Port changing into there prison bar jumpers to sing the song is pure genius. They better not get any fine for that. 

Cop that AFL, pies & Eddie

I wonder if that puts them in breach of their contract?  Part of the deal for coming into the AFL was that they would leave the ‘iconic’ black and white stripes of their SANFL days behind them.  Collingwood had the AFL rights to this, and Port signed off on it to gain entry.  The Pies have every right to enforce their contract, and this ‘show’ really is poor form on their part. What did it prove?  The Crows were manufactured so there is no traditional SA rivalry before the AFL entry of either team, so the prison bars are meaningless in this context.

Imagine if The Lions wanted to be called the gorillas when they played us because they were called that in 1939?  Some things make no sense.

    I note that pox Kane Cornes suggested that a later tackle on Lycett should have been violent in retribution ‘enforced’, but how stupid? You want to give a brain injury to a guy because he gave someone else a brain injury?

    Speaking of brain injuries, were they serious about Boxing match between Cornes and Brown?

    Interesting to see how Brisbane goes. They are going for five wins in a row after losing their first 3. Looks like they will be a serious contender to challenge us.

    My eyes are starting to bleed. Goalless and worst quarter of footy for the year.

    Hawks had 127 disposals that Q for 8 inside 50’s and zero goals. Has to be a record

    Unbelievable. They've done it again. 

    Why are the umps wearing light blue when the Eagles are playing in predominately blue. 

    FMD. 

    Ridiculous isn't it? It would literally take 15 minutes for someone to whack together a matrix of what colours the umpires should wear in each combination of teams to avoid clashes. 

    Or they could always just wear that green uniform they have, seeing as there aren't any clubs with a green uniform. 

    This seems like the easiest problem ever to solve.

    It’s staggering. 
     

    On another note if Clarkson coaches Hawthorn to another premiership he’s going to be a very long term coach because they are miles off contending again.

    Quietly cheering for the Blues (yuk), two games clear if they win, plus it might attract a few of them to attend next week.

    Got to be a couple of different factors at play. COVID concerns for older patrons, ticketing issues for some, no/less walk up general admin, less neutral supporters going  & perhaps people now prefer to watch on TV.

    Carlscum are playing well today. 
    They will be no pushover next week. 
    no esy games…

    They kick big scores but conversely give up big scores. Lot of the matches they win are shootouts. 

    If we’re strong in defence we should outscore them. 

    Having said that I’m still worried they’ll beat us.

    That was fun catching up with my family who are mostly Hawks supporters and watching the Hawks vs WC game on TV with them.

    We should win, but once again it won’t be an easy game. 
    players should not be “Rested” All hands on Deck

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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.
