    Yeah, call me childish but I quite like the start of this one also.

    Why does this thread always turn into  MFC player and coach bashing? 

    Some avoid the postgame threads after a loss and come on here to talk about other games specifically. 

    You watching this Goody?
     

    That’s how you move the ball Goody. 

    Why didn’t we recruit this tall bloke?
    Does my [censored] head in.

    Just got home from being away for the long weekend

    Reading this thread, thinking it might be safe from the des copping grief form their own fans. Alas, not to be.

    DZ's post above was written during the Giants v Pies game, one the Giants went on to smash the Pies (easily could have been more).

    I'll keep reading.

    I wonder if I'll see multiple posts writing the Pies' flag chances off. Because you know, poor loss first round and it curtains and all that.

    Even if it is against a finalist from last year on their home deck in tricky conditions. Reasons = excuses.

    Some equal opportunity hyperbole. 

    Or maybe there might some balanced comments about where the Pies are at?

    Pies looked good enough to suggest they will be thereabouts again - like us their F50 personnel is probably their main weakness

    They will miss McStay as much as we miss Petty. Johnson was disappointing, Cox was just that, Mihocek is slightly better than JVR arguably, Hill is their Pickett and Schultz is very overrated imo, Elliott always asked to play taller than he is, McCreery is ok but no star

    And a football action.

    Surprised Cox didn't jump onto Mummy with a shoulder to the head, given Coll get the green light and all

    Pies defence was terrible. I think some of it can be attributed to being one short there every time Little Nicky goes for a wander upfield. Every turnover and it's extra numbers ahead of the ball for the oppo.

    • 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.
