I just watched the last 2 minutes on the AFL site. What a bizarre ending! What the actual …. was that Power player doing when he hit the Crows guy to give the free away, and then the kick was way off line and then swung against its trajectory to go through. You can see a Power fan go up when he kicks it and then slump down in his chair - that’s how off line it was as it was initially kicked. Such an odd end to a game.

Port had so many chances to ice that game, but didn’t. 
incredible…

Was listening to Triple M on the drive home, Bernie Vince & Co were going bonkers at the end. Bernie was actually great to listen to.

Just watched the highlights etc... of the Port v Crows game

  • Showdowns are great to watch, and this one looked like a great game of footy.
  • Some of the Crows young players really stepped up which might see them emerge from the bottom of the ladder. Might. At least they have a new benchmark. 
  • Power played some good footy but don't seem to have a match winner or big moment player. But they seem to lack passion and intent which are usually two of their strengths under Hinkley. 
  • That was a brutal incident, even though the contact was not head high. So unnecessary and could only end badly. I hope the young fella from the crows is OK. That was his first game back from neck surgery and he went off holding his neck. 
 

Adelaide: whether you love em, hate em or somewhere in between. If those scenes in the coaches’ box, the crowd and the players doesn’t give you the warm and fuzzies, you might wanna check your pulse. You may well be dead.

Came home from the G and watched the last quarter of the showdown. Even with the game in the balance they seemed to be strolling around the field with no urgency. It was a stark contrast to the intensity of the Mighty DEMONS.


Was at the game and had a great view of Dawson kick, one of the best inswinging set shots you will ever see.

Great games to watch as a neutral.

I think the only time those level 2 seats at GWS have had any @rses on them was that prelim against the Dogs a few years ago. 


Did I just see that Tom Green’s goal celebration included kissing a teammate‘European’ style ie, a peck on each cheek?

I think Derm wants a date with Pruess 

said he mentions how big he is one more time...   

he seems to think it’s hilarious 

I thought the crowd at the Dees AFLW was a bit poor - how bad it as at Giants v Suns!! All you can see is a vast panorama of vacant orange seats, Giants players in orange difficult to make out because they blend in with the seats, and the Suns in an absolute shocker of an away guernsey. Abomination. Add to it Brereton bagging on about Preuss, and as bad as the commentary was in the Casey game, it was easier on the eyes than this.

They're not even GWS supporters. The fire alarm went off in a nearby high rise apartment block and the designated muster point is Giants Stadium. 

Irrelevance vs irrelevance at giants stadium.


I’m very conflicted about tonight. 
On the one hand we have Collingwood going 3-0. On the other hand we have Geelong.

Think Oliver did that last night as well.

I hope Joel Selwood as the record-breaking most-capped captain is given a fitting experience tonight… a merciless hiding at the hands of Collingwood. 

Preuss is a good player but I don’t miss the guy at all, he just reminds me of the dark days.

Now for my second favorite pastime of the weekend: Barracking against the sooks. 


Doesn't look like there's that much of a crowd at the G tonight either. Should suit Jeremy Howe. He used to play for the current premiers apparently.

Yeah, you can't support either team.

Just hope for multiple injuries!

 

Darcy will be fawning over Selwood all game. Already started. 

ps Gawn is already a better captain than Selwood. 1 flag to nil

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
