Didn't know where to put this, here is as good as any.....as good as last night was and yes we are on top of the ladder, a little reality check may be required.

We have played one team in the current top 8.

That’s true, but the Dogs and Sydney are better than their current ladder position - or in Sydney’s case, were at the time we played them. 

But yes, Collingwood, Port Adelaide, Adelaide and Geelong will all be tougher tests than most of our last month of footy.

Flat track bullies.

Cant understand why the umpires celebrate those numpties  except The Bont. Top 5 player in Afl.

Easily top 5, maybe even top 3

I'll tune in tomorrow to see what Kane Cornes and Matthew Lloyd say. They generally have 15 players each in his top 3-5 in the comp.

This could be the perfect day with Richmond, Essendon & Collingwood losing 

What’s that I hear? Someone prematurely writing off Collingwood?

Come back to me at the end of the game.

Cheer up, two more teams are outside the 8 because we played them. :laugh:

They will be tough but I reckon we are finding a groove and expect us to be competitive at the very least. I thought the attitude last night was exemplary of how we need to play against those sides.

There was a 10 minute patch where the umpiring was killing the Pies v Crows match. But it has turned into a craacker of a game now.

Adelaide are good but if you keep missing easy opportunities in front of goal Collingwood will make you pay. 

Pies are an excellent contest team with Sidebum, de Goey, Crisp, Mitchell, etc.

Suns winning is a great result for us death riders. Confident that Richmond are a better team than Freo and we really want Freo to finish below the Suns. 👏

Also takes the pressure off the Suns coming into next week against us.

ABC commentators lamenting draw with Tigers, Pies, Druggies not going so well after 5 day break. 
 

We got North. 
Maybe we should play Essendon and Pies v Tigers either side of Anzac Day short breaks.

Flip side of that is it gives them a bit of confidence before our game.
Also no way we take them lightly now considering Richmond gave us a good game last week.

Tigers had six day break.

What the squelch just happened at half time of Pies-Crows?

Noble obviously slipped down to deliberately draw a high contact, but Dawson then clearly caught him 'actually' high, Rankine decides he needs to prove to the world he's a git by running over to shove Noble while he's lying flat, and then Maynard comes in and has some kind of epileptic fit while holding Rankine's collar.

Bizarro juvenile times all round.

You can add Richmond to the list of teams not winning the week after playing us.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
