I can't believe BT just said Boyd is growing into a star...... he is a [censored]

He gives Dwayne a run for his money as one of the more inane and infuriatingly stupid commentators in the AFL media landscape. Just an absolute spud.

    The Bulldogs are total-team ... our players can learn a lot from how they go about it AF.   Nothing like learning from the best.

    Absolutely, mate. The best teams often push the rules to their absolute limit, but I don't like it when they cross the line and the Bulldogs for two years (like Hawthorn - ie S Mitchell) have got away with throwing the ball, more often than not.

    Yep ... and it's up to the 'custodians' to knock what you're saying* on the head ... they're one step behind but it could be argued that they're certainly aware of the issue and don't care.

    If the Bulldogs were a 5 goal better side than us last year, I wonder where we stand this year.

    I have a funny old feeling we've really closed the gap on Sydney, but time will tell, as they tend to start the season slowly and hit form near the back end.

    Franklin sublime

    You can tell the swans are missing a few but their depth is exactly why they're consistently a top 2-3 team.

    Scintillating football from the Swans. Just wow. Franklin is still a star. He's great to watch when he's not playing the MFC.

    Umpiring tonight has been bleedin’ awful.

    What's the idea behind the rule? Stop rushing behinds, he had plenty of time and space to make another decision.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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.
