Grimes the sub

I'll never understand this... Grimes was one of the BOG last weekend, equal high in disposals and kicked a goal yet named sub? He played better than most of the team last weekend and the club is treating him like s**t. For his sake, I hope he finds a new club who respects him because Roo's clearly wants him out.

Had it on a string mate.

ha ha MCQUEEN you ledgend
 

How many goals do you reckon we will concede in the first quarter?

The usual 8

Agree with this. Selection this year and subs have been unfathomable at times.


There's zero chance we'll be within 10 goals. I just hope Hogan kicks a bag.

such a pessimist... I have no doubt we will be right up there with them on the score board... right up to the time that someone bounce the ball and starts the game.

The clubs strategy with the sub mystifies me. Thank God it will be gone next year by all accounts. It's a blight on the competition.

Combined score the last 3 weeks in the 1st quarter we are down 21 goals to 3

8.


I'm no fan of Riley but if a player is to be the sub then surely he is better suited than Grimes.

I would think that Roos will be looking for Riley to make a significant impact early in the game

Still playing Supers and Master grades.

Go for the Interstate Carnival rep team. Pretty easy to get a gig if you have the time. It's in Tassy this year in October. There are big benches which explains how I get a game. That and the fact that there are not that many idiots over 55 still running around. I think they call us legends, my wife has another name for us? Who do you play for in WA. We are Coburg, not great in the youngsters by our team went okay.

Much prefer this red alternative strip.


The dread has settled right in now.

Thats why beer was invented. Sweet liquor eases the pain.

Lets be honest... Its going to be very ugly..

I'll try to be positive, this game has an air of that Collingwood game.

We'll know in the first 10 minutes which team has showed up, if any.

Why am I watching this?


Apparently, according to Paul's guru, if we all have positive thoughts we will romp this one in.

 

Dwayne to commentate. Super.

You beat me to it. We always seem to draw the short straw with him.

3 minutess in and no Freo goal. Going to be close!

  • 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.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    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.
