Wasn't having a go Sue @McQueenĀ @Bobby McKenzieĀ @Ethan TremblayĀ can all tell you how bad the media are over here. They never say anything against the EaglesĀ 

The West Australian and Channel 7 WA are absolute cheerleaders and the continued worship for Cousins, Kerr etc is an embarrassmentĀ 

Absolutely. You can add Mainwaring to those names as well.Ā

    Happy to say I got the Liam Ryan call wrong, never thought he'd put the hard yards in to play consistent footy at this level

    Credit to him and the hardwork put in by Phil Narkle and Ryan

    Best half he has played. Good time to do it

    I know this may sound stupid but I never actually realised how good Nic Nat's ruck work is. His leap is brilliant and they look so much better when he is in the centre taking the ruck contest. I still think he doesn't do enough around the ground and could be more dominant.

    Hopefully west coast put there foot down this quarter and kick away. Smsh them and don't let essenscum back in it.Ā

    He pushed the boundaries in the off season and I thought there was another Sampi coming but after blowing off some steam he got right back into it, with some strong guidanceĀ 

    One reason why we should never let Nev Jetta leave the club

    West Coastā€™s small players have been superb tonight

    But now only 24 points.....

    Yes how ridiculous they used to have a charity match in honour of him. I'll leave it there because he has passed but a tainted man in many ways

    Shielā€™s kicking has let himĀ down tonight however his run and carry would be very handy.Ā

    Yep and remember Chad Fletcher basically flat lining I think in Vegas. That was swept under the carpet to. Sadly I fear Cousins will headĀ one way to.Ā 

    Anyway 1 more quarter and hopefully we see the bummers out. Stringer I know is an easy target but when he just stood there and waited for the ball to come to him instead of going for the mark in the goal square was funny.Ā

    That Flat lining was incredible. It would have been 5 x the story if It had not been in Perth

    My moneyā€™sĀ on him coming west and coaching FremantleĀ or if Longmuir gets the job, some otherĀ role at Fremantle. Heā€™s done at Essendon. I believe his wife and kids have already moved back here.Ā

    He is originally from East Fremantle i think, so it would make sense

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fieryĀ interaction between Max Gawn and Steven MayĀ at the end of the gameĀ was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourneā€™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 Kingā€™s Birthday.
