Someone getting their money's worth out of their MCC membership it seems.

That guy is my hero. I love it was caught on TV. I stood and applauded with him.

    Early days but loving the fact they have traded out their first round pick to freo and won't get a consolation prize if their season goes completely belly up.

    Pies got crucified by the umps.
    Free kicks were Saints 30 Pies 15.

    Higgins goal from the 3rd row was a nail into the pies hearts.
     Umps were shocking.  

    Pies were massacred by the umps.

    It was beautiful to watch

    🤣🤣😊😊🤣🤣😊😊

     

    I'm not the guy in the pic but I was also at game in my Melbourne gear, cheering the Saints on.

    Collingwood fans are hilarious and I'm convinced half have no idea what they are watching.

    Also particularly enjoyed when they went the early crow not once but twice with their stupid chant, only for half on them to be on their way out the door a few Saints goals later.

    Re Higgins' goal... looks in to me!  😎

    He was presenting an analogy (I think). 🤷‍♀️  It made no sense at all. I’m sure even he would be puzzled if he watched his presser back.

    As they fall, any pickings from the carcass? Apart from the Daicos brothers who will have to wither on the vine, who would you take, I used to like McStay, but feeling ho hum about him, Moore would never leave, Hill I rate, Quaynor also, but that is about it, everyone else is looking like a dollar special due to age. 

    Yep not much bait there. Maybe Murphy if healthy?

    Considering the last 3 flag winners, we've still been the most consistent one.

    I thought about this but he doesn’t replace May, and I like our guys more. There will be an article about how well we have replaced defenders in last 5 years, Hunt, OMac, Frost, Hibbered, Lovett, Tomlinson when he did his knee, have been replaced by Petty, Bowey, McVee, Rivers, Gus for a period, (Howe, Hore off a very small sample size), and it hasn’t missed a beat. You play in the Men’s department for Melbourne, you are a very serious player, anywhere…Me thinks we could do with more praise for Troy on this fora.

    Pies will miss finals.

    They remind me of Leicester a few years ago when they won the EPL (2016 i think it was). For a season and a half they couldn't lose even though everyone expected the wheels to come off at any moment. The season after their miraculous win they crashed and burned finishing 12th.

    A crows win over the cats tonight would set the weekend up perfectly.

    Nup you definitely want Brisbane to win next week.  The pies can have their easter ruined & go 0-4.

    How far St Kilda this year?

    Prelim final?

    You would be a fool to underestimate them. Some great talent coming through and well coached.

    Agreed. They’re definitely underrated and are well in the top 8 mix this year.

    This just in from AFL Headquarters:

    If Collingwood lose to Brisbane next week and to a Jack Ginnivan-led Hawthorn the week after in Gather Round, they will be granted exclusive draft access to Nathan Fyfe's twin boys as compensation.

    If that happens, expect to hear a lot about Collingwood, Owen Fyfe and Norton Fyfe.

    Carlton lost six (seven?) in a row early last season. Everyone wrote them off, said they wouldn’t make finals. Nek minnit…

    Collingwood are so far off it that I’m not sure beating them right now is necessarily a sign that St Kilda are any good.

    Every year st kilda are talked up. they never deliver. they've got some good players in King and Marshall and they are well drilled by Lyon but they are a 6-8 team at best.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
