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!  😎

    Lol what?! Please tell me you’re joking!

    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we have replaced defenders in last 5 years, Hunt, OMac, Frost, Hibbered, Lovett, Tomlinson when he did his knee, have been replaced by Petty, Bowey, McVee, Rivers, Gus for a period, (Howe, Hore off a very small sample size), and it hasn’t missed a beat.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.

    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.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
