Lions by 7 points 20 mins gone in 2nd quarter

Lions by 70 points at 3/4 time ?

    I really didn't think we'd be passing anyone on percentage this season, but the Saints look like they have decided to dangle that particular carrot in front of us.

    Compared to their early season run, it would seem that it is their defensive side which is really falling away.

    Scores against the Saints

    Rounds 1 to 5  - 84, 65, 71, 69, 55 = 68.8

    Since round 6 - 97, 114, 88, 112, 55 (Blues), 139, 76 = 97.3

    And tonight's running tally of 113 with 20 minutes to go.

    Richo should probably start updating his resume, methinks. 

    You're just saying that because he has had a longer tenure already than any St Kilda coach except Allan Jeans.

    Fun fact - even if Richardson coaches out the full season, finishing with an entire season longer in charge than Thomas or Lyon, he will still have coached fewer games than either of them!

    Knowing our luck, we’ll play them after the bye next year and they’ll break that hoodoo against us.

    That was a bog ordinary Pies vs Bulldogs game.

    So frustrating that clubs playing poorly are doing enough to rack up the wins:  WCE, Pies, Port, Crows, Lions haven't set the world on fire but there they are at the top of the tree. 

    It was really a year for the taking.  Will be hard to watch an average team take out the premiership.

    David King's interesting insight into how-port-adelaide-picked-apart-geelongs-game-plan

    "...Geelong’s modus operandi had been for all the forwards to stay on the ground, with the exception of the marking target...the Cats’ smalls such as Gary Ablett and Gryan Miers were setting up around bigger marking targets like Tom Hawkins as if they were attending a stoppage...“We saw on the weekend Ken Hinkley say to his defenders, ‘one-on-one, no one leaves their man. You’re responsible to a role, you’ll stay on the ground and we’ll trust the guy in the contest".  

    Simple roles with simple instructions.  Hinkley caught the cats napping.

    We like to play 'our brand' but even when it works it often is not enough.  There is a lot to be said for different tactics to counter opp strengths.  Hinkley has been very good at that this year.  Dismantled us, the cats and will do it to other unsuspecting coaches this year.

    This year 1 vs 1 defence has become the winning formula.  We still play mostly a zone/team defence.  Who knows how long it can continue as opps know how to counter that game plan. 

    Looking fwd to see how we adjust our defence plan and any tricks Goodwin finds to dismantle other team's game plans.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
