    I’m happy to admit I’m on the Giants train and will pleased if they snag this years flag. 
     

    Their game is so good to watch - wish it was red and blue guernseys. 

    With you 100%.

    Also, Hogan was "ill disciplined" but we're about to recruit McAdam and recruited Hunger lol

    I know we got good value for all of them but gee whiz, you can't ignore the common denominator of forwards wanting to leave.

    and Hogan smashed it at Freo didn’t he?

    the kid wasn’t right and wanted to leave. 

    zero blame on the club

    Port are lucky to only be 6 goals down.

    Yes, Giants are on a Demons scoring streak, keeping Port in the game, just about.

    There's a lot of criticism about Goodwin but I don't think anyone here is crazy enough to think he should be sacked.

    Hinkley definitely shouldn't have lasted as soon as he has.

    I’ve been iffy on Goodwin for a while. I think the club needs really clear hurdles for any extension beyond the current one. 
     

    I think we start with some fresh voices underneath him though and see what happens 

    Can’t afford to wait too long unless one is confident of finding the next Oliver and tracc

    GWS is one class above PA. In my view, I consider Pies, PA, and Syd to be on a similar level, while Melb, Carlton and Bris are better than them. GWS should beat the Pies comfortably next week, and the umpires won't be able to help the Pies much. I wouldn't be surprised if GWS won the Premiership.

    I know Goody maybe feeling it right now but this is a summary of Hinkleys finals record with Port:

    2014 - 10-1 and two games clear on top of the ladder after Round 12, didn't even make top 4.
    2020 - On top of the ladder literally every round of the home and away season, lost home prelim.
    2021 - Lost home prelim by 71 points against injury hit fifth placed team who went on to get smacked by 12 goals in the Grand Final.
    2023 - Three games clear in the top 2 with seven rounds to go. Won't even make a prelim.

    • 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.
