Hardly seems fair that Harley Reid should be punished.

Just saying on Fox that the Hawks are going to lose their first draft pick over the investigation into Clarkson. Something about bringing the game into disrepute . I take it I heard that right, was not really paying attention.

West Coast are putrid. Melbourne 2012-2014 level putrid.

West Coast must really rate Harley Reid!!

Can't imagine this being the case but would certainly add another layer to the freo death ride.

damian barrett at afl pravda has been saying the same for a while, so presumably that's the word coming down from on high, and they're preparing and 'conditioning' the public to expect it

the filth are the most in-form team in the competition and are - disgustingly - fantastic to watch

BUT

since they last made a grand final in 2018 it is melbourne with 3 finals win and a premiership to the filth 2 finals wins and no grand final

as we saw in 2022, great form in the home and away will count for nothing without making it count in september

You have to find an extra 20% we all know we have that but do the Pies.

My early tip is that the paper baggers are going to get the [censored] kicked out of them!

As much as I hate The Pies I'm really enjoying watching Carlton fail.

Don't mine the Pies Indigenous Jumper. hate the Blues one. 

As a working full time visual artist, with a background in design, most of the indigenous jumpers suffer from way too much going on, and a distinct lack of clarity and purpose.

Just for context - Freo’s jumper was designed in conjunction with Alex Pearce, who is from Tassie. So Fremantle’s jumper literally had a map of Tassie on it. 

I really hope some of the clubs start going for one symbol. There’s heaps of cool First Nations visual language (hello Devil Snake). Be great to see it applied more confidently and with more clarity, and not just filling every literal centimetre of the jumper.

Jesus Christ West Coast are an embarrassment 

Hunt must be wondering what black cat he killed in his past life to go from Melbourne to this rubbish.

Agree, some are just to busy which is why I love the Saints one this year.

If West Coast get pick are they better of trading it for 2 top 10 picks and drafting home grown talent again.

Believe we are looking to trade with them.

Dees had a loss, and now Collingwood are on the TV.

I’m predicting a lot of ‘Collingwood will kill us’ posts coming up. 

I reckon there is a good chance they can go undefeated all the way until end of Sept. nobody can seem to match it with them.

Well Carlton are horrible.

And Pies are very good. 

I suggest we all depart Victoria in September.

Considering Carlton probably needed an 8 goal lead at three quarter time to be a chance today it's not looking good so far.

Looks like Harley Reid will be spending a season at West Coast before choosing where he wants to play

Just hand Collingwood the flag now. Going to be another grand final massacre for the third year in a row.

The only club that could remotely challenge them on GF day is Brisbane or possibly Geelong if they come home like a freight train.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. 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.

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
