    Bruise free football - from both sides. Pretty sad that these two teams were afforded the respect of a Trumpeter and the Last Post. Not much intensity out there.

    I think Rowe is about to have a delayed concussion....

    I'm in Perth as you are and in peak hour traffic morning and night I pass a work ute painted red and blue with a logo in the rear window, just thought it may be you as there aren't a lot of us in Perth.

    But they have SOS recruiting. They've got no hope. He's useless.

    In fairness to SOS he brought over Marchbank Plowman Pickett from GWS who all look like will be quality players in the future.

    His draft picks in Petrevski Seton, Curnow, Fisher, Weitering, Silvagni Williamson will also add depth and class to their side over the next couple of years. They still have alot of holes on their list but they have a good base to build on.

    I have a serious hate for Carlscum more then anyone but i think their future does look bright... unfortunately

    They're at least 5 years away from challenging. As soon as Murphy and Simpson retire and Gibbs nicks off to Adelaide, they will get pummelled regularly. 

    Curnow looks okay, but I wonder about his size for a KPF. Marchbank looks like he reads the play well. Pickett and Petrevski-Seton look nippy. Weitering is class, but is being played forward, because they're ordinary forward.

    If they end up being another 3-5 years from even challenging for finals, Cripps will leave and then they're [censored].

    I hope that happens. Hate Carlton with a passion.

    I get so depressed watching Ollie Wines

    exactly what we still lack

    Grunt. 

    We don't lack grunt... I know you like complaining, mate, but we've got plenty of Wines' type. We need more diversity in our midfield makeup if anything.

    Nah mate, not me. I also pass a few vehicles with MFC rego plates or membership stickers on the rear window.

    I usually just apply the small MFC member sticker to the rear of my vehicle. The rest of the stickers that come in the membership pack I save up and strategically place on my mates cars and wait to see how long it takes them to notice. You might've spotted one of my Freo mates car. ?

    He's a good player, having a great season. Limited decision maker, but tough around the contest.

    We don't lack grunt. It was just an opportunity to imply we stuffed up the Wines v Toumpas draft again. Let it go.

    F$5& Toumpas A F! I am watching tonights games. 

    Wines is the sort of players who wouldn't have let last weeks 3rd Q happen

    WE STILL LACK GRUNT

    No. We lack leadership. We have plenty of grunt.

    Leadership and Grunt can be the same thing. Playing hard through fatigue

    Disagree, mate, but each to their own.

    As for Carlton, they're playing a side as young as our blokes, but are nowhere. It shows the gulf between our list and Carlton's and we're not even challenging for the top 4. I'll say it again. Carlton are in big trouble.

    They have no forwards. Malthouse cleared them out

     

    fantastic

    I have just turned it on

    OMG the inventors of tanking seem to be perfecting the art form

    CFC may have been fooled by the success Bolton had with a list that maybe even Neeld could have had success with

    To those who have had the courage to watch it all, are CFC that awful or are Port good, or third option, neither?

    And they haven't built a midfield. Should have traded Gibbs last year and they should be blooding midfielders now around Murphy and Cripps.

    It's more that he had trade value. What will they get for him this year now?

    • 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.
