Saints have done well to snag a goal just before half time. I so wish we could have done the same.

    Good response from the saints. It was looking like it was going to be a rout so fair play to them for getting back into this game

    Nearly messed it up with another silly advantage call.

    Umpires getting involved, haven't seen all the replays to confirm those Free Kicks were legit.

    Usually they say on AFL site subbed out with injury if concussed. 

    Doesn't say anything. But he was clearly unbalanced and his feet were buckling as he went off.

    Would have to be concussed you would think, but it's Carlton.

    He looked genuinely out of it when the team was singing the song in the rooms too.

    We definitely need a couple of elite kicks in our list, they can make the difference by getting goals from almost impossible angles and distances.

    Giants make our skill level look very ordinary.

    Hogan and Bedford would be handy right about now for us.

    How didn't the footy department see that Bedford was the more superior small forward than Chandler?

    We did not want him to go. He asked to be traded. Was out of our hands.

    GWS are quick, they’d expose us badly on the outside. I reckon they’d smash us. 

    We wont meet them unless they get to the Grand final.

    Because there wasn't many opportunities presented to him last year.

    We offered him a three year contract.

    Popped into the footy. It's nice just being a neutral observer. 

    Also the difference to our game. Both forward lines have open space

    And Toby just nutts another one.

    Bedford ugh.  Still can't believe we let him go and went with Laurie. 

    No offence to to the young fella but they are chalk and cheese in terms of speed & finish.

    Even slightly ahead of Chandler imv and will probably jump ahead in coming years.

    GWS will be a difficult opponent for port or lions. And they don’t seem to mind playing at away grounds. Tough on the inside, great spread, solid defensively and some real method going inside f50. They’re a well coached team and can’t be taken for granted

    Every thread ends up as Team X would beat us. Without fail.

    What is it with all the Bedford revisionism in this thread. He did not show this kind of form when playing for us. And he had chances to do so.

    Love your work WCW but I'm sorry to inform you the quality of the crepe paper used in each team's banner does not portent the future.

    Love your work too, Chook. Firstly, the Swans - like most other clubs - use plastic and not crepe paper; secondly, the problem wasn’t the construction of the backing, it was that the sleeve (the cylindrical vinyl attachment through which the pole is inserted) had split in two; thirdly, and most importantly, I wasn’t being serious anyways. 😁

    can’t remember many people complaining when we let him go

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
