That surface is ridiculously poor. Great match but that ground area is a disgrace.

Players slipping and falling over in that forward 50. It’s going to cause a bad knee injury soon !!!

    Logan Morris and now Joel Freijah

    Every week we’re being reminded of the second round picks we traded to move up and grab Tholstrup in 2023 😭

    (still love you Kolt)

    don’t forget about the dozen of 2nd round picks that are average players or barely play an AFL game

    We obviously don’t rate the odds of the second round in the draft. Whether a it’s bringing in Langdon or Hibberd or trading up for Kozzi or Kolt, overall we have more wins than losses (eg McAdam)

    Sydney win by 4 goals if they kick remotely straight.

    Dogs dodged a bullet

    I agree it’s clear we don’t rate it but I reckon that’s been a problem the past few years and has left our depth exposed

    I reckon we had/have multiple areas of need that should have been identified and tried to be fixed with more picks from the draft, rather than moving up marginally or trading for NQRs like Billings, McAdam etc (I mean when was the last time we bought in a Hibberd or Langdon?)

    Reckon it’s just me but I don’t mind Papley. Gets in people’s faces and they fall for it. Love his energy and wish we had him

    Yeah. Sorry Dub. It might just be you.😀

    From a show of hands, most people I know just want to beat the little [censored] with a stick.

    Probably like most “agitators” in other teams, to be fair. They are great when they are playing in your team, otherwise not so much.

    What annoys me most about Papley is he was a Casey development player and we let him slip

    Anyone seeing him play underage footy at Bunyip could see he was going to make the big time

    Plus Grandson of a legend

    If the players association had any balls, they would at least stir the pot and try to get the matches moved due to the unsafe surface.

    well, clearly not seeing as he went so late in the rookie draft!

    he's a big time player that's for sure

    Umpires nice to let Nick Daicos know to get out of the 5 m exclusion zone as he ran right though it.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
