How do you reckon goody will sleep tonight after seeing what port dished out?

You posed the same silly question in the pregame thread and nobody bothered replying. Same thing will likely happen in this thread too, unless of course there’s someone who considers it a valid question. Pfft surely no one on here would, though.

Oops, spoke too soon…

Was at the MCG tonight, Blues kicking off with 8 behinds in the 1st quarter, playing disjointed, safe, no risk football until 32 points down in the 4th quarter and then going hell for leather in a powerful burst but McGovern botching the after siren set shot. He really should have gone off after that head knock and the kick given to someone else ...

The Blues have botched a golden opportunity over the last month sitting in 2nd spot and now have to fight tooth and nail for the last 3 games just to make the 8.

Carlton got what we deserved tonight, you can't play 10 minutes of football in the 4th quarter and expect to win games.

Still, it could be worse, I could follow the Swans 😁 They seem to be imploding in a big way. In this crazy season maybe the Blues continue that 4th quarter form and go on a run into September. My expecations are low but you never know ...

Top of the head Sunday morning rant.

Would not mind if Freo won it.

I'd also cop GWS. Love Tobes and Jesse.

Pies and Blues always repugnant.

Port are undeserving as is their coach.

Brisbane would be almost acceptable.

Had a gutful of the Cats and they're probably not good enough.

Dogs are a chance but not sure they can maintain this form which needs a 2016 repeat.

Calling it: Bulldogs v Dockers GF. 

Which would be ironic given the number if doggies fans calling for bevo's head just 5 weeks ago.

Just watched the final 2 minutes from last night. McGovern has kicked a goal after the siren before so he knew what to do.

But he completely botched it. I wondered if players went to him just to calm him & they did.  Cripps was obviously confident in him because he pumped the fists.

But with the head knock because it all happened so quickly, it will be interesting how he is during the week

It really is time for teams to get multiple alternate strips or away strips like soccer. Last night was a joke and now Giants and Hawks are hard to distinguish in the sun.

Is it Retro Round or Clash Strip Round? Seriously! Firstly our game, then last night and now this.  Virtually impossible to differentiate.  AFL just about the only sporting organisation in the world that would allow this to happen. Unfathomable.

GWS’ accuracy was the only thing keeping them going the last month, and helped them against us last week. 

2.9 today. Of course it’s against Hawthorn that they finally have an accuracy stinker. 

Hawks win this, they make finals. Brace yourselves, everyone. It’s happening.

    2024 Player Reviews: #18 Jake Melksham

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.
