Ironically its always funny watching Melbourne supporters on here giving shade to the likes of Brisbane and Collingwood whilst our very own club rots away down the bottom.

I enjoy watching Collingwood play and would dream to have the game style they have. It's fun, exciting and brings their supporters through the gates.

I legitimately have more excitement in watching Casey play this weekend over our snooze fest AFL club.

exactly we should win against gws, best casey team since the gf maybe even better

With the Pies it is pretty simple.

About 8 - 10 very skilled ball handlers.

The best player in the game. A brother also an excellent player.

More AFL experience than any other side.

Total buy in and selflessness by the players.

Pace to burn.

Reasonable goal kicking skill.

Well coached.

Ability to recruit players from other clubs.

To a lesser extent, huge support which probably leads to favorable umpiring on nearly every occasion. Can you see the 78m penalty being given against the Pies or the soft free to McStay for a goal, or the ridiculous DeGoey free where he dropped an opponent not in play, all paid at crucial times. A bunch of mates in the MRO and Tribunal also helps.

The Pies aren’t that fast they just move the ball quickly. Constant movement forward then if they cough it up they get back and force the opponent down the line. They work incredibly hard.

It’s funny isn’t it - even if we leave the Brayshaw stuff out of the conversation I’ve only ever viewed him as a sniper and yet he’s lauded as tough

He's just an absolute P.O.S. thug

Was thinking the same, just put some multis on with them in them.

Usually the Good Friday game involving North is a yawn fest but this one could be a good watch.

Carlton's season definitely on the line. Win today and they may still scrape into the final 8. Lose and Voss, like Goodwin is gone

Norf not in Grand Final mode again this week

Not sure if that’s more of a dig at North or Melbourne.

We‘re the only team North can beat.

I know most hate the ground but the closed roof is making for great television viewing.

Time they put some fixed cameras in the roofing gantry to increase the number of camera angles.

Watching Kayo their goal replays seem to be repetitive in coverage. Something they could work on but it does look good in 4K

The roof’s fantastic for TV.

However it should be open for warm early season nights and overcast winter days. Absolutely unbearable and non temperature controlled when it’s mid 20’s plus.


Have North ever played in one of these Good Friday games and not been belted?

Yeah listening to it on the radio & the boundary rider was saying how hot it is & stuffy. It's a big crowd to so all those bodies in there won't help

West coast any chance tonight or am I just hoping?

You want West Coast to win because you hate Essendon?

Or you want West Coast to win because we’ll be the only team to be winless and hence the microscope will be fair and square on the club?

A small chance IMO.. Aside from round 1, West Coast will play their better games at Optus.

More so because I hate essendon.

Man North plays dumb sometimes. Like why do they just keep jumping on the ball. They've been pinged like 5 times.

 

Norths victory over us really doesn’t bode for us winning a game any time soon. We all thought Norf had turned the corner and were going to not be easy beats was perhaps a distraction from how far we have really fallen.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
