    Trying to make the connection between this thread and our last game. 
    Has Buddy come out of retirement already?

    You'd hate to be a pies defender. Mids do not win a contest, and they don't run defensively so you're always out of position with no support.

    Good play by George at Bunnings warehouse during the ad break then.

    Impact player.

    I never understand why some commentators refer to certain players by both names (Christian/surname), as if they have a hyphenated name. e.g. Isaac Smith ... there is only one Smith on the ground. Bobby Hill's another. Taylor Adams. And Hoskin Elliott ... oops, that is a hyphenated surname!! 

    It's usually players with surname-like Christian names, especially the Bulldogs' Baileys (x3) - Smith/Williams/Dale. A few others ... Touk Miller, Conor Nash, Zac Bailey (what is it about Bailey?), Dyson Heppell.

    I think I have too much time on my hands.

    Reckon Ollie Henry plays as a forward a lot like Tom Hawkins (albeit 20/30kg lighter) - might be the succession plan

    Surely after his last couple to forget against us he isn’t thinking about getting another bath from S. May as a farewell?

    The pies are in serious trouble. At this point you wonder if they'll win another game this season.

    Nah. That’s not accurate at all. 

    We face the same threat as other teams jostling for a final 8 position…

    and that is a show of brutality in a psychological edge as we enter September. 
     

    Moore, case-in-point.

    I'm torn.

    Cats to lose to increase likelihood of missing out on finals.

    Pies to lose to have 3 losses in a row and destroy all momentum going into finals.

    Also can't stand either team.

    Moore hamstring is huge. If bad enough, first game back could be first final. Risky.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
