Gee would love to know the spray Kingsley gave that team at half time because it clearly worked.

Goes to show you can still do it.

If he was a real coach he would have waited for the momentum swing and taken the learnings.

    I’ll preface this by saying that I know he’s absolutely not one and never was or will be, but Matt Rowell gives me creepy serial killer vibes. The type that really stalks and gets to know his victims over weeks, if not months. Then keeps a trophy. Chewed grass is always found at the scene; leading to him being dubbed the ‘GCK’ (the Grass Chewing Killer).

    looks like they might finally be contenders.

    And given the talent at their disposal its about time

    Suns could win the flag, then get 3 top 18 picks, plus Curnow, plus Kalani White.

    Good to see West Coast staying in the game against Freo until the 25 minute mark of the first quarter.

    Rivalry round is AWESUM

    This season has proved a disaster for the AFL - and even more so for the broadcasters.

    Five rounds still to go and there's only one team outside the 8 who realistically can make finals, the dogs (by the by has a team ever not made the finals with a percentage north of 125%?)

    Meaning we have five weeks with any number of rubbish games, including tonight.

    And tonight's game highlights another related worry for the AFL and broadcasters - the gap in performance levels of the top 9 teams and the bottom 9 teams.

    My fear is that the fact that the eight almost settled - and you have to fear for the Dogs' chances with the Suns win over the Lions today leaving the western suburb crew a game outside the eight - the AFL will do something knee-[censored] and stupid, like introduce a wildcard round. Spare us!

    As for the Dogs in ninth spot with a percentage of 125-plus, that has to be the definition of flat track bully.

    For a fleeting moment Brisbane could have taken top spot.

    Would love to see Collingwood finish first, only to get Geelong week one. I reckon the Cats could get it done.

    Fair chance the loser would come up against GWS or Hawthorn the following week. Both could take the Pies on their day.

    Just anyone but Collingwood please.

    Laughable that Hardwick thinks Witts should even remotely be in the conversation for AA ruck.

    Surely a great coach like McRae couldn't go out in straight sets!!! Any coach who allows that, no matter how well their team performed during the season, must be a complete dud, with a thread on the fan site dedicated to how they have to go...

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
