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.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
