I wouldn’t play him in the middle. Not a great contested ball player. 

Hope they persist with him in the middle for next week against Carlton, the Blues aren't known for contested ball footy 😁

WTF is rough conduct?

 Every contest Cox is in could be described as that. 

Thought he said ruck conduct 😂.

Cox does that often doesn’t he?

Is there a softer player in the league than Nick Daicos?

No defensive pressure from either side yet. Some great foot skills, great running handball chains, and clutch finishing, but so few stoppages, tackles or team defensive pressure. Refreshing in a way. Except that it is the Filth v Bummers.

Imagine the odds you could have received on Collingwood and Brisbane not making the finals.

$50 would possibly by you a yacht.

I would love for both of these sides to lose!

what would I prefer,   Mason to accidentally collect Stringer or Maynard, why can’t I have both.


McRae game plan

go down by 35 points

get the players fired up

get the crowd behind them

win by 2 points

Mihocek is their Fritsch.

An under rated player by most but usually good for a couple of goals. Ignore him at your peril

How is that a free kick? Both looking at the ball,  body impact at the same time as the ball. There was no interference.

They relied on that method in 2022 and it ended up biting them on the backside in the prelim vs Sydney.

Hipwood? Considering he’s probably 5+ inches taller and 10+ kg heavier?

Brayshaw: "Daicos walks through about five"

What I saw: Takes possession, wheels past one and disposes poorly.

Was wondering the same thing. Both eyes on the ball. Why is front on contact always paid to the “forward” running player?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

  • 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.
