So Wona managed to stay in? I watched the replay and although he was lacking in fitness, he certainly hasn't lost his touch from what I saw. I'm hoping he's fitter for the run he had last week and can show us all what he's made of. Perhaps we'll even see a frog's leap.

No late changes to either side

and Gysberts WILL start in the centre, from the OPENING BOUNCE!

Big challenge for the young lad..

Its live here in perth, so i'll post if anything major happens, for all you poor buggers who have to wait an hour!

A fairly long interview with bails on the boundry before the 1st bounce, so keep an eye out for that too..

1st bounce.. GYSBERTS on ABLETT!! wow...

Oh-oh for our backline today too! Killed twice from the centre already,

cats 2nd goal a minute in!

Bad start - nScully + Trengove our midfield. The rest pretenders
 

i saw someone on here say "that side has alot of last year about it"..

3.2.20 to sweet f.a

we cant get hands on ball.. sides shouldn't bother going down to the cattery


ablett 7 touches already.. had 40 last time we played.. wouldnt mind someone playing a bit tighter on the kids (sc wise as well)

One of the boys should wear him like a glove.

Started off very poorly. But we've evened out a bit now. Just sounds like for every good thing we do, Geelong do 3.

"Melbourne just getting to terms with the tempo".

Bartrams turnover was costly.

Gys looks ok. Our skills are not in the same league as Geelongs.


jetta!!.. were settling into the game ok.. gysberts 5 touches early.. if he can get this hands on the ball vs geelong in geelong then he as a very healthy future - me likey likey

Would have been good if Scully and Trengove were out there - oh well.

I was right about the 22 point margin in my preview but I forgot to say halfway through the first quarter.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
