    Hope players are watching this game to remind them of how they were playing in the 11 games they won with defensive pressure fwd of centre and fwds defending causing turnovers.

    Our run home : 

    Bombers MCG

    Giants MCG

    PORT AO

    Hawks MCG

    Suns MS

    Dogs MCG

    Eagles OS 

    Crows MCG

    Cats GMHBA

    4 tough games against top 8 sides still to come, I forgot we played the dogs again.

    In short I would love a guaranteed top 2 spot locked away before rd 23.

    Let’s focus on one week at time, all games will be tough regardless of ladder position as both the crows& pies proved to be

    Yes and no, last weeks game Cats v Dogs would’ve taken a lot out of both sides. I think Eagles will roll the Dogs.

    Cats recently rolled Port away.

    Unbelievable home team favouritism by umps AGAIN. 

    I hate the cats but the lions are getting the absolute run from the maggots.  
     

    Cats get it at their home. Eagles are definitely another team that gets the extra benefit at home from the umps. 

    Did you watch the second quarter?

    Yep Scott will complain that people are booing Selwood, that they have to play away from Geelong and that quarters are just too long to get the best out of a team of players eligible for the AZ.

    I like seeing girlong lose like that. They do not have a good midfield.

    Don’t know what to take from that game. 

    Geelong were so bad they deserved to lose by 60+. Don’t be fooled by stats. They were smashed anywhere it mattered with a near full strength side. 

    Brisbane wasn’t able to get that sort of transition going against us. Our forward line on paper is inferior to Geelong’s but we gave way more of a contest in our forward 50 than theirs did tonight and that makes a huge difference. 

    That sort of form from Brisbane is scary though. I do not want to draw them in a final at the Gabba in week 1. They only have two more top 8 sides left this year and one is West Coast at the Gabba. They may feasibly only lose once more. Pressure is right on.

    Drives me mental this agenda to change the length of the game. OTC etc all need to STFU, is as annoying as hell when they put the centre circle that crueled White's leap at the centre bounce.

    As much as I loathe Hipwood - we should have picked him instead of Weideman….just saying.

    Yeah, hope the Cats get up tonight to ensure interstate sides stay away from the top 2.

    Which means they’ll lose.

    I don’t get this. I’d far rather play Brisbane in the finals than Geelong, even away.

    Do we think clubs do? I think in some aspects they would but in others I have no doubt they’d be looking ahead, would be foolish not too.

    Nope. And neither does Collingwood, given he's fit but not playing.

    Actually, that's not correct:

    Look, I'm with you on the uncomfortable part of the loss. The Collingwood side who played yesterday was not the 2018 GF team or the dominant 2018-20 Pies side. We can't keep losing games to weak sides.

    Meantime, Collingwood interim coach Robert Harvey has included Mason Cox to the Pies' side for the first time since round four to face Fremantle on Saturday.

    You mean our s*** percentage of 132??? I totally agree we need to bury some teams (would love nothing more than to start this week) but we hardly have a bad percentage. 

    We’re in a BIT of a precarious position when it comes to top 4 positions, losing to the pies brought us back to the pack a little. We need to consolidate our position this week.

    Never forget Cox has single-handedly won two finals for Collingwood – the 2018 prelim final against Richmond and the 2020 elimination final against West Coast.

    really feel like watching footy but 8 v 13th is hardly getting me going. Another wet slog of the tigers winning by 30 pts

    Saints have Marshall and a couple others back, any chance they could win?  they have copped it in the media

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
