The round starts early this week with Port vs Bulldogs tonight at Adelaide Oval.

Some important games this weekend:

- Top 4 play each other - Big 8 point games.  Potential Home Final at stake:

  • 3rd vs 1st:  Swans vs Eagles
  • 4th vs 2nd:  Geelong vs Tigers.

- Top 8 aspirants:

  • 11th vs 10th:  Hawks vs Crows

The other two games are Freo vs Carlton and GCS vs Saints.  Freo to take care of Carlton who seem happy to get the wooden spoon again (and the draft spoils that go with it).  And GCS and Saints will be some sort of scraggy arm wrestle.

 

 

Gold Coast vs. St. Kilda could be one of the worst spectacles ever put on in an AFL game.

Hoping for a miracle and the Doggies causing an upset but I can't see it happening.

I find my level of interest in football overall diminishes when we have a bye. And I have zero interest in games on a Thursday (other than a Thursday night before a public holiday on a Friday). Is it just me?

 

 

What is the Bradbury plan here

I think I would prefer WCE to do over the Eagles to give us a chance at top 4. Eagles pretty much unassailable for top 2 anyway.

Cats/Tigers I am in two minds. Erring for Tigers. They're a game ahead anyway?

Crows/Hawks, want to lose whomever has the easiest run home and I think it's the Hawks?

I like the idea of Thursday night games more than I actually like watching them.

Yep. I'd watch footy on any night of the week. Thursday's are almost like a surprise because I'm not expecting it. And every couple of hours I think 'Hey, there's footy on tonight!'

Will be interested to watch port but the conditions might be bad. Basically a poor game though I think.

 

Practicing throwing all of 2016 has really cost the Bulldogs footskills. 

Dogs look like a VFL side ATM 


The Dogs are a joke at the moment.  Port could theoretically be 8 goals up already if Marshall hasn't missed a few easy ones.  How the hell they won a flag in 2016 is beyond me.

Not sure which is worse, the Dogs or the Umpires.

This is god awful. Bevo has done more ks than half the players.

Loving the look of the Doggies.  Really giving Port  a big test before we play them next week.  And I was worried they'd run the Power into red hot form.... so silly!

So who do we put on Wines next week? 

The games this weekend on free to air arent to bad. Tonights is ok, tomorrow night Sydney v WC will be a cracker and Saturday night Hawthorn Adelaide will be interesting and its a shame we don't get Geelong Richmond on sunday arvo.

Lee Harvey Oswald...

thoroughly bored sh!tless watching this good awful game tonight... 

only watching as we play port next week. half time may just put me to bed

I see nothing about port that worries me. The umpiring in the 1st quarter in favour of port was ridiculous. Dixon is an absolute [censored]


Well....Doggies applied better pressure in their forward half that quarter and caused some turnovers from Port defenders. Port did get a couple of cheap goals against the grain though.

We also have to come up against Lindsay Thomas next week as well. Great. 

Isn't that the bloke who's been racking up posessions in the walpeup 2nds?

  • 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.
