Looks like this weekly thread hasn't been started yet.   There's some difficult games to tip.

But I really just wanted an excuse to post this picture of a young Harry Sheezel with one of his childhood heroes.

They'll be playing against each other this weekend!

    Bulldogs have a nice little deal going with their Ballarat games. Reportedly they get $1M from the State Government to play there.

    Could we have a game in say sunny Mildura.

    The irony is that the ground capacity in Ballarat is so small most Dog supporters don't bother with the trip

    Gees Geelong’s midfield looks really ordinary this weekend against the Dockers. Wouldn’t be surprised at all…

    Agreed. Duncan was their only decent mid last weekend and he is out

    Freo should win easy at home

    the Blues v Pies should be interesting 

    Carlton under the pump will come out hard

    aside from that not too much of interest

    the Giants are my tip for an upset against Saints. and Freo to beat Cats still counts as an upset

    Reckon North are a chance against Sydney. Swans have been well down recently.

    Very tough round to tip. You could make a reasonable case for how each team could win.

    And I'm jumping off the death ride this week. I want to see the Cats lose even if it does hurt our draft position.

    Crows are a real chance against the Dogs. A cold wet day on Mars favours their direct playing game as against the tall forward play of the Dogs

    they want that #1 pick (that they're going to trade to us)

    How good would it to end up with pick One and Two.

    i imagine we'll package our 2x 2023 1st rounders and 1x 2024 1st rounder for pick 1

    i want a premiership and pick 1 kplsthxbye

    The AFL would change the rules in advance.

    On the one hand, nothing pleases me more than a Geelong loss. On the other hand, MY PRECIOUS DRAFT PICKS💔

    Reckon nth can knock off Sydney & I give Freo a chance.

    Last week a Collingwood supporter on social media was going on about Mason Cox saying he was up for trade and how stupid do the other clubs look not being interested, I replied with no we took Brodie Grundy instead. Thanks for him by the way.

    Hope Richmond win tonight because Essendon have a couple of cruisy weeks.

    I see nth players have said they want to put a smile on Clarkson's face and they'll have extra motivation. I would have thought maybe doing that while he was coaching

    West Coast showing an absolute masterclass in tanking, planting a flu virus in their remaining fit players.

     

    Hopefully the AFL can see that it's injuries and sickness and no priority pick is needed.

    Looks like a full house in Ballarat. I didn't think the dogs fans would travel.

    Only has a capacity of 11k so it's usually a sell out

    It's the same travel time as Geelong from Melbourne so it's not a long travel. Not much further than Casey from the Melbourne CBD in travel time.

    Why Bulldogs are paid $1M to play there by the State Government... who knows

    They don't bring 11k to the MGC hence my surprise.

    i suppose the locals head along which bumps up the crowd.

    • 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.
