Not sure North are a rabble. 

Definitely not. They have some young A listers and a good coach.

I can't get a handle on Freo. In 2022 it looked like they were on the way to battling for a top 4 spot in 2023 but it's been all downhill

    North in the 70’s lost the first 6 games and then made the GF

    ’76 i think

    This piqued my interest and given the time I have on my hands, I looked it up on AFL Tables.

    In '76, they lost the first three games.  In '75, they lost the first four before going on to their first flag.

    They never lost the first six in the period 1974-78 when they made the GF every year.

    Luke Jackson, generational. What a loss for us 

    He’s a freak; but, sadly, we knew that.

    When he starts to run with the ball a bit and kick more he’ll tear matches apart.

    Another JT special.

    Apparently half the leagues recruiters didn’t have him as a top 5 pick back in 2019.

    May be top of the iceberg.
    Taylor called a beauty and wore a lot of criticism for it.

    Don't think we need to clap for Jackson this year.

    Fair chance ! The front on vision will [censored] him. He braced and turned into Cunningham in my view.

    No attempt to spoil or mark.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
