Watched for 5 minutes and saw two clear 50's not paid to the Lions and every possible free paid to the dons, switched over to the saints game.

    WOW. Tackles:  BL = 6.  EFC = 9 to Qtr time. 

    The average for a game is 15-18 per quarter by each team!  Both BL and EFC will struggle big time against a really competitive team. 

    Really slow ball movement by both teams.  Again both will struggle big time against a fast running team.

    Unless they improve their competitiveness and ball movement both will spend the year in the bottom half of the ladder. :rolleyes:

    Ridiculously early, but Hawks to miss the 8

    Have a predict the ladder comp I've been in the last 2 years, really enjoyable thing to try and predict a week before round 1 starts. I had Hawks in 10th.... I had GWS and Swans 1 and 2 though..

    I would say Canberra has far better opportunity to develop grass roots support than Western Sydney.  Better go for modest success than going for the big lottery win.  The AFL is going to keep gifting premierships to those northern clubs for decades. That is going to eventually kill the game. 

    Adc, there was talk that the ACT Brumbies were going to get the chop from the the Super Rugby Comp. One of the best teams in the Comp for many a year. Not sure ACT can support too many pro teams.

    Lions look so much better under fagan will be a long haul but some hope now.

    The St Kilda pressure is good, but West Coast have been pathetic in patches. Just shows that any side is beatable when the pressure is turned up.

    Fark me they didn't pay multiple examples of encroaching within 10m today and they pay one in the WCE where a saints players was running to the bench on a diagonal away from the WCE who had the free but nope 50m.. WCE goal.

    Montgana has stood the test of time and still playing good footy.

    Should have folded having brought the game into disrepute as they did.

    Ablett on 16 possies. Very quiet night. 

    Well, they don't have the bigger deal with the front of jumper, so settle down.

    Yes, true. 

    Bucks is no Japanese sunset, either.

    Someone needs to tell the AFL that they can't overturn goals in telecast games if everyone at home and at the ground CAN'T see the touch. They just overturned that goal and showed nothing to show why - as it didn't show conclusive footage to overturn the goal. If I was a St Kilda official I'd be asking for that footage.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
