Norf, based of exposed form, will pull our pants down.

Sounds like our form is going to be exposed.

    Clayton’s hand reinjured at training…clearly hasn’t been right all year. 

    Any mention of how long?

    No mention that he will miss, but they were doing a tackling drill and Kolt got Clarry and he got up grimacing and holding his hand.

    I thought the guys were on a 6 day break? Was there a training session? 

    A bloke from an inner suburb  on the north western side of town said he  thought he heard something went on down at the local in regard to wagering.

    They are. It ended today. If there was a training session today (on a Sunday?) they weren’t all in attendance.

    edit: they did train today. Not all were in attendance

    After watching North vs Pies today I would say that North are red-hot favourites to [censored] us next week. 

    After watching north for 12 rounds id say they are red hot favourites for the spoon

    If it was / is that dodgy he was probably a week to week proposition anyway.

    Then you have to ask, why did we play him vs Brissy when all the signs and the timing said don't.  He even came off the track after the Cap run that week and looked very worried, chatting to trainers for at least 3 to 5 mins.

    Give him that week off, get the opp, then another 4 to 6 to fully heal.  He's back for the Saints match (latest).

    Instead we gave him the bye to get over the opp and straight back into it again for Anzac eve.  Has never looked fully right besides maybe one or two reasonable games since.

    He effectively missed the pre-season, and has been playing catch-up ever since. Regardless of what's going on with his hand, he's never going to be fully right until next year.

    The players were mostly back today for the mid season breakfast meeting with their club sponsor. Training was after breakfast and I was told the emphasis was on goal kicking. From what I saw on the news the emphasis was on tackling and pressure (Clarrie came uo saw in a wrestling match with Kolton).

    I believe McVee wasn't available not sure if he has an injury. I would really like to see him in the midfield for a stint.

    Our best in form wins came against Port Adelaide, Hawthorn and Western Bulldogs.

    Can't count St Kilda as a one of our best wins lol. They're absolutely crud..

    No coincidence that BB played alright in those games where we had blokes like ANB and Langdon playing their natural position. 

    And beating the previously-undefeated Cats. Which feels like it was in a different season.

    Pies were bad first half.  Loading?  Were witches hats for Norf training run.  Switched on 2nd half and shot them lame duck that the shinbones are.  We got this.

    Yep.

    Unfortunately same goes for petty, McAdam, BBB and possibly tmac (I say possibly because tmac has looked in remarkably good nick given he had an interrupted preseason).

    Jon Ralph had a red hot crack at her last week on Foxtel's mid week tackle.

    He said you never hear from her in the tough times.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
