Around The Grounds - ROUND 23

Featured Replies

Just went the Saints and Brisbane game looked like being the worst TV spectacle of the year they open the roof at Etihad ensuring its impossible to watch.

 

 

I want Saints to smash Lions to stop Bombers getting first pick and PSD, especially as Woosha just said he wants O'Meara. Getting him for free would be sickening.

Membrey marks 15 out, with Saints firing and Nick gives a way a free, reversal and Lions go to other end and goal.

Would have ended up quarter 5 goals up and well on way.

Come on Saints, smash them.

Saint Nick with 11 marks in the second quarter!  What a player.

 

Blah, blah, blah St Kilda's improvement.

Their best player is still Riewoldt by a mile. Take him out and they'll lose 3-4 more games a year minimum.

Have a field day Nick, please! Kick ten goals!

Frankly if Leppa wants anything positive to eventuate for Queensland football, he should lose this match enough to secure the wooden spoon. It will be a total injustice if Essendon get pick 1.

Lions making it hard for themselves.

Could argue a winning culture is more important but that would require players to turn up for 22 weeks a year.

Would've been a shoe-in right now if not for the 1.2 to 4.7 final quarter yesterday. Woosha must have realised the implications of a win and too big of a percentage booster.

No mention of the 6.2 to 1.4 third term though?

Yeah, the quarter they made sure to address in the final quarter when they still had time.


Pretty sure if they wanted to guarantee the spoon they wouldn't have absolutely smashed them for a quarter when already 19 up.

saints putting the foot down.

What's the target from here?

 

Saints need three goals to zip from here. From there basically every Brissie goal needs two from the saints. Very much alive.

Brisbane look tired ;)

2 goals to zip from here would do it.

Don't puck this up for us Brisbane.........

Fitzy lining up for his second shot on goal in 5 minutes. First one a shanked behind. 2nd one a shanked goal :D

Don't see it happening really, no way Brisbane will stay scoreless, and the Saints won't be able to kick 2 for every Brisbane goal in a single quarter.

No need to feed Essendon the attention. Gold Coast will get a trade done with someone other than Essendon. Some of their fans are disgusting though " we can get Jaeger for free" when no other clubs went the grievance tribunal route.

Do I see Rockliff and Zorko limping.

Seems silly to keep them out there.

Brisbane are now last.

Haven't read the whole thread so may have been mentioned earlier. 

Fitzy gets a game for the Hawks today. 

Do you reckon he can top the "tunnel ball"?

Personally I think Jaeger told them he wants a trade to a certain top 4 club and that's why Gold Coast cracked it about him not being allowed to nominate his destination, because they'll probably only be able to secure two late first round picks.

They certainly wouldn't be behaving this way if he said he wants to go to Essendon, or was ever entertaining the notion.

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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.

    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.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
