    I remember TItus O'Reilly talking about on his podcast how GWS were often the butt of his jokes (saying they only had two supporters) because he would constantly get heckled on twitter by GWS supporters who said it wasn't true.  The only problem was that it was always the same two supporters... so in some ways it reinforced his point!

     

    This game though I'm a little nervous for - surely at some point in the year things will click for GWS (even if its only a game or two).  We don't have a good record at Manuka and these are the games (after a week of the media singing our praises) that we have a history of dropping.

    I was under the impression that the Rooty Hill RSL never closed. It had to stay open to ensure there was still somewhere for people to punch on once the curfew was imposed on the inner city.

    Anyway, in tribute to the game being up in the village in the hills we should really be referring to the mighty, mighty Canberra Hellenic Club.

    Don't laugh too heartily - I made the mistake of flicking through a Sydney paper in a cafe the other day and sure enough GWS had been "lucky to still be close in the game against St Kilda, courtesy of some generosity from the referees."

    Can we replace Cameron with Bellamy.

    I read somewhere that the AFL are considering moving a bunch of Collingwood supporters to Western Sydney and thus improving the IQ of both places. (an oldie but a goody)

    I think it's disrespectful not to appreciate the effort that the paper went to to translate the English language into the Sydney language.

    Although the AFL using NRL referees would go a long way towards explaining the quality of umpiring decisions...

  • Quote

    NRL refs have been pretty good so far this year. Certainly less [censored] decisions in 3 rounds than 1 game at Geelong.

  • Quote

    Why do I get the feeling that the few supporters GWS have will be using this as LOL material should they roll us on the weekend?

  • Quote

    Half a dozen good players, a few quality kids and that’s it. Looking at their 22, GWS should be bottom 6 this year. The guts have been ripped outta them.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
