What georgiades can do & how he plays is what i want to see van rooyen do

Well you won’t see it this week because he has been dropped, again. Give the poor guy some continuity, as a forward, to see what he has.

    There are so many parallels between the Deez and Carltank, it's both uncanny and horrifying. Our list is in slightly better shape, but unless we take more radical remedial action on the list, and the FD, we'll be them soon enough. And they are starring into the abyss which is playing centre half-forward and has just kicked its fifth for the quarter.

    Oh come on, surely you are kidding! In the first 5 rounds, he took 5 marks....total! He was rightfully dropped, never set the world on fire in the twos and has been very ordinary since. Deserves to be dropped again, at the moment he offers very little

    Except the Port player is mobile, knows where to be to get the ball, and can take a mark or two.

    One difference ... I'm glad we've got Kozzy Pickett and not Jesse Motlop.

    Funny you mention Jesse Motlop. I watched the Carlton game with 2 mates. One's Filth, the other Norf. Ask asked each other the hypothetical question: how many players would you want out of Carlton. at our respective clubs. The Pies guy, who I'm pretty sure is a retired spook, said he wouldn't want any of them near Collingwood. The Norf guy nominated Weeta, Curnow and some c-grader. I nominated about six guys, including Motlop. I might be wrong, but recon he has some serious upside for a 21 year old.

    Imagine if we decided to drop players because of bad kicking.

    He's actually out with hamstring tightness from training during the week

    Struggle getting into games played at the SCG. The ground is joke-size.

    The joint looks half empty on TV.

    Carlton's list management is amazing. How the hell did Carlton let Kennedy go?

    He was good at GWS as well. Probably more to do with Voss as coach.

    The kicking inside F50 in the Swans v Dogs match is insane. Brilliant to watch. Some of the field kicking is similar.

    Their 50’s look fairly open. Why does our always look so congested?

    And even more to the point, how the hell he's not running around with us?

    Gawn would love these umpires. Grundy did the exact same thing against him for no frees.

    Yes obviously the umpires had a forensic session on blocking in the ruck during the week and rediscovered the rule, although I must admit I couldn’t see what Grundy was doing that he and others haven’t been doing all season. But it’s cost him 3 blocking frees against in centre bounces.

    • 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.
