Ā 

Last week you nailed it.

I know its hard but Im not sure if we watched the same game.

Petty totally cleaned up.

And Trac saved the day.

And while bb didnt score after the first he kept competing often playing the role Tmac usually does up the ground.

Clarry: looks totally exhausted

Don’t Ā often disagree with you Joeboy but we did win by 7 goals. God help Adelaide if the team had played well.

Harmes cannot kick and is less than average handball, he does not deserve game

Give me life!

Harsh on Petty. I thought he was fantastic today

Particularly in 2nd half when they were closing the gap. He took several crucial marks, spoils, and kicked reliably.Ā

Bont had 31 touches in the loss against the Hawks. Can't say he had his usual influence but he might squeeze out a vote or two simply because he's 'The Bont'. Howe was a clear BOG standout from that match.Ā

I love Joeboys 3 word analysis and look forward to it every week.

If we do win the premiership I can't wait to see who he thinks played poorly.

Rivers - the new wheatley

Forgot about Wheaters.

They do have some similarities in playing style.

  • 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.Ā  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 fieryĀ interaction between Max Gawn and Steven MayĀ at the end of the gameĀ 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.
