Chapman and Cox are defenders, Cox was in the AA squad in 2022.

They are both better than Pearce, as is Luke Ryan. At full strength they are a strong defence and one which I think most people don’t appreciate. 

Yep, forgot cox was a defender. And as you say a really good one too.

I'm obviously in the not appreciating how strong their defence is. I'll reassess.

    I see Peter daicos has had enough of seeing his boys lose as well as Collingwood.  He's gone off into the jungle

    West Coast are an absolute joke of a club. Long may it last! They won’t recover from this easily, we know better than most. Gaff, Yeo, Darling, McGovern etc will be gone soon and then what?

    Then Tassie get all the picks. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch

    It really would be great to see West Coast down the bottom for another decade.

    Gotta stop watching Gws games and lamenting the loss of Hogan and Bedford.

    Hogan gave us May and it worked out very well for us. 
    I’m genuinely happy for Hogan. It was never going to work out for him at Melbourne. Nothing worth lamenting.

    Cheers Jaded. Yea same here with Jesse. He had some rough things go on and he'd finally found some great form at Gws. He's a genuine good bloke of AFL. I still smile at his run up.

    This.

    I still love Jesse - don't feel any bad vibes about him. We did all we could - he end up at flogmantle were all (most) good footballers go to die. Good on GW$ - took a punt that's paying off handsomely. They must be doing something right up there. My man-crush on Jesse will lives on.

    Bombers putting up a decent fight tonight but Swans will run it out in the last. 

    Ben McKay is possibly the most overpaid footballer in AFL history. VFL standard yet on over 700k a year!

    Scully? Chris Dawes? Diamonds Tilbrook.

    Was one of my favourite players at MFC. And yea just because he's doing well at Gws doesn't necessarily mean he be crushing it if still with us. I hope he goes close to winning the Coleman. (Go Fritta).

    What do we all think about the Peter Wright incident? For me it's Maynard all over again, and should be 3-4 weeks. An attempted spoil or attempted mark is no longer either of those things when it ends up as a bump to the head.

    Here's the vision:

    Ordinarily I’d agree, but I feel so bad for Jayden. He’ll always be a Dee to me. And it’s not like he’s ever far from my mind: I have a giant cardboard cutout of him that I see every time I enter my house. 😭

    I agree with Sam Landsberger…

    Yes I like Jayden and feel sorry for him he’s ended up at West Coast. Not sure how long his contract is but hopefully he can keep his form up and request a trade out of the dump that is West Coast.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
