Scott just verballed the umpire as he walked off the ground. You might as well talk to the cat. You'll get no joy talking to any umpire.

    I noticed that too. He had nothing to complain about but that’s pretty hard for a Scott.

    Not entirely related to this thread but does anyone know if the Cats v Dees game next week will be on Free-to-air TV? Or will we non-FOXTEL people get stuck with Brisbane v Adelaide? 

    Live on 7mate according to my Foxtel app.

    He can't help himself. Perpetual whinger.

    Hawkins looks like he is playing Melbourne. Dominating.

    Has been in a purple patch of form of late. Bit of a worry for us in a fortnight.

    Scott obviously has a great influence over Hawkins  - he has become one of the games greatest whingers.  

    Ablett has them both covered 'mono'...in his whole career I honestly think he believes not one free paid against him was there, nor anytime he's near the ball that he didn't deserve one.

    ...plus he's now become a real team player in his later years at Geelong and believes the same above applies to all his teammates.

    Selwood should get a week for a deliberate trip on Milera and not play us next week.  But its Selwood so they wont even look at it.

    Not looking past the Bulldogs but beating the Cats down at Geelong next week to move two games clear of them and make their path to  the finals very hard would be so, so sweet.

    Scott, Dangerflog Ablett, Selwood.....  they are so easy to hate.

    Geelongs bottom 10 are shthouse. Contain a few and smash them next week. 

    It is time.

    If We beat Dogs and go down to the cattery and knock em off we would have finished them off for the season.

    FYI (Kardinia Park): I live 20km from this dump and refuse to attend our games there (every bloody year) on principal.

    I have Platinum/Legends mship which gets me into all MCG and Etihad games.

    But not K Park.

    I go to all other Vic games and at least one interstate games each year. 

    Our cheer squad get shafted - placed on a flank as seats behind the northern goal (non Cats cheer squad end) fetch a premium.

    If you roll up and expect to get $25:GA you may be disappointed. Even though it won't be sold out they'll tell you that you need to pay $35 min. for a seat.

    They treat opposition supporters with utter contempt.

    Furthermore, night games can be dangerous for visiting supporters. Their supporters have spent all arvo in the pubs.

    I urge all MFC suuporters to boycott this game.

    Seriously why aren't geelong coming under more scrutiny?  They could possibly be out of the 8 by the weekend.  This is a team that got ablett back at the start of the year.  Yes they don't really have a ruckman but they have a pretty good midfield and forward line.  I would think if they miss finals its a massive fail. Although funny if they do miss. Ablett would feel like he is back at the gold coast

    I urge all MFC supporters to attend this game, as it's a massively important game in our season.

    And I think we can handle a few old ducks knitting scarves, even if they have been drinking all arvo.

    Not that he'd be a big out - but Tex's hit on Tuohy should be 2 weeks and therefore misses our game?

    He is lucky that he came back on, but had only eyes for the ball and still made high contact.

    Haha. Reminded me of days at Vic park and an old Pies fan Mrs Johnson who would sit on the fence in the outer and try to hit us over the head with her umbrella as we put the banners up. After a couple of years we worked out that the girls would do that part of the ground (and she allowed them to put the banner up - not the guys) as long as she could put her Pie's tea towel over our banner.

    At least 2 should be 3 eyes of the ball and elbow to the head. So what if Zach tuoy played out the game it was intentional high impact in my book it floored him.

    Yes, but Tuohy coming back on means he passed a concussion test. So whilst it was high contact, its not considered as bad.

    Tex is insufferable - so would prefer him to be out long enough for Adelaide to just miss finals. Means he can enjoy all the "success" Lever gave up.

    Carlton by 27 tonight. 4 score reviews in which 2 will be incorrect. Charlie Curnow to dominate and kick 7. 

    If you own a rent-a-crowd business, you’ve done well this week.

    • 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.
