Ok the Hawks rate and  we don't just look our game times and how often we figure on FTA.

yep....like newspapers the club is slowly dying OD.

We're there to make up the numbers these days.

Going to be hard times for a few clubs post 2021 and the power clubs will show their teeth. Kennett has already had a go.

 

Finally a watchable game... Carlton v Port thus far is a goal fest.

They had 4 a piece in the first quarter and were actually playing fast attacking football.

So is it safe to assume the norm has returned?

Carlton appear well Coached. Whether they win or lose today, they are playing well and continually finding loose men up forward. They appear to know exactly what they are doing and  are an improved side.

Hard to say this but Carlton have gone right past us as a football team since we towelled them up in the first quarter of round 2.

Smart recruiting and a coach that plays players to their strengths.

They've sped right right past us alright.

That was silly/selfish of Dixon.

Rushed his set shot because he was concerned about the ump sending him off for the blood rule.

 

Like the Geelong vs Carlton game.
Port should be up by 20.

 


Port after the siren.


Port to only win by 3 points ! 

What a crazy season so far !!

I still hate port Adelaide

Fun Fact. Essendon have four wins.  Three of them are against; Kangaroos (17th)  Swans (16th) and Freo (14th) and next week they play Adelaide (18th).

Meanwhile, Hawthorn, at 13th, is the lowest ranked team we've played against and next week we have Brisbane.

Our destinies are somewhat woven together because of the missed game, but it should be fun watching Essendon slide as the season goes ahead while we have a whole bunch of difficult teams we wont need to see again until finals.

Definitely looking forward the re-match, too.

If we're any good (today will tell us a bit about that), then I agree with you.

We'll still have games this year vs Adelaide, North, Sydney and Fremantle.

I hate the phrase "gone past us".

Interestingly, if we win today, we'll have as many wins as Carlton, with a game in hand, and if we win by roughly 46 points, we'll pass Carlton on the ladder (with that game in hand).

Yes, we could also lose and stay in the bottom 4, but the idea that Carlton has "gone right past us" is a bit silly IMO.

Nah! ?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

    The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

    Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

    Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

    For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
