I'll be very interested to see how the Dogs go this afternoon/evening. If they go back to pantsing the opposition and winning by 10 goals of free flowing hollywood handball, I'll think less of them than if they're challenged and can actually grind out a victory when it's not all going their way.

    How nice it is too watch other teams and think, Gee these teams are rubbish.

    Watching a bit of Carlton v WC. Gee these teams are rubbish.

    Out of interest were they mixing in a bit of "canned crowd noise" on Friday night.

    The background murmuring etc just sounded fake at times.

    The scoring reactions sounded accurate.

    This game looks like it's being played in slow motion.

    Just what I was about to note 

    and no one seems to be energetic or enjoying themselves apart from Eddie Betts

    Carlton has a couple of players that are going to be coach killers imo- Paddy Dow and Zac Fisher. Maybe add Jack Martin and Zac Williams. The Zac Williams trade was insane. Please play him in the midfield when we meet again.

    I love the 3 rule changes that have opened the game up. 6-6-6 formation, 15m back from kick ins, and stationary man on the mark. General play is so much better to watch.

    But some of the basic kicking skills in many games are absolute rubbish. Freo v anyone, Pies v Crows yesterday, Eagles v Blues today. Really bad watching sub standard skills.

    Liam Ryan has made this match watchable.

    West Coast are unfit. Carlton, bad as they are, are still a chance in this game.

    I am a fan of having good commentators. Where they are doesn't really bother me.

    This game is sooooo dull. I switched over to watch a show about people with OCD. Far more interesting. 
     

    Looking forward to Freo letting me down as per usual, but will be barracking hard for them.

    The best part of the Carlton v West Coast telecast has been the ads for Four N’ Twenty Pies. 

    I could handle one right now WJ.

    This game is the old fashioned curtain raiser before the big one. The jump in quality will be like in the old days.

    Are there crowd number restrictions at SCG or is that all up there who have any interest?

    IF crowd number restrictions then why crowd those in the one spot?

    Carlton have no system.

    This is something that mystify's me as well. They were all in one area at our game on Friday night.

    Only conclusion, it is about the cost and not the risk.

    this is carlton's third rebuild since the late 90s? first malthouse top up era, then judd era, now cripps era

    reminds me of the mfc era when the watts / $cully / trengove era didn't work and we had to go back and develop again with salem / trac / brayshaw / oliver

    they should let cripps walk as a free agent and get the first round pick they [censored] away on saad back

    • 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?
