Expect a better effort this week, would be surprised if we get much from Fullarton but at least he’s tall. Turner I’m more optimistic about. Would like to see a score of 80+ to give some hope about the rest of the year.

Freo still win for mine, they beat us consistently when we were good so I’d be shocked to beat them when we’re going like we are. If we can keep them <100 that would be good but May out makes that tough.

And of course I plan to catch the 12:50, I get to the platform at 12:49:50 and the doors are closing... the train leaves bang on at 12:50. What is this [censored] leaving on time to the millisecond? I'll miss the first 15 minutes now.

Japanese driver 😂


I have near zero expectation we can win this game today, which probably means we will.

We've got to turn it around sometime right?

Looking for some enthusiasm from big Tommy and Disco Turner always provides good value IMHO. Good to be getting some more games into the Kolt, Lindsay and Langford.

    This is all about our pressure for me. I don't think we're any chance of winning (upsets do happen, but we don't match up against Fremantle well at all), but in a week where Goodwin's put the heat on us for being "easy to play against", we sure as [censored] better come out and do our best to make it hard for Fremantle.

    A low pressure rating will speak volumes today.

    Can’t imagine we lose by less than 60.. their game style has consistently smashed ours, even when we had form..

    Mind blowing she has a job calling games. There’s been petitions to have her cancelled… she’s that bad..

    petty forward, so turner down back??

    Petty forward?

    So we train all summer to have May, Lever and Petty in defence, and now with May and Lever out we decide to swing Petty forward again?

    And Turner barely gets a crack at being a forward for us this year and is now going to (presumably) play defence?

    Mind boggling. But......desperate times call for desperate measures.

    Could work. Disco was a good back before he was a forward. Think he's a better forward than Petty though

    we just need to stick with and not change him and petty around every week

    • 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 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.
