Adelaide will probably ask for a priority pick this year and probably get one knowing the AFL.

Well if they go through the season without a win you could kind of understand it.

We will get there.  Our season isn't defined by one game like this.

Yeah probably but I would love to see the Crows experience a few years of absolute garbage before they get any help.

    Yes it does, I still think he has tidied up a bit with Clarskon's coaching.

    But your thoughts please, the game is so micro managed now, that anyone choosing to take the game on and making a boo boo, is super exposed with the media making a meal of it, I actually think it takes a fair bit of courage to not be a conservative down the line defender,  it is one of the things I like about our footy and dislike the way the game becomes all about the percentages.

    I wouldn’t disagree at all that the game has become over structured and managed with percentages etc. Frost ball is an exciting but for winning games it just didn’t seem to come off enough for me, I always had my heart in my mouth when he had the ball. 

    On tonight’s game, Dunn’s haircut is the worst seen in the AFL for years. Absolutely awful. 

    Also welcome back Lynden!

    Collingwood have needed an armchair ride from the umps and have had less scoring shots than Adelaide.

    We simply must beat them on Saturday.

    Who will the ins be for Collingwood on Saturday? They have been poor tonight, big chance for us to notch another confidence building win on Saturday.

    We will slaughter Collingwood even with a few better players coming back. 


    Wow. I just saw Dunny’s Mullet

    That is a Shocker!!

     

    So Filth...

    Darcy Moore, Ben Reid and probably Pendlebury. Hopefully Pendles decides he needs another week of rest. Either way I think we should go in favourites, and this is a massive opportunity for us.

    Makes the man bun look like a model of restraint.

    Moore and Pendlebury are good ins, I hope they play Reid, put a fork in him cos he’s cooked.

    pendlebury is 50:50

    I would still have Dunn’s haircut before I had a man-bun. Dylan Shiel’s man-bun is the most disgusting thing I’ve ever seen.

    -Grundy looks tired and not impacting much apart from winning the hitouts, Gawn could outrun him off his feet

    It looked as if Grundy was being managed as he was off the ground a lot more than usual.

    Can you elaborate ?

    Leaving their tired old patter aside it does little more that skim the surface of the game for me. There used to be a show called On The Mark that followed 360 and I thought the girls on it were really good at guiding their guests through some sensitive topics. Then again maybe it just seemed that way after an hour of listening to Robbo.

    I have heard treloar and Qwaynor definitely out, not sure on H-E.

    Didn't Hoskin do a hamy against Sydney? I hope they rush players in under done.

    I would like to wipe that smug look off that Taylor Adams' noggin would absolutely love it come Saturday that skidmark. 

    We should beat the filth easily. However we are talking Melbourne.?

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
