Dangerfield just the 14 disposals last night.

Was he tagged?

Nope, blown up after round 2.  Expect 1 or 2 dominant quarters and 2 or 3 totally missing.

 

I must admit that jeremy cameron bloke finds some very innovative ways to stuff up.

Is he over rated?

Mills and Dangerfield spent the entire night next to each other when Geelong had the ball or at stoppages, but when the swans had it Mills was running around on his own (and had 29 possessions).

Damn it I feel asleep during last quarter and missed Buds 1000. 
The two games so far this round really show the difference when a team is kicking well. 
Dogs 13.12 90 v Carlton 16.6 102

Swans 17.5 107 v Cats 10.17 77

I think it’s an area that we will need to improve on if we want to win back to back flags. 

There can surely be no dispute that straight kicking enhances the chances of winning .... and successful dynasties always seek to improve, so of course we can do better.

21.14 in the GF wasn't good enough for you? 🤔

Needs to be sustained, and improved upon.


23 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

bloods look really, really good - have a strong defensive mindset and set-up

mccartin x2, rampe, and flankers is a solid back six

Don’t forget we bid on Heeney and Mills meaning we in theory rated them above Oliver and Petracca.
 

In reality we would have just bid on them knowing Sydney would still take them but it just shows how obsurd the advantage they get from their academy is.

Media has already changed the narrative to him being a good bloke for giving the guy his wallet back. 

 

In no way is it deliberate, the bloke in black is running full pelt at him and Tuohy is trying to get out of the way of all the other people. 

It’s a prime example of why this tradition is dangerous (I still love it!) but then he find the guy to give his wallet back. Pretty decent of him.

Just like Shaun Higgins.

Seriously, how can someone be rested after only 1 game into a season.

 

Sydney is a premiership contender this year. A seriously good side.

I can't help but feel Geelong are pretenders. Many were fooled into thinking they'd made major strides after Round 1. In reality, I suspect that was just a case of Essendon being putrid. Up against a genuine side, they went to water. 

Nev Jetta is the pies defensive line coach today. Gross.

Love the guy but that first glimpse of him in a pies polo was all kinds of wrong.


Wouldn't it be wonderful if the crows won.

As they always do. Cats to old, to slow and fall apart when pressure applied. Wonder if Scott comes up with another excuse.

What a bizzare 2 games we've seen, last night with buddy then the false alarm evacuation just then at the G

I knew I shouldn't have lit up in that amenities room.

If Swans had Paps back it could be a top four spot but they certainly look the goods at present.

Carlton somewhat a surprise package and will be interesting to see how they continue.

Edited by leave it to deever


Collingwoods turn this week for umpire love.

You beat me to it. The last 10 minutes of the second quarter was poorly umpired and it ALL went Collingwoods way. 

Gee we've come off the high of buddy to some pretty average games. I expect the pies to roll Adelaide & dons v lions doesn't interest me except if the lions start thrashing them which I hope happens.

I don't even want to think about nth v eagles tomorrow.

The latest was just a ruse. A false alarm but the pies fans still managed to ransack the MCC

Yea word to the wise just sweat on your opponent and let him pick up the ball. Defenders deserve some leeway.

I wish we were playing at 1:45 at the G. Just looked at our fixture & we don't play at day game until round 7 even then that's not until 4:35. 

I get being premiers we get put on at night but I do like a day game

Early season games can be hard to judge. Sydney started last season in the same form, winning the first four. You need early wins but you really don't want your team flying.

Adelaide started 3-1 last year, then only won 4 more games for the rest of the year. Richmond started 2-0 and missed the finals.

Brisbane started 1-3 and finished top 4. Essendon started 1-4 and made the finals. GWS started 0-3 and won a final.

Looks like Collingwood have thrown down the challenge to Carlton to be March premiers. The juggernauts that they are.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.
