Great to see the three teams that have won 9 of the last 10 flags in the top 4 again....

Ah yes. Another AFL triumph, the "equalization" plan

The top clubs get top fixturing to get top gates to buy top players from the feeder clubs.

    And the funniest thing to me is that it hasn't even been equal between those 3 clubs, as evidenced by the fact that Hawthorn are going for 4 on the trot.

    OMG those maggots.....how was that deliberate? What other option other than not to go for the bloody ball at all?

    Gift goal to reverse the momentum

    My finals moment so far. Rioli gets a tiny tap to the stomach and goes down whinging like a Colllingwood cheer squad member at the dentist.

    Cmon Geelong. Time to clip the wings off these whinging Hawks. Just get it done!

    This shepherding on the mark is just plain ugly.  And the umpires endlessly telling players to 'stay behind' but they blatantly get ignored.

    I'm barracking for the Cats, but that was as obvious a deliberate as you'll see. Poor play by Lonergan.

    Wow cracker last quarter coming up. I reckon if the umps said go for it there would be a massive all in brawl. 

    By the way Chip your mistake gave the cats momentum and they kicked the next 3.

    Officially over these two teams. Just don't care anymore!

    How come:

    Hawks always get away with encroaching on the mark?

    Mitchell only needs to kick 5-10 meters to a mark?

  • Quote

    Cats with the one point lead. Four minutes left.

    It's [censored] isn't it. Mitchell is the king of 10-15 pointless chip kicks. Meanwhile Bartel slides through 3 blokes and handballs perfectly while on his back. He's a tough champion footballer Bartel.

    That last possession from Bartell was brilliant

    Yes! Cats win! Thank god!

    Hopefully that's the end of the Hawks. Great to see them finally lose a close one. 

  • Quote

    Nobody deserved to lose really...I think he rushed it.

    Has there ever been a kick after the siren match you could have cared less about.....

    Yes i noticed that...

    Bittersweet. As soon I grin that Hawthorn lost, I quickly remember Geelong are through to a prelim. 

    Any of the Sydney, GWS, Doggies or Adelaide will do me.

    Smith smirking with his team mates before he kicked the ball, like it was a certainty, and then pumping his fists as soon as he kicked it....only to find out he missed and they lost.

    Fan-bloody-tastic.

    Couldn't have happened to a more arrogant team.

    Chew on that Hawks.

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • 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.
