Just read dimmas comments, gee he didn't hold back. I think he was a little frustrated & rightly so 

Mark Neeld vibes... where is veneer of mindfull/compassionate/empathic coach at Tigerland now?

How GWS have fallen.

Early season GF contenders

Reminds me of a few other teams

Each year just before round 1 I choose my Grand Finalists, Brownlow medalist and Coleman medalist. This year I chose a GWS v Blues GF. I felt smug after 7 rounds, but not now. GWS are a mile away from premiership contention. Swans v Blues looks the most likely now, although I reckon it might a year for a GF bolter like Dogs 2016, or Dees in 2021.

 

Momentum shifts in modern football can be unbelievable, hope the Giants can keep it up. 


Gee wouldn’t mind Bedford’s smarts, tagging capabilities and leg speed on our list. Where did the Giants find him 😉

We wanted him to stay but he didn't. 

 

Gee that Hogan bloke, a tall forward who can take a mark, would be handy in our forward line too! 

I seriously miss Hogan.

You can't teach his contested marking craft and body work.

Most forwards just don't have it in their kit bag and rely mostly on burst speed, leading patterns, some agility, timing and blocks from others.

The stand and deliver that he brings is invaluable.

Tex & Hawkins the other two stand outs in this aspect atm when fit and on the park.

Yes true and maybe he left because we preferenced a couple of other small forwards ahead of him. 

Really need Carlton to win this to help our finals chances. GWS don’t have an overly difficult run home.

Trying to watch the Rugby test, can't say it appeals to me at all.

Yeah well I prefer the Steven May and Premiership that we turned him into.

Just now, At the break of Gawn said:

Briggs is giving TDK a bath. TDK looks so average right now.

But the commentators said TDK was soooo good

I could see the rivalry alive between Clarko and Dimma. I didnt mind Harwick saying what he did. Better than getting learning in my view.

They are actually very close mates.

 

Went into this round thinking Essendon, Port and GWS were the sides above us we wanted to aim to catch. 

Now it feels like it’s Collingwood, the Bulldogs and Gold Coast. 

Such is the evenness of this season. 

Which should be a reminder to all of us - don’t write us off. There’s still something to make of 2024 for us yet.

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day and the Demons have made the long trip west to take on Fremantle tonight at Optus Stadium. Can Melbourne make it two from two to start the season, and what are you hoping to see from the Dees under the lights in Perth?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
