I agreed at the start of the year to go to the game at Manuka tonight with a Hawks mate.

    Tonight will be interesting. No idea why you would fixture a friday night game in canberra in the middle of august. 

    I hope really hope the dogs can knock off the bummers.

    These 2 teams should be wearing a Clash Jumper, if such things are needed. 

    But of course the aren’t of course, because the AFL is a joke

    Very different sort of snow at Metricon on the Gold Coast :)

    What Einstein would schedule a night game in Canberra in August?

    The buck should surely stop with the CEO.

    Shame Melbourne isn't playing.

    Could have gone to the footy and snow at the same time.

    Up close the jumpers are readily distinguishable but I agree on the longer shots there is a blending of the various shades of orange.

    Cannot understand the childish love of AFL clubs for the jumpers. They must be the only sport that has not moved on to having clear clash strips.

    Hell I saw Liverpool playing recently in a blue strip and no one batted an eyelid.

    That's the joke on twitter about Melbourne should be up there playing with the snow and all and the other jokes are about Mumford and white stuff.

    I live in the damn place.  Glad I chickened out on going to Manuka tonight.  There's enough snow in my back yard!

    GW$ looking almost Melbournian tonight.  No urgency and just structureless 

    Not sure how they will find the goals.

    Surely Leon Cameron is on thin ice. For all of their concessions and talent, GWS don’t look like going close to a flag anytime soon.

    Gee wiz these Giants are going to go nowhere in the finals. If I was their coach I would tear strips off a number of them but then you aren’t allowed to do that with these young ones!

    One does not simply schedule an extended outdoor activity in Canberra, at night, in August.

    The average overnight temperature is 2 degrees, and it typically gets close to that range within a few hours of the sun going down.

    Rain is a one in three chance on any given day for the month, higher in early August. The soil is always damp so the wind is always biting, and that wind comes directly off the highlands, continuously, for the whole month.

     

    I genuinely miss it.

    But since the AFL is supposed to serve sane/normal people, this fixture is just incredibly stupid.

    Where is the million dollar forward Cameron? Hardly had a touch, incredible bunch of soft talent that can only perform when it suits them it seems. Just a bit too cold it seems.

    It is...or was. ...a Winter game ? Yeah !!

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
