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.

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.

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

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.

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
