Stating the obvious here, but it shows just how half arshed the NAB challenge is. No one went near Cockatoo in the NAB, now he has no idea what he's gotten himself into.

I'm finding myself barracking hard for the Hawks and Chip here, I feel dirty. But Chip is forgiven. Best of luck.

    Yeah I don't have an ounce of respect for Clark. Just another Borderline playing the sympathy card.

    Looks like Clark's depression is spreading throughout the Geelong ranks.

    Both the Scott brothers teams are getting absolutely towelled up round one!

    Obviously it's only Round 1 so I could well be wrong, but I've always looked forward to seeing how Chris Scott would go once he had to develop his own side and not rely so much on what was in place before him. No coach will ever come into a coaching gig like he did with a club still at the peak or their powers.

    This is just one game but they don't look all that flash.

    Glad our boys are there with Roos. The Hawks are giving a masterclass in delivery by foot and running to make space. Incredible.

    Happy Easter, Scott brothers.

    It hasn't kept rolling. It's rolled and stalled several times. It's hardly news that they're the best side of the current era.

    Flags in every decade since the 60's

    I would call that continuous success!!

    I wasn't impressed with Clark much in the first quarter (when the contest was on). Thought he was sluggish and had no second efforts whatsoever. If he'd done that in Melbourne colours we'd be fuming at him.

    Hard to blame him since then though, Geelong's been awful and Hawthorn's been, predictably, flawless. Good on Hawthorn for what they've done since 2004, but at some point the competition needs them to slide back to the pack and it's not happening.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      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?

    • 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.
