Demonland

Melbourne-esque with a goal kicked with 6 seconds to go in the quarter right after 3 shots that missed everything.

Saints couldn’t hit the side of a barn.

Why does Membrey only play well against us?

Nothing adequate without giving up a Top 22 player in addition to any picks and even then we still probably lose.

Clayton Oliver has cleared out to a massive lead over Christian Petracca. It’s almost unassailable. 246. Clayton Oliver 186. Christian Petracca 149. Angus Brayshaw 128. Jack Viney 105. Max Gawn 82. Steven May 71. Ed Langdon 53. Kysaiah Pickett 52. James Jordon 37. Jake Lever 36. Luke Jackson 32. Bayley Fritsch 31. Harry Petty 26. James Harmes 24. Michael Hibberd 22. Jake Bowey Tom Sparrow 18. Ben Brown 17. Jake Melksham 11. Alex Neal-Bullen 8. Tom McDonald Sam Weideman 5. Jayden Hunt Charlie Spargo 4. Christian Salem 3. Joel Smith 1. Trent Rivers

Dayne Zorko won’t be punished by AFL over sledge which left Harrison Petty in tears.

Strange that he is apologising for a comment he denied making yesterday.

Bit of barracking going on from this commentator.

Who comes in and who goes out?

Coming Soon (Actually I'll be flying at the time this is posted so I'll update this top post once I land).

Friday evening will see a watershed event in the Melbourne Football Club’s quest for back to back premierships. A loss will almost certainly see the team plummet out of the top four and most likely set up a difficult encounter with the Tigers but a win will leave the team safely within the top four for the second successive season. The concern is that the team has barely been at the top of its game over recent months with only two high class performances since its 17 game winning streak ended in late May; the outlier games being against Brisbane in Round 15 and Fremantle in Round 20. Last week’s effort when it squeaked home with fifteen seconds to spare was its first against a Victorian team since its win over wooden spoon favourite North Melbourne. The Lions’ form has been nothing to write home about either — they’ve dropped their fair share of matches recently and were unimpressive in beating the Saints in their last outing. A little over a month ago, they lost to Essendon at their home fortress, the Gabba. It’s a little surprising therefore that they’re favoured by the bookmakers to win a game against a team that has been fancied by them all season. In any event, neither side is in sparkling form and this leads me to the view that this is really an unpredictable contest — the outcome of which could well be decided by which club turns up to play on the night. And if that’s the case then I’m swayed into thinking that the team more likely to finish inside the top four at the end round is Melbourne. The reason is that the Demons have the advantage of the factor that has also played a role in its fall from outright leader of the pack to a potential finish outside the top four. That factor is that the club has had to contend with a particularly tough draw in the second half of the season that has seen it come up against top eight teams nearly every week over that period. This means that the Demons have been subjected to high levels of pressure and intensity on a weekly basis which is the perfect preparation for any team on the cusp of a finals series. That has certainly not been the case with the Brisbane Lions (or a couple of the other more highly fancied contenders like Geelong who seem to come up against bottom teams who are itching to see the season’s end). The other aspects that see the Demons as more likely to win is the tremendous midfield led by Clayton Oliver, Christian Petracca and Jack Viney but with some powerful backup and the strong mature leadership of Max Gwan with Viney as his lieutenant. Then there’s the uber strong defence with great leadership from cool-headed Jake Lever, Steven May and Christian Salem. If the forwards stand up tall this week and exert maximum pressure, they should see their way into a Qualifying Final, probably against Sydney, either in Sydney or at home. Melbourne by 25 points.

I think he marked it outside the line anyway but i think the actual free was because he played on outside the line which players do all the time.

I don't believe it does. I use radio.co to stream.
