Port have some big talent and are playing a good brand of football. This is making me feel even worse about our situation.

JFC. Find something else to worry about.

I hate this manufactured “rivalry” that’s come about from one silly interaction between Hinkley and Sicily last year. Proper rivalries are organic and take a lot longer to develop.

Why can’t we just play a game of flippin’ footy without having to rely on drama to garner interest?

Eh?

This rivalry actually IS organic

The players and the clubs genuinely don’t like each other, dating back long before Hinkley / Ginnivan / Sicily

Soft free to give Hawks the last goal I thought. Port’s ball handling has been something to behold. It’s frenetic ball movement but it just keeps coming off for them, and their system means there are team mates always nearby to receive, unlike us. They are making the Hawks look like a bit like us. I suspect Mitchell will make a few changes and the Hawks will give it a big crack in the second half.

Whatever comes out will get 1 day in the news, way down the runsheet then be buried. Cats get the best media run in the game

the only other player that has gone to prison is benny cousins, this will all be much bigger then that of that what he has done or accused of is 1000x worse, the stengle incident and all that other bs will come out after it

I can hear Wheatley already “incredibly sad day for a club that does so much right, to be let down like this must have Geelong people scratching their heads.. etc” before moving on and never mentioning it again

I don’t recall any rivalry between them. But even so, the focus on the whole aeroplane thing is overkill.

That paragon of football media, Paul Wheatley, I assume?

You’re loving this, aren’t you. Revelling, I’d say. Happy as a pig in sch!tt. Giddy with excitement. Not even an hour ago another Demonlander messaged me to vent about posters who can barely conceal their joy at the position our club’s in. Your name was exhibit A. and not for the first time. I don’t expect you’ll rein it in, just wanted to let you know how cringe it is.

Cheers happy jack 😉

Started when they appointed Clarkson mid finals series, escalated when they poached junior Burgoyne, exploded with the finals series last year

The clubs genuinely don’t like each other

Lots of clubs genuinely don’t like each other but the hype leading up to the match isn’t off the charts like this.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
