Melbourne's Clint Bartram can accept a reprimand and 93.75 points towards his future record for making front-on contact with Bulldog Daniel Giansiracusa in the NAB Challenge match at Casey Fields on Saturday.

The incident drew 125 points after being assessed as negligent conduct (one point), low impact (one point) and high contact (two points). An early plea would reduce the penalty by 25 per cent to 93.75 points and a reprimand.

Good I think we really do need him in our team, he's no star but he is a good stopper and now that he has his fitness back I'm expecting him to have a year like he did in '06.

Based on my understanding of the rules as they stand at the moment, I think he can count himself lucky to get only a reprimand.

Of course, the AFL will probably change the rule again tomorrow and put him in Port Phillip Prison for a month.

who? Bartram is one our best IMHO. His intensity at the footy is unmatched, something the younger ones need to learn. I can see a long future for him at this club, he won't win a brownlow but I could certainly see him take home a bluey.

NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round
NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
