I hate the filth and like the hawks they will go out in strait sets. Wet coke will thrash them. The only advantage they have is Grundy.

    Bringing in three players whom I imagine would be quite underdone fitness-wise seems like a huge risk. As per my previous post I think West Coast will win, and also agree it will be by a lot.

    I have to barrack for Richmond. It is hard

    Yes it is hard to want either to win. If we happen to win I would rather play the Tigers as I just know the Hawks would stitch us up as they nearly always do. 

    As usual the Hawks go into a final series with zero injuries to their top 30 players, except for Cyril non football related absence. Many experts apparently were not surprised at Howe’s late inclusion, forget Achilles soreness, more tactics.

    They are in finals year after year but just about always have a full list to chose from come the pointy end of the season. Good luck to them but why do we manage to loose players on a regular basis season on season.

    Richmond are miles better than Hawthorn. Ripe for the picking the hawks will be next week.

    Already can see Richmond make the hawks pay for mistakes whilst the hawks aren't really lowering the eyes

    Very hot game ATM, tackle count must be enormous.

    Tiger supporters just like West Coast, want a free kick every time there's a contest.

    FreekickHawthorn alive and well I see.

    Whoops the umpires have intervened big time. 50 meters for a little push in the back but not for a punch while Vlaustin is lying on the ground. Then Roughy drops the ball in a tackle but gets a free for holding. Two goals gratis.

    Hawks have been good, whether they can keep it up is another question.

    So incorrect disposal is a rule?

    Not if you are Roughead apparently

    easier to envisage Hawthorn going out in straight sets than the Tiges so am hoping for a Tiger victory tonight....

    With lots of injuries and reports for both sides!

    Hope the hawks in tonight. Im looking forward to this game tonight and seeing what plan Clarko can come up with. 

    If they are playing both Treloar and Goldsack then good luck. Treloar I get bringing him back but gee Goldsack is a risk. only 6 months after a knee re construction. Anyway I hope the pies lose.

    Free kicks just about even but it helps when you get them inside 50, especially when you dropped the ball in a tackle and another dodgey 50m penalty for a little push that did not impede the player.

    As long as they’re consistent, some them are very blatant.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
