    When you actually look at the ten matches the Pies have won, you quickly realise they're really nothing special.

    Honestly I care who we beat when we win, the more games we win the better our opportunity to ensure a finals berth.  It also builds belief in the playing group and helps build consistent structures as you can control games and learn to continually enforce them.

    A win is a win...

    Uuggghhh the Collingwood media circle jerk this week will be unbearable 

    I've decided I'm going to enjoy the commentary on Flagpies this week. It's still clear that Richmond are the best team, and- on our day if all goes really well- I believe we can beat them.

    Dees- if we can just get to the bottom half of top four- we may be blessed with finals in Victoria.

    Long way to go yet- 8 more home and away games. IT IS SO LOVELY TO BE EXPERIENCING SOME HOPE!!

    GO DEES

    Well bee, IF and a big IF our guys put their minds to it and don't get ahead of themselves, we have a huge percentage opportunity over the next few weeks.

    Damn shame we didn’t turn up against them. We still had our fair share of sceptics throughout our winning streak though. 

    We beat no one because we made them look like no one. 

    After Pies just beat Carlton it was “ More dangerous than Richmond”. After beating Suns “ Flagpies? Ready to overtake Richmond”. 

    Hoping we get the last laugh over them.

    A strange feeling today,  first time ever wanting the Bombers to win. And will be hoping they win next week too.

    Stuff Essendon, I hope they lose by 100.

    I don’t worry about how opposition games affect the MFC. As long as we keep winning, the rest will take care of itself.

    We've tread on this banana peel before. Let's just win against St Kilda before the sky punching.

    Self praise = faint praise and all that but I could see this debacle coming.

    GWS just jumped 4 spots on the ladder (passing us, Geelong, North and Hawthorn).

    Essendon and Adelaide in 11th and 12th are only one win out of the 8 (and only one win behind us). 

    This is an incredibly even season and our losses to Geelong, Port and St Kilda will cost us our finals spot.

    Player sizes with some winning Clubs at this time of the year are certainly noticeable, even with the old blokes. Ah well, good luck with that.

    Watching Brisbane play it’s amazing what happens when u lower ur eyes when kicking in side 50. 

    We r so stupid when we bomb it long but yet we keep doing it. 

    Fmd.

    Watching some of these bottom 4 teams just shows what happens when you bring intent!  We are still short on intent, killer mentality and effort.  Damn indictment on this group who can do much better.

    Just heard a little kid calling up and sobbing on radio, these are the things that get lost, while the media always looks for the negative stories, there's 1000's of good ones that get hidden away. Great career, super talent and thanks for the memories.

    Cant blame him really,.  Hes done it all, 4 flags. He misses Darwin.

    Why play a few more years and risk more injuries or concussion?

    I think more players will start to retire early.

    Massive blow for the Hawks, only 28!

    A terrific player, obviously a solid family man too

    not too many players play 25 games in their first season after getting drafted!

    • 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.
