It’s too late for Meth Coke and North now. Probably Hawthorn as well, the Map of Tassie will be cleaning up on young talent. 
there will be a few Clubs very concerned about the future 

when you really don't want to be poor in 2027-2031

they - and the eventual 20th team - will pick the eyes out of the draft

    Yes i am a little concerned for us, but if we can nail top talent in the next 2 years we may be able to get through the 2 new teams

    Zero sympathy for the eagles. An arrogant footy club. An extended period at the bottom might them and their supporters some humility

    Tiges have had a crack but I expect the swans to pull away in the second half.

    if you look at their history, this is what they do - compete and be there or thereabouts, win a premiership, hang around competing, bottom out... rinse / repeat

    they've only been out of finals for three seasons, and presumably 2024 will be their fourth missing out in a row

    they’ve never bottomed out like this  it’ll take many years to compete after this

    how many wooden spoons i wonder

    Good to see Richmond taking the game on and have a go.

    As for West Coke im convinced they are worse than us during the Neeld years, which is saying something.

    Richmond exposing a massive weakness in the Swans. I hope their young players can keep it up for 4 quarters. Pressure the kicker (Heeney, Gulden, Papley etc... ) at the point of kicking and their elite kills disappear. And the Tiges forward spread is tearing he Swans apart.

    Watching the last quarter of the NBL final between Jack jumpers and united. Game 5 decider. It’s down to the wire.

    getting the Eagles back into contention is way more important to the AFL than supporting Tasmania

    Not sure that will be the case. The AFL won’t want a weak Tassie Side in the Comp if they have just had a new Stadium built. 
    I think West Coast are in a tail spin that will take years to recover from. 
    Hawthorn and North are close behind

    Is what Grundy is doing at centre bounces legal?  He runs across the line as soon as the ump goes into his bounce routine and before the ump hits the ball on the ground.   ???

    I’d love to try and get Tim Kelly to the club somehow.

    Surely he’s sick of losing, even if he is at home.

    Don’t worry about Kelly who is a WA boy. Go hard for Reid 😂

    I read this week on AFL.com (I think) that Max was crook with the flu going into the Sydney game. The club didn’t want it reported on.

    Brodie is mid tier these days, and his lack of marking is a liability.

    Tiges looking like a really good bottom six side this year.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road for their 3rd interstate game in 4 weeks as they face a fit and firing Crows at Adelaide Oval. With finals now out of our grasps what are you hoping from the Dees today?

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
