I think I just saw Bucks at Centrelink

Why couldn't GWS be this inaccurate against us?

As much as I like Collingwood making a fool of themselves the banner above is them taking the [censored] out of themselves based on this banner below from a few years ago. I do however don't think they thought about the added bonus of this game being during the day and not at night. I'm not giving them that credit.

Happy to have anyone on the podcast. If anyone wants to dip their feet in the water but is nervous or unsure perhaps call in one week and see how you go.

I knew someone had to use it.

This thread could age well. ?

We’re top now based on Match Ratio. ?

Herald Sun headline well no doubt be No Dusty, No Worries.

We haven’t won yet but yes. we went 8-0 and did not make the finals with a final 4.

% does not matter if we win.

Bulldogs have folded like lawn chairs

First spot is ours to lose.

Mitch Hannan has a great pair of mitts.

This is the first time the Dogs have been challenged/pressured this year and they’re crumbling.

Have they found Dusty yet? Saw him on a milk carton during the week.

Think of the compounded interest we would have earned since 1964.

The MFC website including it's social media channels is so much better now than it was in the early days of the internet and even what it was say just 5 years ago.

@Supermercado is always welcome back on. I believe work commitments have kept him away.

The Casey Demons were untroubled for the third week in a row as they went on a four quarter romp at Marvel Stadium to record a 107 point win over an undermanned bottom-of-the-ladder North Melbourne VFL. The scoring riot began about ten minutes into the game when Sam Weideman notched the first of four goals that could easily have been six or seven but for some uncharacteristic misses from close in. The Demon forward, spurned so far by the club’s AFL selectors, demonstrated a strong work rate, an example followed throughout the evening by his teammates. Indeed, time and again during the game, the skills and the drive to work hard and to team together were the factors that underlined the massive chasm between the two sides. There was some resistance in the third term when they finally scored a goal or two but in the end, the century plus winning margin was a fair indication of the difference between the teams. The football public is aware that the two clubs are at different stages in the development cycle but the game was not the best vehicle to showcase the VFL on prime time Thursday night national television. By quarter time with four goals to nil in the bag, two of them to Weideman, the game already looked over. The Demons increased the lead at every interval thereafter to 54, 62 and eventually 107 points at the end with Kade Chandler’s goal after the final siren. Coach Mark Corrigan was able to rotate his players on and off and over the ground at will. Majak Daw was impressive early in ruck and around the ground and came off early in the piece with what looked like a niggle. This gave rookie ruckman Aaron Bradtke more valuable time than usual to show his wares. He still has a lot to learn but he’s a tall unit and will get better with added experience and muscle on his frame. Tom Sparrow was very much in need of a good run and got it this week. The improving midfielder put together a career high 31 disposals in a best on ground performance but needs to work on his kicking for goal. James Harmes, on return from a hand injury, took a while to warm up but soon became a destructive force against his insipid Kangaroo counterparts. Small men Toby Bedford and Chandler thrilled the small crowd with their electric pace but face a daunting task breaking into the Demons’ AFL side given the form of its incumbent smalls. One half of the Casey line up was made up of the club’s VFL-listed players and they deserve great credit for their contribution to the cause. Skipper Mitch White was strong over the ground and chipped in with a couple of quick goals in succession to kick off the final term. Jimmy Munro was prolific with 23 touches and ten solid tackles. Twenty-year-old Zac Foot from the Sydney Swans was fast and clever and picked up three goals. He could easily be snapped up in the mid season draft. A number of the young Casey boys put in pleasing performances given that they had less ground time than their more experienced and seasoned teammates. The most pleasing aspect of the game would have been the fact that the team was able to play in the same style and fashion as the Demons’ AFL team and though the opposition never demanded it, they were able to play with intensity when required. That, and the fact that two young recruits in Jake Bowey and Fraser Rosman showed that they have talent and are coming along nicely. 2021 VFL Mens Casey Demons 4.6.30 8.9.57 11.13.79 19.17.131 North Melbourne VFL 0.2.2 0.3.3 2.5.17 3.6.24 Goals Casey Demons Weideman 4 Foot 3 Chandler Grey Harmes White 2 Bedford Machaya Munro Rosman North Melbourne VFL Gunther Polidoros Scott Best Casey Demons Sparrow Harmes Bedford Weideman Bowey Chandler North Melbourne VFL Gunther Roos Appleby W.

Quite a few games can go either way this week. Who are you tipping?

If they would have chosen $$$ over spectacle then they may as well just get rid of the ladder and play a round robin competition all year between the Collingwood, Carlton, Essendon, Richmond, Geelong, Adelaide & West Coast.
