I've always rated Hodgey's analysis  not to mention his mellifluous speaking voice and command of the English language.

He must have missed the McVee news if he's saying the defence is all healthy and stable. Big loss

 

Around 80% of Demonlanders typically love every commentator who is positive towards the team & want to lynch anyone critical of the team.

Plus, Hodgey is one of the few commentators who gives it back to BT's BS antics and calls, deserves respect in itself 😁

Cranky must hate this positive talk! Like a vampire when they are touched by sunlight…

I won’t listen to any media talk, positive or negative, because that’s all it is, talk by people justifying their jobs. 

As the saying goes, it’s never as good or as bad as it seems!

Considering what has taken place over the last 6 months i will be very disappointed if we don’t make September 

We should be aiming for Top 4

Objective is my middle name.

But seriously - you can't argue that most posters start foaming at the mouth whenever the Dees get criticised yet praise the $h!t out of any journalist that writes us in a positive light.

I agree. 

Its the time of the year where all the obnoxious predictions are put to the airwaves. Many have us bouncing back into the top 8 but one i tend to keep my eye is coaches under the pressure valve. Goody along with Voss and Longmuire and Nicks are the consistent theme here. I do think Goody is undeserving of the attention for just one bad season, but the style and manner in which we imploded as a club, its easy to understand why. His deal ends at 2026. At what point do you start to think his job comes under the spotlight? 

Our first 6 rounds are: GWS @G; Norf @ Marvel; Sun @G; Cats @KP; Bombers @ Adelaide; Freo @G. I cant see us running the table, but i can see anything from 5-1 to 2-4 ledger after the first 6. I think pressure mounts at anything worse than 3-3.

Our next 6 is easier with a 5-1 to 3-3 range. Which brings us to a 10-2 : 5-7 mid-season tally. Things would have be get diabolical to be worse than 5-7, but i think, equally, a lot would have to go right to get near a 10-2 position after the first 12 rounds.  Goody would want a positive win/loss after 12 to have any chance of finals. Its really hard to have any certainty on this given the evenness of the competition we face in the first 12 rounds and just how bad our last 12-18 months has been. I do hop we have settled and turned the corner and are back competing, but there is a slither of MFCSS I have that we may not respond to last years cluster as we all hope.

Not me, I'm actually hoping to go through the whole season not consuming any AFL media and watching games on mute.

That is known as the Binman Method and is not for the faint-hearted.

That sound proof room at home must do wonders blocking out the outside world 😉

 

I’m thinking that we end up 3-6 th depending on injuries and how we adapt to the revised game plan and how The Duke, Tholstrup, Disco, Jeffo, Langford and the Spreadsheet can step up. We now bat pretty deep, can’t wait for the real stuff.👍😁

So, that means 80% of us want to lynch some cranky guy!

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
