Why do we need 8 games spread over 5 days, with 4 night games?

Surely tonight's game could be played on Friday, and Friday's game on Saturday.

    I can only assume a larger slice of the broadcast pie (4 night games vs. 3). It's almost always about the money.

    Because the broadcaster can now have Thursday night games again. Were not allowed to play Thursday nights for seven rounds. As of the next AFLPA deal Thursday night will be every week.

    Swans -       Saints might be gone

    Dogs   -       Not sure if this is just a wish

    Lions   -       Hawks are getting better but!

    Crows  _      Someone is going to lose to the eagles at some point.

    Dockers  -   But cheering hard for the Tigers

    Giants  -      Forgotten is this their on week or their off week

    Draw -         Bloody hell do I really have to pick one. 

    Melbourne - Never been as confident as I am this week.

    Carlton v Essendon is sold out...amazing

    You just cannot argue against these sides. They pull the crowds in, no matter what.

    The death riding thread was good fun there for a while. Would love if freo fell back in a hole

    A Swans win tonight puts them firmly back in the running for the final 8.

    Dogs V Port is a big game for us. A Port win if combined with a Collingwood win on Monday sees those two teams 3 games clear and almost certain top 4. A loss by both leaves the race wide open.

    Freo v Richmond is interesting. Go Tigers

    Blues v Bombers (draw please)

    Why don't you come up to The Manor and watch it with Uncle WCW ?

    I could show you my etchings during the lunch break.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
