Looks like Port are finding some form.

Also Wines - holy [censored] what a quarter so far.

13 touches, 4 clearances (3 CC), 4 inside 50s.

Ridiculous.

For a preview of Saturday afternoon's slogfest, tune into Seven tonight. Going to need to contest the hell of that ball and run like hell if we want to get the 4 points.

The entire Seven commentary team give me the shits.

Bruce and his rhetorical questions.

BT and his, frankly, bizarre comments.

Richo can't say anything controversial to save himself.

Watson with his incapacity to be objective.

Lingy and his capacity to state the bleeding obvious.

Darcy, like a politician, says a lot but doesn't say anything.

Bruce Mc Aveney gives you the [censored], doesn't he?

He is ssspecial!! Varcoe's brilliant tap back from the boundary for a goal hardly got a mention from anyone and someone had to tell Bruce who it was but can you imagine the dripping accolades if it had been Cyril!

Bloody Taylor Adams. Animal. Kneed ?Westhoff several times in the face whilst on the ground.

We will find out just how sacrosanct the MRP finds the head I guess.

low impact , in play, unintentional, accidental, $ 300 fine ( I'll be amazed if the finding is much different )

That's a really, really low dog act from Adams IMO.

Otherwise, ripping game. Not sure how to read it - Port's been awful the last month so it's a bit worrying for Collingwood to drop this game. They're now 8-6 and sliding, with West Coast next week. Could be 8-7 heading into a game at Etihad against the Dogs, which could then mean 8-8 when they face us...

We will find out this week at the MRP whether they regard the head as sacrosanct are if they are as corrupt as they sometimes appear.

Taylor Adams [allegedly] DELIBERATELY kneed an opponent - I think Westhoff - in the face (part of HEAD) several times.

Should be 4 or 5 weeks but because he didn't kill or concussion him I guess they will say Ko case to answer of some piddling (for them) fine

They have a choice : mark their ground and stamp this thuggery out, now, or say it it ok ,or not too bad, and it will continue until there is a serious injury.

Dog of an act with potential for extremely serious injury.

He kneed him on the temporal bone, the most fragile and vulnerable part of the skull. It doesn't take much to cause a fracture and bleeding internally. It's the area that cricketers helmets are designed to most protect. That sort of action on the football field is totally unacceptable regardless of the consequences

Yep, $100 fine.

Some amazing comments tonight. Loved the one about how Buckley is always so calm and has his emotions so under control in the coaches box, then in the next Q bucks smashes the phone into the desk, not for the first time.

...and for Bruce the field seems to be full of barometers.

BT was also in love with the "large particles... of liquid."

Thankfully it wasn't mentioned in the same sentence as "The Package."

...and what was that free kick for...out on the full BT. Watch the game idiot.

Idiot 2, Richo...they've got a couple of key players off the ground at the moment BT, Wines and Wingard. Little does he realise is that Wingard is taking a free kick for out on the full.

But only because the package wasn't playing

Heard it so many times last week

Awful

You're not wrong Mono.

Was disgusted with what I saw tonight. Adams dropped the knee on Westhoff's face at least 4 times, the last with some force.

He should go straight to the tribunal, get a week for each attempt and 2 or 3 for the last attempt, 5 or 6 weeks all up. Sure it sounds harsh, but this sort of BS has no place in our game and he must be made an example of.

Lazy game for Wines.

34 disposals, 9 clearances, 10 tackles, 5 i50.
:(

Mmm better swap him for Toumpas in my Supercoach team!

Any chance the media will finaly jump off the Collingwood bandwagon now? they havent won for a month. they look promising for the future but will have no impact on the flag race this year

hope we smash em in a few weeks. should have salem and Kent back by then

You don't like Bruce, do you?

He drives us crazy, doesn't he?

He'd be better off retiring, wouldn't he?

Can't stop using 'off a step', can he?

Gee he's a gooood commentator, isn't he?

Doesn't mind players 'caressing the ball', does he?

Make you sick of listening to the footy, couldn't it?

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
