    Could be. Could be just coincidence too. Victim of circumstances.

    I always thought Bob Murphy would hold up for his career. Sometimes circumstances can be cruel.

    Genetics? Don't forget the differences between family members. I just need to look at my beloved and her sister.  Thank goodness for the differences otherwise I would have been committed many years ago just to escape.

    Bieber's cousin is my third favourite artist. Can you confirm if this is actually true or just a joke?

    Would have been more excited if Bieber had a genetic predisposition to an exploding head.

    Prehab needed.

    Hopefully after Petracca we've got all our boys doing the exercises he did post knee now whilst they are healthy.

    That said, the Dogs have had a heap of knee injuries to both senior and reserves players. I think they've got 4 out now and Libba just back.

    Harsh game footy. I feel like every game you play at any level is a chance to do a shoulder, knee or ankle and you're a lucky player at any level if you play a decent amount of games and don't do one of those injuries needing a long lay off.

    There are Petraccas everywhere.

    Here's a recent picture of a scoreboard from an Under 12 basketball game in my grandson's league.

    No 5 looked like he could play a little bit but unlike another Petracca who carries the number #5, this one was wearing proper footwear and wasn't trying to slam dunk.

    When CP5 did his knee a year or so ago, I thought I read that he got advice from his brother about rehab as his  brother had done one too.

    Can't find the story online after a lazy 2 minute search so I gave up.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
