Recommended Posts

Reluctantly, but I’ll have a crack.

Can hold their heads up:

6.  Hanks

5.  Goldrick

4.  Hore

For effort only, on a day when most of our players wandered around like lost sheep:

3.  Purcell

2.  Heath

1.  McNamara

That's what I can muster in a team that played like they'd never met each other before. On WCW's intel, I'm hoping that was the result of some kind of fever dream...

Is there something we don't know?

I’m sure it’ll become public knowledge soon enough.

Are you able to elaborate on this WCW?

Yes, I actually can now. Covid swept through the team. It began the weekend of our last H&A vs Brisbane. It hit more than half the side, to varying degrees. Some players were badly impacted to the point of not being able to train during the week between the Brisbane and North games. Even Mick wasn’t spared.

At Sunday’s GF, the North cheer squad said they knew about it and felt for us (of course, that didn’t stop them from smacking us in the QF) and I’m sure Geelong knew as well.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
