The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season.

Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year.

Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit.

That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for.

Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints.

Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder.

Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

There's a whole host of interesting games coming up this week

And I must say that I'm back to really enjoying the footy with all the fast & furious offense at play ... and the open forward lines

Far less congestion although there's still a number of stoppages (but less around the ground and more centre bounces?)

Takes us back to the '80's & 90's

If we could only fast-forward to having a productive offense ourselves!! (will happen, but when? haha)

However, defensive tactics will come back into vogue sooner or later!

The big race is on in Saudi Arabia

3am Melbourne time Monday ... impossible viewing time but it should be easy to maintain a media blackout and enjoy it over breakfast.

Oscar's only 3 points behind Norris so it's another big one for our home town lad

if he wins the chip this year i wouldnt even care if we didnt win a game this year would make up for it easily

Formula 1 is as interesting as watching paint dry. Dull as ditchwater.


'What are the best results for the Demons?'

...i.e., that keep us somehow remotely in touch.

It's come to that, hasn't it 🥺

If we can’t win our own games it doesn’t matter what other teams do.

If we cannot score, our defence matters little, other results even less.

For us to win, We need to score more often .

Story of my life in 6 words.

 

Oh, I hate Collingwood.

There was a brief period where I only hated the fans and club, but had a certain level of acceptance for the players overall, even if a couple were annoying.

But that's gone. I gave them a chance. I set aside my prejudices and then saw them with clear eyes, and what I saw was foulness and dishonour.

I bestow curses upon them. May they malinger and rot, may their every effort fall limp, may they be notable only in moments of shame, may every fleeting appearance of success be whisked away in the wind and their every moment of sweetness turn to ash in their mouth.

In short, may they become St Kilda.

Tip: Brisbane to win.

I gave up on F1 back in the 2000s after years without seeing a car pass another car on the track.

Haven’t seen Brissy this year, let’s see what this Ashcroft kid is up too

From what I've seen... the younger isn't as instantly potent as the elder, and much less a contested type, but has had a couple of games already where he has really shown up in moving the ball aggressively and effectively.

They look identical, haha

Umps sure do love the Filth

The demons are now way anywhere near the quality of these two teams we deserve our lowly position on the ladder blame game plan coach recruiting and over paid past it players

Do you recall the original ‘Wired World of Sports’ ?

After a crash: “…and at last something is happening. These bloody cars have just been going round and round and round…”

Just remembered I haven't heard BT or JB call a game this year. So good.

  • 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.

    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.
