At least the commentary keeps me well informed on the game situation like a few minutes back when a Geelong point 'kept Carlton in with sniff'. They were four goals down and had kicked two for the entire game ffs.

It’s the behinds per second rule.

    Dockers did a demolition job on the Hawks....surely, surely, the boys can switch on from the first bounce for a percentage boost.

    We seem to get teams coming back from a poor result e.g. GWS.

    Looking at the bears forward line they could really do some damage against the saints.

    Great result for Saints tho. Hope they win but I’m not stupid enough to think they will. I’m backing Brisbane to not drop a game for the rest of the H&A season. Their draw is laughable.

    Possible ACL to Hipwood. Awful for Brisbane, but also good news for any football sides who are hoping to compete against Brisbane this year for a Premiership (I hear this may include Melbourne).

    Yes I am a terrible person.

    The standard of games are really crappy again. So much for high scoring games. They are long gone. 

    Maybe SHocking can drop in another dozen rules changes in as he heads down to Kardinia Park.

    You’re only saying what everyone else is thinking.

    When I said you’re only saying what everyone is thinking, I meant about Hipwood’s ACL, not about you being a terrible person. Just wanted to make that clear. I’m sure you’re a very nice person. ?

    Hipwood looks bad. Ice on the knee on the bench. 

    Goal kicking is so bad in the AFL right now. Just atrocious.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • 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.
