Now sacked I believe Dub.

really?  pity he can't kick a footy, he'd be fine

Pies should be further ahead.

 

Guys I’m going out on a limb here to say that neither St Kilda nor Collingwood win the flag this year.

    or top 8 Jaded

    Is it my imagination or are Collingwood players buggered after each play? They are hands on hips sucking in the air. It’s been one quarter of one game. Doesn’t look good. 

     

    West Coast injury list:

    • Oscar Allen Foot 4-5 weeks
    • Campbell Chesser Ankle Inactive
    • Greg Clark Shoulder 6-7 weeks
    • Tom Cole Ankle Inactive
    • Jamie Cripps Pectoral 6-7 weeks
    • Jack Darling Foot TBC
    • Liam Duggan Knee 1-2 weeks
    • Luke Edwards Groin 1 week
    • Tom Joyce Ankle 4-5 weeks
    • Dom Sheed Ankle 8 weeks
    • Luke Shuey Hamstring Test
    • Zane Trew Shin 5-6 weeks
    • Connor West Hamstring 2 weeks
    • Elliot Yeo Calf 2-3 weeks
    • Tim Kelly 1 week
    • Witherden Tbc

    Looking at the Gold Coast team, they look more settled and mature than ever before.  Chol and Casbolt up front.  talent through the middle.  they could surprise a few this year

    How good would it be as a Pies fan to see the Daicos boys running around. God I hate Collingwood.

    The Pies have come out hard but their bottom 10 players are poor to say the least.

    If the Saints get their pressure game going, they should win by 40+

    Maybe the Mason can lend his new goggles to the commentary team.

    They have a strange game plan that involves 18 players deep defence (note the two parallell line of players) and then running forward together as a wave with handpasses. Keeping it up will be difficult

    Jamie Elliot has always been such a good player. Great hands and kicks straight

    What a horrible injury list - I thought they had some covid cases too.

    De Goey should spend less time groping women and more time groping a cross trainer. Looks plump.

    Great mark King - but not a lot of footy smarts with his kick.

    How good to see a big club like the Pies at the home of footy in round 1… oh wait sorry.

     

    If they can’t mark it in fwd 50 it’s an easy and straight rebound out for the Saints.

    Max King, nice (mark).

    As BBO said his kicking is shi t even if BT said he’s been working on it “from what over heard”.

    • 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?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
