Don't think the port/ess game is of a high standard at all. Quite poor footy. If port can kick straight at goal they will win. Watch the bombers tire in the last.

Will be happy to see Carlton and Essendon get beaten. The sooner they and their manky fan bases know they are out of finals contention the better for everyone else.

The misuse of this word, especially when describing footy players, is so irritating. I’m assuming they mean “lackadaisical”?

Save time and completely dislike them now.

Looking forward to Swans v Pies. I feel an upset at the G. 

DISCLAIMER....I Thought we'd win by ten goals last night so.....gamble responsibly.

Dermott literally just said ‘it’s a man’s sport, and that’s the way in needs to be played’.

Except for when it’s played by women Derm. Did he mean tough, uncompromising, or brave? There’s lots of other words. Use them, or go.

Dermott also said, while praising Weids, “All he needed was a bit more time, Melbourne should’ve been patient.”

As ironic as Dermies comment is, I'd actually take him back at the minute for our fwd line issues but only short term.

Cripps is a great inside contested player but unfortunately the modern game just doesn’t suit his style as much as it used to.

I have never come across a commentator that just likes to get it out there as to how great he is (was) and how he is just such an effusive expert on all things football. He really does irk me big time.

Don’t forget: Every time you hear Dermie do an intake of breath (meaning he’s about to say something) you must immediately assume an air of solemn respect, similar to how the masses would’ve been just before Confucius spoke.

The only way to beat both Melbourne and Collingwood is to just bury them from the first bounce. Close contests and they're just too good with too much polish. 

Surely if both teams are 1st and 2nd come King's Birthday we get 90k+?

Hope so. Could be the game of the season. KB still sounds strange.

I think it says more around our game style and overall skill level. 
 

Weid is good 1:1 with space. He is not good in contested marking. If you recognise that and play to his strengths then he’ll generally perform better than he did for us. He just couldn’t do what we were asking if him.

I’ll spew if I’ve watched this game ‘til the end only to see Essendon win.

HANG IN THERE, PORT!

edit: no need to spew 🥳

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
