    So this is what it’s like being an AFL love child club

    Rnd 11.  Friday night match

    Rnd 12. Friday night match

    Rnd 13. Monday QB holiday match

    Rnd 14. Bye

    Rnd 15. Saturday night match

    All matches on free to air, no Sunday games = More eyeballs watching us. For once we are actually giving our sponsors good value.

    So by Round 15 we'll have had 10 FTA games and only 4 Foxtel games.

    If I have a complaint, it's that only two of those 10 FTA games will have been Friday nights (and zero Thursday nights), only one of which was a home game and it will have been in Alice Springs.

    By comparison, to the same point of the year St Kilda will have had one Thursday night game and two Friday night games, and two of those as home games at Marvel.

    It's a very minor complaint TBH, given where we've come from. Plus further opportunities to come (albeit again mainly away games):

    1. Round 15 away to Essendon - they're playing on Sunday the previous week so would have to get them on a 5-day break to get a Friday night
    2. Round 16 home to GWS - not much competition that week for prime time (Geelong v Essendon?) so might get a Saturday night at best?
    3. Round 17 away to Port - has to be a good chance for a Friday night, or Thursday night if they're still happening that late in the season
    4. Round 18 home to Hawthorn - nope
    5. Round 19 away to GC - nope
    6. Round 20 home to the Dogs - another good chance
    7. Round 21 away to West Coast - possibly, but Perth games are so often on Sundays
    8. Round 22 home to Adelaide - nope
    9. Round 23 away to Geelong - will depend on ladder positioning going into that round.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
