No wonder the AFL don't ever send Hawthorn down there to play. They are an absolute embarrassment. 

I actually want this to be revisited after 2020, they can share it around but at least one of the "big clubs" should be going down there every year. And the cats should be forced to increase allocation to opposition fans/members by 3000-4000, perhaps make it their trade off as they seem keen on having more games there.

I wouldn't be against them hosting finals against Vic sides either but there should be a minimum allocation of 8000-10000 seats to away fans if it's a Victorian team.

    Despite the margin tonight's game was far better than last night's.

    If I had to pick a best quarter of the 8, I'd still take the rich v Coll last quarter for the contest.

    Not that I watched much of last night but it was refreshing to not hear Cameron Ling on the commentary team for a Geelong game. 

    I do feel a little for channel 7 - most of the best media guys choose Foxtel

    I didn't like it 'John', the only interest was getting the draw because neither side deserved 4 points.

    To be honest they didn't deserve 2 points.

    It was a yawn fest of defensive football with poor skills to match.

    You would have thought they were playing in a bog the way the last Q panned out.

    Every player in the same part of the ground and no one to kick to when they got the ball.

    Did I hear Jimmy Bartel in the commentary say that he met Rhys Stanley and his wife at the Moriac store this week, before their baby was born?.......covid lockdown rules?

    Instead we had to put up with Jobs4mates Watson that reads player stats and has nothing much tactically to add. The guy does zero footy media anywhere, but lands special comments on Friday footy? Laughable.

    There are "approved" locations they are allowed to be. No doubt that was swiftly added... ?

    it's arguably a breach... they are allowed out for shopping not to have  a chat at the supermarket. A nod in passing sure but not a chat.

    On the other hand when half the world is at the beach or Bunnings is it any wonder.

    The complete reversal of form by both teams from Round 1 was interesting.

    Patton looks like a player from a bygone era. Hope he shows his best but the modern game doesn't suit him.

    So far Geelong look the goods.

    Hawthorn look crap.

    Richmond haven't hit their straps yet.

    The pies continue to wobble.

    i dunno...

    cats got destroyed by gw$ in rd 1, poos&wees mangled the bears, richmond haven't lost a match for 12 calendar months, and the filth have lost to one 2019 grand finalist by 4 points and drew with the other in 2 out of their 3 most recent games

    i don't think you can read anything into this season yet...give it til about round 10 - if we get that far - and then we'll know where every team sits

    Wow just saw the scores. Adelaide are in a world of pain. That's just dominance by port and Im happy to see higher scores. Put that rubbish game on thursday night aside. 

    GC up by 26 against west coast at 1/2 time. at this point not sure WC like this hub business.

    GC are up by 26 at 3 QTR time.... They are well and truly under the skin of WC. Rowell is an absolute beast. 

    Loving seeing the Eagles flogs throw their heads around for free kicks and nothing coming

    Sickening that GC got a before r1 priority pick last year and a mid 1st this year. We are a far worse team.

    Surely they won't actually get it, if they keep this up. Still have Rankine sitting in the wings.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
