"... The Roos spearhead limped off with help from trainers after he landed awkwardly after being tackled by Cats defender Mark Blicavs.

Brown had his left knee heavily strapped and despite initial reports he would play on he has been ruled out of the remainder of the match. ..."

    it looked pretty bad for sideshow bob

    he's having a rotten contract year, clearly not an mfc player

    Christian Petracca and a couple of first round draft picks should change that...

    Syd and the filth is even worse than what I saw last night. Adelaide play the filth next so maybe that might be their sole win for the year.

    There are some trash teams this year, and thankfully we haven’t played many of them yet

    I haven't seen a second of the game, but the stats show Collingwood is +68 in disposals, +8 free kicks, +22 in CPs, +8 in clearances and +24 in inside 50s, for a three point lead.

    Sydney's had 15 inside 50s for 5.1.

    Are the Pies trying to model themselves on us?

    Game on. What happened to Treloar?

    The umpiring this year has been absolutely terrible. Holding the ball doesn’t exist and infringements are just ignored one after the other,  until a soft free is paid resulting in a goal to the more popular team. You could be forgiven for thinking they are actually cheating.

    Not just Treloar, but Quaynor and Will Hoskin-Elliott were both off injured as well.  Quaynor looks like a break in the lower leg, Hoskin-Elliot was a leg injury (knee?) and missed Treloar's, so no idea what happened to him.

    Done something to his hammy, they are going to have a very weak side against us. 

    Like they did a couple of years ago and belted us, to stop us making the finals.

    Watched the second half with my magnificent spouse.

    Me:  "Ugh, so many of these Collingwood players look like little [blank]s."

    Her:  "Oh, don't be so harsh, they're not Hawthorn."

    She also lip-synced Buckley talking to the 3/4 time huddle, including "You're not Coles, you're not Woolies."  Her theory being that the Collingwood players had those range-activated thingies that make your shopping trolley stop when you get too far away from their start point.

    Some people just really commit to embracing Australian culture, y'know?  Sigh, she even really, really hates West Coast supporters. 

    ?

    I heard Eddie say Sidebottom's partner was expecting (in the context of players returning to Melbourne for births and then having to do another 2 weeks quarantine) but unsure if she is in Qld or Vic currently. Pendles, Treloar, Sidebottom and Degoey potentially not playing from their midfield. We won't deserve finals if we can't take care of that.

    Dam sydney had there chances in that final term. Papley missed shots he'd usually kick and when they were 2 points down 3 swans players just handballed to each other instead of 1 choosing to take shot when they were all open. Dam that would have been great to see them knocked off, but in fairness the goal by Daicos was awesome. 

    The saints suns game is really enjoyable so far. Not fussed who wins.

    I'm biased because I absolutely detest St Kilda, but I reckon they're the worst top 2 side I've ever seen.

    They rely on goals out the back, extreme accuracy (which history says doesn't last) and unforced errors from their opponents.

    Sure, credit to them for winning and likely going 7-3 after tonight, but I reckon they're going to get found out later in the year.

    Memo to Dees brains trust. 
     

    1- Saints forward strategy. 2 Talls. 4 smalls. Kick to forward 25 spot and rove the pack. Butler. Hind. Kent. Gresham. 
     

    2- Saints mids. Use their pace and run. Hill. Jones. Billings. Hold them up and slow down the supply. 
     

    Probably doesn’t matter. Membrey is poor against most clubs but kicks 4-5 against Dees (usually on oscar McDonald)

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
