Where does “crom” come from? 

they mis-printed merch with it instead of 'crows' and then they embraced this and it became... the norm

    This is amateur hour. The sport is literally funded by television. How can the TV viewers not be given the same footage? I call BS.

    Enough. The Crows v Freo game is almost unwatchable. All the run and grunt between two half back lines, with atrocius forward play and atrocious kicking. My adult kids home for easter are watching the Physical 100 - a Korean reality show based on physical challenges. Not my normal go-to, but the footy today has been so deplorable, I am giving it a go. 

    Is it possible for a great game of footy with pressure, good skills, and attacking flair?

    I know where you're coming from.  At half time I was going to the shed to find some paint I could watch dry. 

    Now I'm thinking this could be ok if I turn the sound off and play the Benny Hill theme on loop.

    It's like half of these blokes are wearing clown shoes

    Clear push.... 4 umps but no one makes the call.

    If that was a backman the whistle would be at the ready and they'd ping him straight away

    This is a game of robots and shows what is wrong with the game, forwards all play from behind or just stand still, playing on for the sake of it, players running back in trouble after getting the pill, players just run to flood back and not picking any one up along the way, unnecessary handballs to no one or overuse of it, players kicking to two or three on one, just one boring game.

    I've seen faster approaches on a lawn bowls green.

    Young has created about 30% of their play off HB / and middle yet no one appears to have gone to him all night.

    Terrible coaching

    The crows don't look like a Burgess driven team that's done a serious pre-season for mine.

    What happened?

    Win, lose or draw tommorow night, the dees will start favourites against the crows.

    Woeful, with some injury concerns.

    Crows been very poor particularly second half. The blowtorch is coming their way for sure.

    I genuinely hate AFL. I barely watch games that don’t involve Melbourne anymore and for the first time in my Melbourne supporting life, I’m skipping away games where I know the opposition crowd will make the experience unbearable (eg- Kings birthday). It’s no longer worth it for me.

    Umpires, score reviews, MRO, the fixture, academy picks…there is not one element of the league right now that I don’t think is a sick joke.

    I am as die hard and footy mad as anyone I know, but my love of the game has diminished so much in the last few years, and something was permanently broken after the Maynard debacle.

    It’s a good thing I am so proud of our club and where it stands, because otherwise I don’t think I’d be interested in the game at all anymore.

    I hate playing teams under pressure to win. I would have preferred they win. I also hate Freo.

    Freo play three of their first four games at home.

    AFL desperately trying to get one of their W.A. teams off to a good start and there was only one option worth the shonkey fix

    • 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.

      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.
