Unless it was in the first couple of minutes,   not a mention of Hardwick resigning, on the news after but clearly a recorded session.  Missed the biggest story of the week.

 

And don't they hate the Dees,   Port were obviously the deserved winners, no mention of the poor decisions after our 17 point lead.    They even showed the Tmac tackle round his head  but no mention that it was plain wrong, that they kicked their direction when it could have gone 50 metres our way.  It angered me at the time that decision and still does. Hope that umpire goes nowhere near us again.

 

Another easy 8 point game this weekend   Go Dees                            and Freo usually go well against us here at the MCG      MFCSS   slowly rising

    It’s the most irrelevant AFL shoe going around.

    Was that the Turkey that payed the mark in front of powers goal from a 9m kick?

    Probably the same ump from that Crows game when they didn't call a clear dob.

    That kick was barely 7 metres.

    Thanks for that,   must have been asleep,   getting far too old.  That was at least interesting. the rest of the show bland.

    But thanks for putting that up.    I dont get Ch 9    only get the regional programs and the times are rarely correct.  Thanks again

    Bah!

    Easily the worst of the post match footy shows.

    I only ever watch by accident if i've had it on 9 previously and even then it gets switched off within minutes.

    Caro and Eddie 🤮

    Footy Classified is clearly the worse of all the show on TV/FOX.  It is as close to unwatchable as a show can be. Only saw a few sec on Twitter this morning and all Caro could talk about was trying to get Dew fired from the Suns. And that was the segment on Hardwick.

    In many ways, particularly when u look at a series of truly terrible decisions we were unlucky to lose. which is irritating. But… looking at that game we shouldn’t have even been close. I can live with that loss. Dees falling will be the story …if that what we are doing… not bad umpiring. That’s what you get when you’ve been up for a while. I’ll pay that price. :-)

    Irritating. Yes it was irritating lucky I still have a tv

    the dog left home

    but yes since middle 2020 our win loss is the best I can remember. And you MUST enjoy this period of supporting the demons.  It might be over soon it might be over long time yet, but it will change. 
    so enjoy

    Absolutely. I will occasionally watch the Monday one as it can be somewhat watchable but the Wed one is truly embarrassing and cringe.

    I wonder if there were two versions? It's usually pre-recorded. The one that was shown on Nine's main channel in Melbourne addressed the Hardwick resignation and may well have been live (at least, the bit about Hardwick). I suspect an alternative version, recorded before the Hardwick resignation news broke, may have been broadcast in other markets.

    Hardwick going to GC is one thing but don't forget the manure could really hit the fan if Brisbane or Hawthorn blows up big time. There are quite a few people living in trepidation about AFL trying to ride over the top of interested groups here..

    That show is more entertainment, and probably the best of the lot in terms of it.

    Well the shoe fits for most of its audience I guess.

    It doesn’t even deserve proper grammar to describe how bad it is.

    Another horrible show is whatever amount of time is being given to Eddie McGuire on 3AW when Bartel is interviewing him.

    The less Eddie McGuire the better. He is a dinosaur like Tony Shaw, Robert Walls & Grant Thomas.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    • 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 05

      Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • 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.

    • 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?
