Port, Swans and Lions all have difficult games this weekend. GWS and Essendon in the mix for the 8 so have everything to play for while the Hawks in Tassie won't be easy for the Lions and particularly post the Clarko announcement

Us to win and those 3 teams to lose would make a perfect weekend.

And the cherry on top would be North beating Geelong in Tassie. Very unlikely but you never know.

Can see one of Port or Sydney getting done but not confident. Brisbane will simply beat Hawthorn. We’re the only top 6 club that’s battling to beat a bottom side this late in the season.

North’s outs this week will preclude them from being largely competitive against Geelong.

    i'm not discounting the hawks. they've been decent in patches this year (as we know only too well)

    Typical fkking Cats. If north haD Cunnington and Zurharr I reckon they would win this. But Geelong will scrape in like usual

    Ump just missed a clear 50 to North. Would have been a goal and 6 point difference.

    Larkey clearly marks in the goal square. Not paid. Would have a 6 point game

    Umps did well to see cats home. Again.

    And people think the umps don't impact results and ladder positions by horrid decisions or non-decisions. It cannot be clearer.

    What just happened in the Collingwood goalsquare in the marking contest? Looked like Josh Kennedy just crumpled a West Coast teammate and left them struggling for breath on the ground and just walked off casually without interest or concern.

    Meanwhile, is Alistair Clarkson such a great coach that two different teams have both found form just on the possibility that he might coach them? :D

    On your later statement - not even slightly.

    There is such marginal difference between all teams - do we  not know this by now?

    I'm being a smart [censored] here - but I see it Monty Python style

    "Ooooh, the greatest coach of a generation has just being sacked - let's all play well"

    "Hup hup hup, everyone, let's finally show Clarko, what we can do with this list profile'

    'Yes, we wanted that ba$tard Buckley gone - but why did those Hawks want that ba$tard Clarkson gone?"

    Play the tape back from 7m to go on the second quarter.

    Nic Naitanui runs TOWARDS the player with the mark, from behind and then alongside, clearly within a few meters, the umpire sees it and can be heard shouting 'Nic, Nic' but Naitanui makes no effort to move on or deviate path. Clearly not in pursuit of any other opponent.

    Was it a 50m penalty?

    Was it ####

    Typical [censored] west coast , putting in a shocker again in Victoria. No doubt if we play them over there at that snake pit on Monday week they’ll be world beaters.

    Gee people go on about our consistency. West coast are horrible. They have a guy playing his 300th and they play like that. It's half time and the game is over. 

    So we will get west coast back next week on there home ground and we all know we will get a different west coast.

    Liam Ryan will take mark of the year again sitting on Max Gawn’s head

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
