Great goal Windsor. I thought they changed the ruling on balls that hit the umpire, where if the ball was going to go through for a goal it would be a goal, but otherwise no change in the rules (the ball hitting the umpire is an act of god - play on).

I know he’s had little offseason but geez petty looks ordinary. Can’t mark, can’t kick, v slow. If we’re gonna sell him next year we’re going to need him to find his feet very soon. 

In disco we trust

Petty. Oh no no no no 

backline only 

I've never seen someone this out of form given so many games.

It's actually pretty cruel from the Coach to keep playing him in this state.

Needs a spell at Casey to find his mojo under alot less pressure and VFL level opponents.

May and Lever have been best on for mine, not playing on much of a forward line but kept us in it in the first half. Disco kicking 3 has been the difference. Langdon solid and Windsor came into it in the 3rd. Koz makes a massive difference to the forward line.

Petty can’t move, I think they’re hoping to run him into form but I think he needs to go behind the ball until he gets fitness and touch back. Billings needs the mids to be feeding him or he’s useless and he’s pretty hungry at the moment.

He is so clearly and unequivocally out of form on all metrics, it’s not even funny.

At the huge risk of getting ahead of myself and not wanting to jinx the team🤞to go on and have a big win would be excellent.  As  I'm sure all are aware the lower the opposition score the better the percentage. The % difference come the end of the season could be critical. Having said that I'll take any win atm!!

Several folk here need to book an appointment at SpecSavers. 

Jack Billings is one of the reasons we’re back in it.

Keep self-flagellating…

He needs a mini-preseason, like Ben Brown did in 2021. He needs to not play AFL or VFL for about 6-8 weeks and just get super-fit. Come back in late in the year and play full-forward from there on in.

Worked once, why not try it again.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
