That's definitely not me. I'm the guy critiquing the umpires

"That's not a mark"

"That's not 15"

BALLLLLLLLLL!

"You've got to pay them both ways"

"FFS"

"There used to be one umpire who's doing a better job than these 4"

Kosssieeeeeee!

"They need to get rid of the insufficient intent rule, that call was b*[censored]"

"Kick a goal son! How good was that!"

Hello, is that me?

I was going off last week about the inconsistency - does my head in

    The six day turnaround is a test for players and fitness staff, but does the AFL understand how hard it can be washing and drying a pair of lucky Demons socks with such a short break between games?

    Solution - second wear is inside out. Third wear is swap feet. One wash every three weeks.

    Very Suprised that Goodwin has bought Fritsch back into the side after only 1 week.

    Hope it works,

    win tonight and there is a pulse left in the Season

    I think he needed to after Turner went out to be honest. There’s no Lever, so if May or T-Mac go down, we only have Petty as a reliable like for like.

    If Petty isn’t in our forward line and no Fritsch, then it’s Fullarton and a bunch of smalls VS Vlaustin, Broad and Macintosh in the air…. Probably a bad time.

    GUILTY as charged, yer 'onour. Not that I've actually managed to see much play this year as Watch AFL and I are having Words - my voucher number doesn't work and I can only watch because some kind Demonlander has loaned me their credentials, but I don't want to rely on that because yannow I paid for a digital membership for myself....

    Anyway, GO DEES! I'm off to bed. It's after midnight here and I just can't stay up until 3 or 4am any more. Wrecks me the next day.

    I understand that, but we also had 23 tackles in the Forward Line last week.

    Fritsch needs to contribute to the Team a lot more…

    Hopefully the light has switched on inside his head..

    Dees by 3 goals it should be more but we have the lead weight back in the forward line this week.

    Classy.

    So with Melksham out injured, who would you have brought in ?


    I'm here.

    Trigger warning- small handful of dees players on the ground in a circle - kicking around a soccer ball.

    All about how hard we work off the ball tonight - our scoring will flow off the back of that.

    line for line (no J. Smith)), we have the tiges covered.

    In the ground, should be a decent crowd.. Few Richmond folk have infiltrated our area in M51

    Hunner percent, zero argument here.

    I’ve said it elsewhere on here before but Fritsch has never been strong defensive or pressure wise at all.

    What has changed is the goals dried up, which made this wayyyyy more evident.

    Had a look at the last few years and the following is his ranking in our team on averages:


              Tackles   Tackle I50  Pressure acts

    2021    19th            8th                    14th

    2022     24th           7th                   19th

    2023    27th            15th                 22nd

    Gates open at 5:30pm (MCC 5pm)

    Order of events:

    6.50pm - Pre-Match Entertainment
    7.01pm - Light Horses Lap of Honour
    7.12pm - Observance Ceremony
    7.18pm - Joint Banner Run Through
    7.30pm - Match Start

    Note: they pause entry through all gates during the Observance Ceremony (at 7.12pm). If you're not inside the ground by then, you'll be held outside.

    With increased security measures it’ll take longer to process everyone. They really should open the gates at 4:30pm imo. At Easter Monday’s Hawks vs Geelong match there were folks who missed the first quarter due to the time it takes to get everyone in.

    I will be interested to see the way the coaching team perform this evening.

    Last week was really the first time I have seen them win the match day coaching. They were positive and proactive.

    Need the same tonight.

    Want to see pressure, Pressure, Pressure and a clearly defined task for Viney. He responded very well last week.

    Go Dees!

    Totally agree. Small wins continuously.

    With the amount of upsets already in the Season, we can claw our way back, but we must get on a winning streak

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
