I might reply if I could actually understand what you are saying here.

Fair enough i read it and it was a bit jumbled. The point being is i find it quite difficult to cope with the Media week in and week out so i hope they don't think we are going to cop it.

Ditto.... mumbo jumbo

You can see the disdain that players have for the indecision making process that goes on week in and week out. 

How decisions that are completely incongruous to the whole game except for the last minute pop up and a team loses.

How players do not get penalised for being in the protected zone in one game this week yet last week were, by the same umpire, in a different game at a crucial stage.

How players get regularly warned going over a mark, from some clubs and when others from other clubs do it they are penalised. How angles regularly get changed  to play on and not play on calls

    Tonight's Special Privilege for Collingwood.

     Coll Player puts hand up. Carlton on mark. Player kicks ball after extra seconds have elapsed. All we hear in our games is play on.

    HAPPENS EVERY WEEK

    Heard from confidant that we are all the AFL talk about every Monday or Tuesday. Stop laughing at the AFL, boys.

    Which umpires to do our game and which umpires not to...

    How to catch us unprepared, different rule to be regurgitated and enforced. How cocky we are. How our senior/leaders players talk back to the Media all the time, to the point of no communication for fear of retribution back on the field.

    Bollocks

    If I need to use three words consistent with the thread: Bollocks, bollocks, bollocks

    This thread is a joke.  I didnt see the game but how can virtually every player get a negative write up when one lousy kick would of won the game for us and we'd be sitting pretty heading towards Sept.  Huge ask for MFC to win on the road for the fifth time against the 2nd most in form side over in Adelaide.

    Please stop wearing those ridiculous theme tops. All the teams look awful in them. NRL is laughing at us.

    The AFL has lost its mind over the past 13 years or so. I reckon the rot started with the Meatloaf GF  debacle.

    Harsh 3WPA this week.

    Based more on the outcome of the game, rather that the overall actions of the players. 

    Are we sure joeboy hasn't been hacked by Michael Christensen?

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
