Reminder to everyone that it's a scratch match.

We lost comprehensively to the Bulldogs in the 2021 preseason game.

Geelong lost to Gold Coast in 2022.

Collingwood barely scraped past Hawthorn in 2023.

    Yes true, but what a great time to trial plans to stop a run-on or get some composure. That is the concern - we just look lost.

    Lucky we’re not playing Carlton…

    Oops that’s next week…

    Still got Oliver, Jefferson, Adams, Hore, Tholstrup, Verall and Seston to come later in the day.

    Learning the cost of turnovers when we try and play more quickly and take the game on

    leaves the defense open (which it hasn’t been for 3 years)

    good to learn the risk/return and who we don’t want to have the exit disposal now.

    it’s not even a real pre season game

    can we relax??

    Yep the posters that are going on about there's no pressure on the turnover, do they really think that's the way we're going to play in the season with no pressure

    nah

    train the way you want to play

    also are now in front on the only scoreboard that matters:

    1 injury to the tigs, 0 to the dees

    Wowsers… it’s a scratch match. Richmond giving away their game plan, we are not. Relax.

    As Iverson said, it's practice you're talking about practice

    methinks you've completely misinterpreted what ai was saying - practice hard, play hard

    Wait until next week, do you really want players to put there body's on the line for a scratch match, and get injured 

    Anotehr poor turnover, another tigers goal.

    A bit of a pattern. I suppose you could blame it on our attempt to play fast football. Fastball is not our traditional strength

    I am pleased the Kayo feed here is not working !!

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
