happy listening to Daisy on the coverage.   Love to see the blues get up.   Getting sick of the niknat fawning at the moment by commentators.

Glad someone else is sick of the praise around niknat. Yeah he’s been good with hit outs but gets nothing of the ball around the ground. I’d take gawn every day of the week. 

 

Carlton have one bullet proof player, who umpires love even more than WC players..WC should still win.

West Coast are playing like they just had to show up for the points. They are paying the price for it so will wait and see what happens after 1/2 time.

Trouble is, they never really pay the price. I actually struggle watching games in the West because they get such a great run. I.e.

  1. the holding the ball decision on Seeton cost a goal
  2. the Darling 'dive' cost a goal

So whilst Carlton are 13 or so points ahead, it's not a reflection


Umpiring has been shocking with the htb rulings during the baggers v weagles game. Great to see umpiring standards haven’t changed (then miraculously get better during finals)

So true...

As I'm watching, I'm convinced that if they play the GF in Perth it's handing West Coke the flag

Its just bamboozling this season. 

Rewarding players for standing off and waiting to tackle the player having a crack at the ball. Then pin the ball to them.

The amount of times its the tackler(s) who are holding and dragging the ball in and then getting rewarded is sickening.

It does nothing to speed the game up.

Eagles have a solid lead today in the Free Kick count - who would have thought

Wonder what the season tally will look like with 85% home games...??

So now WC is up by 11 points with at least 2 goals that were dead set wrong. A game in the balance is probably no longer.

Better than playing a bunch of thugs(mark 2) in Port's territory...

They're paying $5 for the flag. Probably easy money if it's a home granny.

Not sure I agree there Willmoy

 

Cripps is crying out for a rest. Must be carrying a few niggles. They’d benefit a lot more from him being fit than struggling through each game

West Coast have been woeful throughout the game but they put on a show for about five minutes and suddenly lead by 11 points. Reminiscent of the last five minutes of the first quarter of round 1.

They are good at that, but it is a trait of a quality team.

They could realistcially have experimented with putting him at full forward.  A bit less of a bashing for him, and Carlton are bereft, bereft I tells ya, due to injured to forwards. 

I thought Carlton had flown past us and are closer to a flag? ?

Injury fecalised their season.  Won't know where they really are until next year. but I expect us to be playing them in finals in 2021.

 

Remaining Round 11 Games:

  • Tonight:  Cats vs Saints and Dockers vs Hawks
  • Tuesday night:  Crows vs Pies
  • Wednesday night:  Suns vs Ess

We are 9th on the ladder.  Have bolded the teams I would like to see lose to max our chances of overtaking them or be further ahead of them to make the 8. 

Then we play Pies, Bulldogs and probably Ess (in Alice, a real Home game).  All immensely winnable games.

Dare I dream that after round 14 we are 8/5 ??

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
