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

Is he actually a good coach? Which club is going after a guy who’s had 10 years and done nothing? If I was Port I’d be going after Leppitsch.

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

     

     

    We can't even beat them on our ground when we've practically been full strength.

    We go in next week without trac and lever isn't  a definite. 

    I'm not confident at all

    Reckon before we worry about lions we focus on Nth no gimmee the way where playing. Definitely something wrong at the club that Fred loss was inexplicable. Supporters are mushrooms kept in the dark and you know the rest

    No, he just likes whinging, criticising and posting the same comment week after week.

    Just a reminder to all Dee supporters. Here is the definition of Supporter
     

    someone who supports a particular idea, group, or person:

     

    Let’s get behind our MFC people. 
     

    Edit, stop poo-ing on the club. It’s ok to not be happy at times, but too many continue to harp on and on and on, and criticise the club.

    In light of our challenges forward GWS seem happy to just bang it fwd -easier to do that with Hogan and Riccardi there to launch and green to crumb

    they don’t seem to be much “lowering their eyes” and I don’t see super leading patterns or much “strategy”

    Sydney OTOH move the ball with great pace (which we can’t) and when the ball comes in that fast you don’t need a Gary Ablett snr to convert 

    we have neither key fwds who can compete in the air or a fast counter attack and our scores attest to that

    I do but we had no control in losing him 

    Incorrect.  We chose to trade Hogan, unlike Jordon who was a FREE AGENT.

    Gws have youth and speed. They dont tend to dawdle  ( i.e stop and let oppos sset up )   Something to ponder for us

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

    They are a lot like us in 2021 without being as good defensively. They will not win it this year nor any other in the foreseeable future. Right now it’s Sydney, Pies and Lions for mine.

    Swans v Giants looks like the third thriller so far this round. We’ll have the blowout game for sure.

    Has anyone been to gws's home ground? When I was staying down that way in Sydney earlier in the year I walked past it & it looked OK.

    Im not in denial and have my head buried in the sand that our club has botched up the last 2 trades with spuds & given away players with taken for a bag of chips

    Oh dear… just seen the Port score 😬😬

    Can someone briefly fill me in? Were Brisbane firing on all cylinders and/or were Port terrible?

    It's one thing to have an opinion but a different thing entirely to keep harping on about it and posting the same thing over and over and over and over again.  I think we all know how you feel.

    Leaving that one hanging @Dee Zephyr - 😅 which way is the blow out? 😇

  • Quote

    The Giants looked like world beaters early in the season. Their form drop off has been even worse than ours.

    If we lose tonight, the AFL should put up the poll of which top 8/expected top 8 team is the biggest pretender.

    Geelong last night, who handed the baton to Port today who are now handing the baton to GWS who better not be handing it over to us.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      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?
