Start time as scheduled, sorry mate.

But Roosy said to say hi.

Cheers anyway mate. He's a good sort.
 

Let's not skirt around this. If treating it as a Rd 1 game and looking to win, with the side the Dogs are putting out, we should belt them.

Damn you.

Watts and Michie our subs. Must be easing Watts back into the team.


Stretch, Pedersen and Fitzy not paying.
 

Wallis, Boyd & picken out on top of murphy and libba... God help us if we don't win this with a near full strength side

With the players they have out already I just don't get why they would rest others. Surely a club like the Dogs would want to get some momentum going into the season...? They aren't in a position to gamble.


They either don't rate us or they want to avoid any injuries at all costs. Sub VFL team they're putting out.

Yey, there is going to be a membership and merchandise stand at the Creswucj Rd end of the ground

Total waste of time & money - if anybody's serious about membership they can turn up tomorrow!!!

(Is there an emoticon for "tongue in cheek"??)

I think the Libba injury has caused major jitters. They simply can't afford another injury to a key player. They couldn't afford it BEFORE Libba went down. They will cop a pounding if it means some run in the legs of their youngsters and no serious injuries.

it's the NAB Challenge, it is Roos' choice to put out a near full strength team, not the other way around, same as Freo did last week as well

Yeah that's a fair point. I would like to see us play a close to full strength Dogs side, as we face the Bombers next week who aren't AFL standard either, but these are prep games after all. Another run for us, regardless of the opposition, can only be a good thing for us.

Sort of generic funky type thing, mine is hiccupping unfortunately

Yeah, by tremendous I actually meant horrendous.

can't get it to stream on my pc. I guess i'll have to listen to pickering and hutchison on sen. i hate listening to these fools!


We're already ahead in the banner contest this year, doggies didn't bother with one today.

commentators - hutchy and pickering, good grief - just announced that hogan is out?

edit: they've just said he's in. i was sure i'd seen him in the warm up too.

as i said...good grief.

The commentry is already hilarious and the game hasn't even started.

They have no idea that it's being streamed online. And they're saying Hogan isn't out there, yet he's slotting goals.

... They just corrected it, managed to spot him.

 

It's not exactly stunning HD. Which pixel is Hogan?

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
