Essendon and Carlton both winning would be the worst start possible to this round. Got an ominous sort of feeling about it for tomorrow.

    Ok

    Halftime quick question.

    What type of players were/ are you?

    You've just received the ball ot 25 m from goal with nobody near you for thirty m.

    Do you dribble it through or smash it into the top stand?

    I think you already know the answer Deevs

    Hit the post. Possibly with both the ball and then myself.

    In fact, yeah, my two options would be hit the post or slip during the kick and not even make the distance.

    Will be fun to see who is left by round 19 against the giants. But, hey, you never know, the Bombers have been on the cusp of a big upswing for about 13 years...

    And these low crowds against low drawing interstate teams are quite common ... Hawks, North, Demons, Bulldogs & Saints have had to sell them off to balance the books

    But low crowds at Docklands never looks 3/4 empty as do the same sized crowds at the MCG

    Bombers have got 80k-90k members with an enormous supporter base ... so 25k for them is pitiful

    Footnote: To not have a 3rd boutique-type stadium in a City with 9/10 teams is baffling. Princes Park was the ideal venue but the horse has probably bolted

    Sanders is looking a tad better so far this season. Seems to have found his legs, poise and mojo

    Imagine his impact with a bit more bulk after another few pre-seasons

    If a player just watches the ball go ob, how is that not insufficient intent on his part?

    Oh what a shame to see Cripps hurt himself after launching his knee between naughton's shoulders.

    Took an ump 40 meters away from the play to call that obvious incorrect disposal against the Blues

    Umpires call is a goal. Completely inconclusive on the footage but the Blues get the benefit of the doubt ....again.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
