were running on fumes by then. Not to mention we were popping pills on the bench like there was no tomorrow. We might’ve been at 60% freshness during that game. We threw all our chips into the Swans QF which was a brutally physical match for us.

We even managed to be up by 30 odd points at half time too. Not bad for a team running on empty

There you go brightening the mood again.


I'd have to be the worst super coach ever. Fancy having Jackson as 2nd ruck. 25 fantasy points nearing 3/4 time. He needs to put a performance in the last like the 3rd qtr in the GF to even get above 50 points. He is struggling big time at the Dockers.

He seems devoid of confidence, and doesn’t seem to know where he needs to be to get himself going.

Is it just going to take him time or is there something very wrong at Freo. There's the answer, Jacko kicks a goal and no one gets around him.

Jackson brings it to within 5 goals. Brisbane have been very disappointing after pretty much locking the game away in the first quarter and a bit.


Bears sleepwalking their way through this one.

Please don't make excuses we had a dysfunctional forward line all year, they even tried to change it towards the end of the year, blind Freddy could see that, well not you it seems.

  • 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.
