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.

That's better cranky.

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: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
