Tigers dominating the centre clearances.

And smashing them in contested possessions also.

Sydney should be very pleased with their start to season 2024. They've managed to beat this year's premiers and last year's premiers in successive weeks.

Maynard is clearly getting booed at the unfurling of their premiership flag, against an interstate club. The AFL can pretend all they like, but I can guarantee they are hearing. The general publi

The Tiges need to play body-to-body more, and to nominate an backline interceptor like Lever. McKay and Curnow are being given a run and jump at too many balls. 

Blues getting murdered at ground level. Taranto, Green and Dusty tearing them to pieces.

Not to make the non-MFC thread about us, but the speed teams are playing at this season is worrying.

I don't think we've got the capacity to adapt to this with our list and gameplan. Might be a long one this year.

Haven't capitalized on it though.

Thought the Tiges held em off very well considering the time in possession & number of entries i50

Curnow is just so enjoyable to watch. Will be an all time great. A true KPF.

Blues as good as they are offensively as they never win a flag without another KPD. 

He actually could be so much better. He's got very little craft or tact - he's all athleticism, footy IQ and skill. Obviously still enough to be just about the best forward in the comp but if you watch closely there's a lot he doesn't quite do that well

Blues run forward of the ball way too much, Tigers get them on the counter when being a tad more defensive would help the Baggers (Not Goody level defensive).

Tigers hanging in when they shouldn’t be, Carlton too busy thinking they are world beaters.

At that size, to move the way he does, is just freakish. His marks stick and has great kicking technique. Takes the very best to take him out of the game.

The half time reporter from Adelaide just said that Harrison Petty is almost certain to be wearing Crows jumper next season.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
