I dunno. On paper they are so talented but I don’t rate their coach. They’ve had a gun team for so long but something is just NQR. 

100% the coach IMO.

Anyone else watch/remember the 'Making Their Mark' doco series? I think Dimma is a bit of a kn*b, but the difference between his team meetings and the Cameron ones were stark. Every Richmond player knew the answers to Dimma's questions, every hand up, positive and proactive, then cut to Cameron's ones and it was just him abusing a room full of young men all with their heads down and not talking.

    100% agreed. Cameron and GWS came out of that doco looking far worse than all others. It basically showed Cameron as a negative abusive coach who didn’t have buy in from his players. The way he handled Coniglio and leadership was poor. He didn’t have strong strategies in place and understanding from his players. It was shocking to see. As long as he’s coach of GWS, they’re going nowhere. He’s a poor coach and if they had someone like Goodwin or Hardwick instead they’d have won a flag already.

    As for this match, it’s poor quality. Port remain an average team, but I’m surprised Brisbane aren’t performing better. They’re in their sweet spot to challenge and have the talent.

    I’m really unimpressed by this game. 
    I assume it’s humid and hot hence the poor ball handling. But both teams look lethargic.

    Haha even the universe has it in for Joe Daniher.

     

    Poor Joe Daniher has just confirmed that he is THE dumbest footballer in the competition.  Hand balling after the siren when he marked straight in front. 


    Daniher smiling and shaking every ones hand before going in to the change rooms to me means he is going to cop a Fagan blast. What a complete phuknuckle

    I’ve grown over the years and don’t like to disparage players… Joe D is an interesting individual, like wow, a case study of some kind. How much are they paying him?

    He has the ability to do the magical, on rare occasions but far to often he’s off with his head noise having a dance party and loving it.

    Doesn’t look like either of these teams will finish top 4 with this display.
    Bring the heat and both of these teams will crumble. Nothing has changed since last year.

    Maybe 17 clubs know they can’t match a certain team? Did they watch the GF last year and go OMG

    I’m very disappointed with Brisbane. They look slow, lethargic and their skills are absolutely god awful. What has happened here? 
    Port look hungrier but I struggle to rate them. Maybe that’s on me. 


    Somehow Joe Daniher has been the most interesting thing about this game.

    The Pear are going to end up with 17 players and a 50 point flogging.

    Here he is, Joe D to shut us all up.

    Chris Johnson has been excellent in commentary, excellent.

    This is quite a different contest now.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
