2 average teams. Cats with only 1 injury concern

Surely the Cats disappear forever now (have predicted this since 2017)

Apart from them and Langford, can’t see too many more kicking their goals.

Dodo did a magnificent job of getting that list together. Incompetence for over 20 years. Took them long enough to get rid of him.

Happy new year Luc!

Many thanks layzie.  Hope yours is fab.

I'm back on DL now that the season is close ... will be a very good year for the mighty dees ❤️💙


At least these games have a bit of more intensity than last weeks training drill. 

Of course the only time they send these guys down to that $hithole is during a worthless practice match. Now that Hawthorn are temporarily good again after 1 season, they’ll never be sent there again for another 10 years. 🤡🤦‍♂️

Listening to the commentators you would think they are all paid up Cats members the way they talk about them… sickening 

Geez Nate Caddy is a solid forward. He would have worked so well with JVR.

It’s practice. 
Do they travel during the season?

Yeah but we have Jeffo!

Watching Kako tonight shows we don’t need to be to worried about loosing Pickett if those sorts of players are in the draft

he wasn't in the draft tho, not really - he was in the peptides' academy 

you can see why they were prepared to trade us their pick so we couldn't nominate him

hopefully marcus prassad is as promising for us as he is for them

Windsor is pretty sweet though… him streaming across the MCG Is a thing of beauty 


I liked the way Kako always gave the football back to the umpire. If it’s good enough for basketball…

It's so hard to know what to take out of these games. A lot of times in the TAB* when an unexpected horse won a race the punters would rush back to the form guides on the wall to check whether there was a factor they had missed. Usually this wouldn't improve one's punting; but the same during the year if, say, Kako kicks 40 goals or Geelong drops down to 12th we'll then overrate hindsight.

As for watching these games I'm sure I'm not the only one who likes to have these kind of things, plus other sports, on in the background. I suspect if I was born in America I'd be spoiled for choice for nightly sports viewing (assuming I liked their biggest sports in this parallel universe.)

 

* This is ancient history. I'd guess the only people still in TABs are tragics who either can't afford pay TV or are Luddites who even resisted using email for years.

Teams don't defend much in practice matches and sometimes just fully experiment so the results are totally meaningless.

Positional changes, player roles and performances of new recruits is the reason to watch them.

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
