Now I'm more worried about Max's calf. On one hand I didn't want him to miss today,  but gee if he does anymore damage to it it could be costly 

his calf is fine....

This is the problem with having no real options beyond him. 
He never should have travelled to Perth last week and these are the games where if we had a decent backup he could sit out to avoid doing any serious damage. 
Calves can be problematic, especially at his age. If he does more damage to it today and has to miss a chunk of games, you could probably kiss our season goodbye.

Maybe in horse racing with multiple starters but there’s no way this is a correct stat for head-to-head competitions.

Anyway, I'm out before the inevitable gameday thread wrist-slashing and self-flaggelation begins ...

Real disappointed for Taj who has shown plenty and still is not getting a full game, while Hunter has had a less than great pre season and season thus far, and is straight in off very limited good form.

Goodwin will Goodwin, baffling stuff really. What's worse is that if anything at least Taj plays with effort, pride and love for the club. His second efforts are second to none.

Taj is sub again. Just like Bedford and Jordon.  Goodwin is so boring!!! Taj played well v blues and v eagles.  
 

Freo might just give him a call and offer him a deal with a starting position.

Love child syndrome, that's the only explanation.

Pro tip: Don't read the news. Saved myself some cardiac issues this morning

This is what happens when we don't have any real 2nd ruck on our list, or at least we don't use them.

Meanwhile Sydneare flying….😡

Absolutely baffles me it really does.

Hey who was the guy wearing number 23 who ran on with the boys? Didnt look like an AFL footballer and sure enough a kick for goal and then off.

Yeah maybe it was. I need to go to spec savers 😜

Tough group today. Anyway, *insert token staying away from wrist slashers on gameday thread comment* 

We definitely need an emphatic win today.

Come out breathing fire and fury.

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
