If our 4-peat involves 3 interstate clubs, I'll reluctantly take it.

    Hawthorn won theirs while the rest of the comp was hobbled by the compromised draft with the introduction of both GWS and GC IMO.
    Meanwhile they cherry picked clubs filling their needs with player looking for "success". 
    Found themselves in the right place at the right time.

     

     

    Exactly.. they had an easy run more then anyone.

    Brisbane did it harder then both. Should have had 4 in a row had the AFL not [censored] them over with the travel.

    Their dynasty [censored] all over Hawthorn and Richmond.

    Honestly this game is so poorly skilled. I’m having PTSD of Melbourne pre 2018.

    Brisbane are the best team I’ve ever seen in my life. They were unbelievable. Every single line was full of absolute stars

    Essendon 2000 were incredible. (washes mouth out with turpentine.) Not the same star power as Brissie 01-03 but a near-perfect machine. Curse them.

    Nup given up again. Saints get the lead then in the blink of an eye they're 3 goals down again. 

    They got Melbourne’d 😁


    It makes me irrationally angry to watch De Goey playing football. This scum should be in jail.

    Melbourne Victory'ed? Melbourne Storm'ed? Please do not associated Coll... I can't type it out ... that club with the mighty Demons in any way shape or form!

    That "deliberate" OOB shows (like in round 23 2021) that umpires have zero understanding of the game. Why would they, and it bounced in an off break 4 or 5 times.

    I cannot with St Kilda. Their ball use makes me so angry.

    Essendon cheated the salary cap in 2000.

    That was actually déjà vu!

    Richo said almost the same thing (about trying to keep it in) re Gussy’s deliberate in round 23

    Honestly, can’t recall seeing a team so bad at executing a handball as this Saints team

    You don't remember the Dees handballing to stationary team mates for 15 years straight? And missing that target.

    Well, at least we should be able to beat one of these teams when we play them.

    Sorry, having flashbacks.

    God this is shocking viewing but strangely entertaining. It's good to be premiers.

    We were woeful at everything, but tonight Saints handballing really has been horrendous

    Saints lost it as much as Colonwood won it.  

    Not much to get excited about either way, IMVHO.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
