At least we are not on our own May be an image of crowd and text that says 'NEVER TEAR US APART OUT IN STRAIGHT SETS US OUTIN STRAIGHT SETS OUT IN STRAIGHT SETS OUT IN S OUT IN STRAIGHT SETS OUTIN STRAIGH pdod 109d'

While we are on this topic, is there nothing more cringe watching Port do this every home game to then go out and dish up this type of performance for the night?

    GWS play with no fear. (Unlike us: we seemed mentally fatigued). Maynard certainly would not attempt to poleaxe Toby Greene, he would get his face caved in. Would be excellent to see Collingwood get knocked over after their recent AFL-approved performances.

    If I had told you ten weeks ago both Carlton and GWS would get to the Preliminary finals I'd be still reading the responses.

    I'm proud to say I picked the GWS renaissance before we played them in Round 15 or whenever it was.

    However at quarter time of Carlton v GC at the MCG in June, I thought Carlton were more likely to finish bottom 4 and sack Voss than get anywhere near this far.

    Toby Greene the player most likely to punch/kick/bite Maynard in the throat, so that's a good match-up for next week.

    I could live with a Brisbane/GWS grand final.

    Whatever is further from a Carlton/Collingwood match up. Jusy mopping up the media [censored] would cost the Victorian government more than the Commonwealth Games.

    Edit: I'm surprised that was censored, but concede it was grotty. I leave it to everyone's imagination.

    I am a bit different. Brisbane for me. However to see the filth get bowled over by the giants next week would be lovely.

    Right there on board the big, big train now.

    Would pick up the phone to see if Jesse wants to come home. OOC next year.

    Absa-bloody-lutely!

    Despite being labelled as such they are a proper club not a soulless franchise.

    Credit to Kingsley he has Whitfield, Kelly, Coniglio, Ward and Green playing great football. Last year the first three looked like they were going through the motions.

    They have the weapons to worry Collingwood. Fingers crossed.

    Plus they have a cool theme song!

    It's what I am praying for. However, being that I'm an athiest, I'm not confident.  🙄

    Port really did overperform finishing third. Apart from four decent mids (Butters, Rozee, Horny Francis and Drew) plus Houston  and a decent small forward in Rioli what else do they have?

    Orange juice with the pulp (Bedford & Hulk) vs the no pulp alternatives in the filth, Blues or Lions??

    Hard call.  Let me come back to you after a serious mull over....

    Ok done... it's a GIANT yes from me!!

    These concocted pre-game chants, mantras, rock songs and themes (possessed!) do my head in.

    Enter the sandman i think is used by about 80% of clubs as their teams run out.....booooring!  Anything but pls. 

    Maybe Hells Bells or just play a different song that each player gets to choose beforehand?  The theme song on its own.

    Can we just be the Mighty Demons with the caricature up on the screen and the mascots running around taking each other out!!??

    With a fair chunk of foot speed and agility that we don't have much of at the mo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
