     couple of upsets are on the cards

    I reckon the dogs will get up tonight.

    Carlton a real chance against GWS

    and the bombers are now without McGrath, Francis, Shiel, Hurley, Caldwell. but still should beat the Hawks

    First two agree, and i also agree with the other, but add Hawks could have their team of the Century playing TWSNBN and they wouldn't be "allowed" to win

    Bulldogs have to prove they can take on powerful clubs in hostile environments. Big game for them tonight.

    I Know its counterintuitive but huge Demonland support needed tonight for the Dogs. If they beat the cats then our earlier win against Dogs becomes a sort or 8 point game for the cats loss in chasing us, and sets up the end of year clash also as a true 8 point game for us.  I know it helps the dogs get closer to the Dees , but gives good separation for both of us from 3rd spot, then keeping at least second is in our own hands if we can beat the Power in a few weeks.

    Absolutely agree. It's totally irrelevant having separation from 1st to second but hugely important to have separation from third.

    Tipping 3 boil-overs this week in Dogs to beat Geelong, Carlton to beat GWS and Hawthorn to beat Essendon.

    Be fascinating to see how much ‘noise of affirmation’ 7,000 people can bring in Geelong, and the impact it has on the men in green.

    Also, I hate Geelong.

    How TF do Geelong keep staying top after 16 years?? They are Manchester Utd of the AFL

    Carey reckons Selwood is up there with the best captains of all time. My bollocks! He is a great player no doubt but how many flags has he won as captain?? Zero

    he walked into one of the most talented lists in history.

    This game is a challenge.

    Cats win puts us back on top but my wrath towards geelong has me confused.

    The ...cats...have won ninety out of their last 100 games at the cattery. Wow.

    But maybe going back to second place is what our team needs after most of them stank it up big time v the pies.

    But the cats with their firepower are a huge threat to the flag and we have shown we are not so beatable.

    Mmmmm.

    Hope to see a good game tonight. Gee conditions will be nice and cold sitting there in the crowd. 

    Hope the hawks can beat the bummers, giants blues will be interesting.

    Anyone know how many AFL teams train on the ground they play home games on?

    I’m guessing…

    Geelong
    Brisbane
    Suns
    GWS
    Eagles?
    Swans?

    Who am I missing?

    All this talk of protecting the head - the commentators seem to praise Selwood for “an ear massage”.

    So the VIC government are paranoid about having crowds at games. And when they finally do allow crowds they put 3,500 people on each wing with absolutely no social distancing.

    Makes perfect sense.

    Like everything we hear  “based on best medical science” - please explain. 
    Could easily have twice (or 3x)  the number with distancing.  But that would be far too logical and liberating.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
