Carlton were amazing tonight, I do not want to play them in the finals.

One thing that stands out about Carlton is their synergy in the middle of the ground. They just seem so connected right now. McKay and Curnow also always know exactly where each other are.
 

We’re the complete opposite. Petty has no idea where JvR is while Viney is more likely to handball to the back of Clayton’s head.

Waiting for the “ Lions will beat us by 15 goals next week on this form” posts.

 

 

 

Frustrating that Brisbane keep introducing genuine goal kicking forwards such as Lohmann and Morris, where as we’re on absolute struggle street with respect to our forward line.

There’s a number of optimistic posters on this forum, and they every right to be optimistic, but I’m a bit concerned that next Friday night is going to be a black night for the club given the opposition and venue we’re facing.

In this wacky season one thing has stayed consistent.

Brereton loves the sound of his own voice.


Port under achieving again. Hinckley the great survivor but at some point the Port board will say enough is enough. 

Butters a great player, but a hot head. Just kidney punched Berry for what should be consecutive game reports.

And just like that Port’s season along with Geelong’s is over.

With Port and Geelong sliding, Essendon unconvincing, and Fremantle and the Dogs hot/cold, I’d like to think a good few weeks from us can really spark everyone’s finals hopes again (mine included).

The spots in the 8 are there to be taken. 

 

I put money on the Lions to win the flag a few weeks ago at crazy odds. i reckon they’ll make a prelim at least 


Jesus, Port are shocking. Brisbane looking good again. 

Unless Port come into some really good form over the rest of the season (unlikely), I don’t think the Hink will be coaching the Power next season. 

I quite like watching other teams getting flogged, it’s almost therapeutic. Particularly when the team has a [censored] as a coach.

Derm and Kelli Underwood… what on earth did we do to deserve this?! 

We must have done a lot.

I was about to start a post about why the media only focuses on Melbourne: surely the problems at Catland deserve more attention.

When we were 6 wins 2 losses the media narrative was how Melbourne's culture issue was not as bas as thought .

We can't win hence I watch and read very very selectively. My mental health is way better for it. 

Go dees


Charlie selfish there. Media won't call him out though.

Time for Ken to go. Had his chances and they need a refresh. Hinkley to Bulldogs has been floating around the traps of late.

 

If we are to win tonight, I sort of feel any sort of buoyancy will be squashed next Friday night. The Lions look bloody good. Thank god Lever will be back.

He’s not the only coach, I can think of another who’s lost 4 finals & straight sets exit at the G

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
