Tom Mitchell 54 disposals. Great to see Buckley put a hard tag on him to try and limit his impact.

That’s Buckley’s problem never learns, he did that last year to the pies

    I just enjoyed watching the filth lose.

    If Michael Christian is a true Collingwood man, he’ll give Cox 12 weeks.

    Buckley up in the coaches box looked like he was seeing Aussie rules for the first time.

    Did he make a move all night? He seems to look aghast in the box, picks up the phone and threatens to make a phone call and then goes back to being aghast again. How we lost to them in Round 23 I'll never know.

    I actually think their list has somehow gotten worse over the off season.

    Maybe because they have no forward structure without Blair and co? I'd bite the bullet and play a small quick forwardline if I was Buckley - the Richmond blueprint.

    Their ball use was terrible, but they had absolutely no forward structure all night. The fact that Reid and Cox couldn't have marked a beach ball tonight, only exacerbated their ineffectiveness forward of centre.

    Collingwood are woeful. They are boring, their list sucks, they have no forward firepower.

    The commentary team of Brayshaw/Richo/Darcy isn't too bad.

    Or perhaps that's by way of comparison to BT (big turd), Bwuce, Basil, Hamish? 

    Brayshaw is terrible. "Collingwood haven't done much wrong tonight", he says as they're 5 goals down. He's got no idea. He should stick to commentating the Mercantile Mutual Cup.

    Why don’t teams put a hard tag on Mitchell? They seem happy to let him get his usual 45 odd disposals every game. 

    Some coaches are starting to put a tagger on some of these big ball winners Earl.  It still astounds me how the likes of Heppel, Sam Mitchell (more so in his prime) and others are able to run around into space, get on the end of receives and just waltz around causing mayhem a lot of the time under little or no pressure.

    No doubt there are some that are harder to tag than others but it's still a lost art.  Might be slowly starting to see a bit of a renaissance in the last year or so (depending on the coach).

    Plough always harps on about this and how coaches are sometimes digging their team's grave by not applying a tagging run with player on some of the more damaging ball getters.

    Maybe it's the camera angle but he cuts a lonely figure sitting up there in the box.

    ...and they say misery loves company.

    I like Buckley (can't stand his team) but his body language has loser written all over it.

    I thought it was an entertaining game, great start to the season with 2 really good games. (2nd quarter may have been a bit sloppy, I was building  Lego with my kids but had it on in the background  and noticed the scoreboard wasn't ticking over)

    Can't wait for Sunday!

    I think my comment was made some time in the second quarter or at half time (can’t recall). The first half was absolute shite! Admittedly it did improve in the second half.

    they've got arguably the greatest coach the game has ever had

    learned everything he knows about coaching at the demons! (and everything he knew about being a ruthless thug at north?)

    i can't see many oppo coaching departments letting tom mitchell run around like that for the rest of the year tho

    THE only positive I see with our Rd 23 loss was that we’re going to see 2 more years of this rabble under Buckley.

    I have a die hard Collingwood colleague at work who regrets beating Melbourne in Rd 23.

    She was happy for 5 minuets after the game. Now she’s in misery for a further 2 years.

    Ha ha, yes, the only silver lining to come from that debacle was that Eddie cracked a [censored] and reappointed Nathan.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
