This just frustrates me. Cats don’t really have any stars in their prime anymore. Sure Danger and Cameron are great but well past their prime.

It’s hard to understand how this team keeps going top 4 other than to think this is all to do with the footy dept.

It’s the nature of this season. 

Sides are going to make top 4 who just aren’t at the level of top 4 sides of years past. 

I believe this is the first ever season in which all 18 clubs have had a stretch of going 1-4 or worse. 

Sydney last week lost by 100.

Port just struggled to put away a bottom 6 side (us).

GWS has lost on expected score for almost every one of their last 6 wins. 

Geelong has multiple 10 goal losses and struggled last week against a bottom 4 side.

Brisbane isn’t even in the top 4!

    The Hawks are up and comers who are having a "red hot go".

    To see them them knock off the baggers would make this weekend almost tolerable.

    True, but the weekend hasn't been that bad. C'wood & Essendon lost.  (and we did not get beaten by 100 points as many posters were predicting).

    I spoke to a few members at the footy last night who said they got an email from the club this week asking their opinion about Wildcard round. Anyone else get this?

    Haw are back

    So very depressing…

    Far be it from me to approve of Hawthorn being good, but are there any non-Melbourne teams you'd be happy with being good?

    No. I have seen far too many enemies win Flags

    Just turned on the footy to see that Carlton are getting humped and Curnow has just hobbled off the ground. As Bruce McAveney might stay. Delicious!

    Something that nearly ever member of Demonland likes to ignore. 
    In a competition this close, luck and especially injury luck, is one of the key factors in winning premierships.

    Hawks only 2.4% behind Carlton now. Keep up their rate of scoring and they'll overtake them on the ladder.

    It’s amazing how exciting football can be by moving the ball quickly, tackling hard and hitting targets. If only …….

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
