Both matches are at Metricon . They need to give all facilities a thorough clean before the next 2 teams enter the ground. 

They always were at Metricon

The time of the Suns match was delayed to give them a Sunday afternoon TV game in place of ours.

TV rules..especially this season

ridiculous that they can't stream our practice match because of broadcast rights

    There is no form line so far this year. Most clubs don't seem to be able to come to play week to week or even quarter to quarter, and then you have WC sooking it up about the hubs.

    Let's wait for Port today who might be the only side to put in three strong performances.

    Collingwood not too far off.

    Everyone else has put in at least one sub-par performance. In a normal season, that would be a refreshing positive.

    I think our lapse against Carlton needs to be put into this perspective.

    Yes, after looking at regular upsets and clubs having good and bad quarters in a game I'm looking at the Carlton game a bit differently.

    Goodness, Crows need Ricciuto to put the boots back on.

    This season is mainly irrelevant for the power clubs. Their memberships are full, they get the TV money and the variable... crowd receipts is irrelevant this year (you can't make money on socially distanced crowds). One more loss for the Eagles or the Crows and they may as well mothball a few players for the season

    For minnows like us we need to sell the hope of next season but I suspect that come round 7or so we'll be packing our tents.

    The AFL will be loving this. Another leg up last year for the Suns, who have enjoyed 10 years of draft concessions. The talent was already there and a few other clubs had better claims to priority picks, but they could not risk their babies failing. I hate the expansion sides

    AFL should take away some draft picks from Gold Coast this year.

    Absolutely. Trading away their future mid round 1 pick now looks like smart move. Not sure what extra picks they have left but unless they fall off a cliff surely they would have to be rescinded.

    God Matt Rowell is an absolute gun.

    Great to see the crows are the basket case of the AFL. It’s great viewing.

    You're not doing it right, OX.  It needs to be:

    Gee Rowell is a gun.  I can't believe we didn't trade all of our picks this year and next to get pick one so we could draft him.  What a missed opportunity from us again.  

    On the other hand, the Crows are absolutely pathetic.  One goal to three quarter time against the reigning wooden spooners.

    Good, hopefully it lasts for a few seasons.

    Let’s not get too carried away with GC.

    They always start the season hot and then fall in a heap by round 8 as injuries and fatigue mount.

    They’ll probably get out of the bottom 4 for the first time in 6-7 years though.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
