Australia looks very lethargic. France's ball handling far better in the early game so far. They'll will win this easily I'm afraid...

Cheering against Aussie teams because of the media , ok then. 

I find it more enjoyable to cheer for my country than against it

You’re no great loss to the nation that’s for sure.

What have the frogs ever given us except grief about our submarine fleet and a whole lot of funny sounding words into our vernacular. Go Australia.

Essendon ahead of Geelong on the ladder despite being belted twice by them.

Sometimes the ladder lies.

Essendon beat us convincingly. Yes, yet ladder tells the truth in this case.

As the great David King once said, it’s not who you play, it’s when you play them.

Essendon in gather round being a prime example.

Aussies doing all the attacking but it doesn't look to me like either side will be able to overcome the opposition defence. The best chance of the game was to the Aussies late in the first half but blocked by the French Jake Lever (damn you rick).

Worried about Australia right now. I think with Sam Kerr coming on France has a sneaky chance to slip in under the overly-attacking mindset brought on by the crowd and the sub.

How the -uck are none of these going in the net.

France is being super-professional right now. Very worried. Don't stuff this up by being too aggressive!!!

rubbish decisions to the Lions. Very pro hometown umpiring here.

Just the nature of sports entertainment. Some teams favoured.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
