Pies look hungrier at the contest, maybe the Crows are flat track bullies.

 

Apparently Adelaide had a gale force wind that quarter as well... yikes

The pies have always been an excellent road team, seem to always do well over in Perth too

Wow, crows looking like the weaker of the two South Australian sides this season.

Just really not clicking.

Best captain in the league apparently...

Just noticed...wtf?

 

Fk me Crows look putrid, Pies look really good, clear game plan.

Grundy is a very good ruckman. Sloane looks injured. Walker is nowhere. 

Pies Stephenson looks a ripper.


Adelaide have been hopeless tonight. Definitely won’t be making another grand final this year with this lack of intensity or gameplan.

Sloane can’t handle a tag. Crows missing their best midfielder Matt Crouch.

Just as a final aside from last week - I note our friend Clown No 26 has been rewarded with another game in the top flight. West Coast vs Gold Coast. Nice work Umpires Dept.

Good news, as long as the clown isn’t doing our game

We have Razor instead.

This game looks like a top 8 side vs a bottom 10 side.

The roles are not what anyone expected, though.

Classic Collingwood though. Every year under Buckley they win surprise games against quality sides but then back them up with losses to rubbish sides. Last year they beat Sydney in Sydney, then lost to St Kilda, then they beat Geelong, then lost to Carlton, then they beat Fremantle in Perth then lost four straight games.

If they win this there's every chance they lose to Essendon on Anzac Day.

 

They lost this one at the selection table. Walker, Fogarty, Lynch, Jenkins, Jacobs, Talia, Hartigan, Kelly, Doedee. Wayyyy too tall for a wet weather game. Only need 5 of those playing. Jacobs, 2  tall forwards and 2 tall mobile backs.

Also shows how hard it is to replace your best players. Both Crouches out and they are poo.

We had no Gawn, Viney, Hogan & Jones for large portions of last season and it was never mentioned by the 'experts'.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
