    As I  said....pathetic knee jerk reaction.

    After all, Lyons “shrewd tactic”backfired on him  

     

    A La the rushed behind deliberate rule, and the below the knees rule

    AFL not good at anticipating the unintended consequences

    Why somewhere as “civilized “ as Texas.  Why not Baghdad or Kabul or Aleppo?

    Have watched a soccer game in Baghdad. Can confirm the locals would explode watching an AFL game.

    There's a part of me which - if we win tomorrow - fears the E Coli Wobblers more than the Tigers. They gave us a bath on Queens Birthday and that man Cox looks onimous ( sic ), too onimous for my liking...

    The pies are playing above themselves tonight, hard to do that 2 weeks in a row as it takes a lot out of the team mentally and physically.  We have been consistent for the last 4 games.

    Don't think it's just the Tigers that are coming, coming, coming in that commentary box!

    Pies going cold? 

    20 hours of extra time would be good.

    Pretty soft high free for that goal.

    21 points the difference.

    I’m really torn with whom I want to win, I suppose I’m pretty impartial. But to see CollIngwood lose after being 53 points up would be pretty satisfying.

    And it'll take a fair bit out of the Tiges you'd imagine.

    "Cox, Cox, Cox"! Is Bruce auditioning for a commentary gig at next year's Mardi Gras? 

  • Quote

    Was getting excited at 21 points at the prospect of Collingwood losing from 53 points up, but then reality hit and the game's over now.

    A satisfying way to watch Richmond's hubris come crashing down, but I still cannot stand the concept of the 2018 Collingwood being in the Grand Final. It just feels wrong.

    • 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.
