Power chant has gone up. 27 points down against Essendon. No shortage of floggery.

    Gee Port look so slow and Essendon just look so fast. They are just free everywhere. Hopefully Hinkley sorts them out at 1/4 time. We need port to win for 2 reasons. Keeps essendon from passing us and port can knock off the tigs 4th spot. 

    ....think the drugs are starting to wear off..

    I'm not sure what I want to see more: Essendon go on with it and annihilate Port, or see Essendon squander such a big quarter time lead and choke.  Shame the two are mutually exclusive.

    A draw?

    That ruck nomination [censored] is so stupid. Especially when umpires aren't  known for common sense.

    No question here, Essendon loss would be superb.

    You've talked me into it.  I think we're going to be disappointed though.

    A Collingwood loss on Monday will make up for it. If the Bombres are romping it in I'll switch over...

    Mad Max II was on at 9:30 last night, much better than Crows/Saints, the Feral Kid reminds me of my 7yo son.

    The only thing I love about these nights (prefer port to lose than Essendon) - is that it really shows up team deficiencies that can be exploited. I am seriously looking forward to the next half of the season and when Hogan and Gawn come in, and Smith et al develop and knock on the door...we can match any team..except Cyborg GWS

    Who was the Port player putting his hands up for a free instead of running on to the ball and into the goals? I'd be spitting it I saw an MFC jumper doing that.

    Gray.

    Yep - it's not possible for Port to lose by enough to get their % down near ours unfortunately, already did the calc.  Such a topsy turvey team, they don't look good enough to have dealt out massive beltings.

    Port's percentage boosting wins:
    Freo by 89 points
    Carlton by 90 points
    Brisbane by 83 points
    Gold Coast by 72 points

    Strong argument for being a team of downhill skiiers there I think.

    Yep. Had a funny feeling after listening to Hinkley on 3AW earlier raving about how underrated their players were and how improved his coaching was this year.

    Melbourne consistently struggles to put away BOG ordinary teams, so fortunately the last label you can give us is downhill skiers (unlike Port, Adelaide, West Coast, etc.)

    • 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.
