    Doesn’t mean you have to keep saying it over and over and over again, especially in the Non-MFC thread. We get it, we all know what happened. You reminding us at any and every opportunity isn’t gonna change what happened so why do it?

    binman - I haven’t watched any games this weekend but looked at the current scores and thought exactly the same as you predicted.   Bizarre. 
    Do different clubs load differently ??🤔🤔🤗

    According to Libby Birch, it sounds as if collectivey clubs are taking a different approach to their high performance programs this year.

    And then there is individual program differences- eg the cats model of managing players ad opposed to ours of not doing so.

    But I was more referring to the bye period.

    Every year for the last 5 years or so there are crazy results around the mid point of the season.

    A big factor is the accumulative fatigue all teams experience at the half way point of the season.

    Another is the aforementioned differences in programs, including when they do a big block of intensity and density and how they manage the bye period.

    It's all made worse by the AFL's greed. They should go back to all teams having their bye at the same time.

    But that ain't gonna happen because the AFL, nor fox and 7, dont want a football free weekend.

    So instead we have the ridiculous situation of byes being spread over several weeks meaning it's all over the place in terms of when teams play each other - eg, both coming off a bye, only one coming off a bye, one team not yey having their bye and the other 2 weeks post bye etc etc.

    And this year it's even more absurd with the teams playing in OR having 2 byes.

    It is just ridiculous.

    Start practicing the 'No Reid, no Eagles' taunt because it is going to be fresh and current for 15 years.

    Like having Judd but no Cousins, Kerr, Fletcher or Chick.

    Lol. The ultimate winning culture midfield.

    Some people enjoy being miserable. How you deal with disappointment is a choice - I don’t know why some people choose self-flagellation over and over.

    Eagles are putrid. 

    Nick Larkey is wasted at North

    So is it “no Reid, no Eagles”?

    Maybe we can scoop both Reid and Larkey with some clever trading 🤔🙄🤗

    Clarko would probably need to be on the bench now to steady the team, but because he can't control himself he has to stay in the box.

    Roos really shot themselves in the foot last year not getting Reid. That win hasn't exactly built a winning culture and cost them a generational player.

    Loyalty is a rare thing in today's game so you have to admire him for that. Maybe we'll see him in red & blue four years from now when both his knees are shot. 

    … and we win a Flag with him? Awesome!

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
