Why do you say that?

We were keen on him at draft obviously and have stayed in touch. Let’s wait and see what happens over the next few years at the Suns…

Sam Weideman is having a really good game tonight. Best I’ve seen him play I think. 
Good to see him doing well. 
 

(have just realised how handy he might be now, damn)

He’s had a few good games this year. It’s good to see him stepping up as a focal point. He’s been better than our tall forward this year for the most part!

    just showed the footage of the north interchange infringement. they had one planned last change. then Shiel hobbled off with cramp and some player ran on

    surely a sensible organisation would just say you have to pull the bloke back off. not wait a minute it’ll the ball is with 50 and hand the game to Sydney. 

    really embarrassing rule

    After his first 2 goals he kicked 3 points. Led/marked well though.

    A couple of those points weren’t from the easiest of set-shots. But yeah, he wasn’t clunking his marks this well with us.

    The problem seems to be when the penalty is called. It can be really badly manipulated, as we saw today.

    Today a free to North was then overturned to pay the interchange penalty. Is that in the rules, I would think not.

    Waiting until the ball is forward of centre guarantees a goal.

    serious question 

    does anyone else get annoyed that the camera zooms in on play and we lose the wide angle view?

    they do it more and more. take that great Cameron goal. zoomed in on him so you lose all perspective. 

    i think this might be my personal pet peeve but it would make me feel better if anyone even got what i’m taking about. god knows my wife couldn’t give a [censored]

    That handsome Sam Weideman fella from Bombers looks decent. 

    Can't kick to save his life.

    has there ever been a number 1 draft pick that has copped less criticism or interest than McGrath? 

    decent player but nothing special. Jack Watts must be scratching his head

    Dusty Martin is the best kick in the league by a fair margin.

    DubDee - I am with you 100% on this.  Last night there was so much zoom in that viewers had no idea about what was up the field and where anyone was aiming much of the time.  Appalling.

    Who’s the commentator that’s been sucking on the helium? 

    Is Terry Wallace back on air?

    Essendon winning on the siren makes me feel sick.

    That Richmond player that kicked it out of bounds on the full beforehand and failed to register a point was shocking

    I thought it was Wallace at 1st.
    I think it's Burgoyne.

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
