Taylor Adams tests positive.

With De Goey suspended the Eagles might beat the Pies this weekend.

An interesting insight:  McRae also revealed that only five of his players have yet to contract the virus.

    Sadly ... no hope.

    Tips from AFL folk:

    Port Adelaide 2-10 Melbourne
    Geelong 6-6 Brisbane
    Sydney 12-0 North Melbourne
    Collingwood 12-0 West Coast
    Richmond 0-12 Western Bulldogs
    Fremantle 9-3 Greater Western Sydney
    Essendon 12-0 Adelaide
    Hawthorn 4-8 St Kilda
    Gold Coast 0-12 Carlton

    Surprised at the lack of confidence in Richmond, Adelaide and to some extent GWS, and Hawks.

    The result I wish for the most is for Lions to beat the little cats on their own turf.

    Tipsters always play it safe. Generally base their tips on how a team performed the previous round.

    GCS nearly knocked us off.

    Carlton aren't a certainty by any means.

    Like LH I think Hawks v Saints is close to 50/50.

    From an MFC viewpoint a Brisbane win over Geelong is the conservative approach but hell I like being atop the ladder so Geelong to win !!

    Somehow we need the crows to beat essendon, because that would give me a laugh. The fans would go nuts. Walker back helps. 

    Interesting Geelong are resting Selwood tomorrow night against Brisbane. I would have thought you are coming up against a pretty good midfield and would need your best. 

    I know I put it in another thread but why do we have to travel again when some of these teams don't have there first interstate game until round 9 or longer?

    Selwood is now a way from being their best.  They got him to the record # of games as an AFL captain last week so now he gets a rest.  He is their spiritual leader but not sure they will miss him.  Its been a while since he has put in a really good game, let alone a match winning one.

    Scott learnt his lesson last year that his old team will run out of legs.  He is in preservation mode for finals.

    Agreed.  I am tipping Giants, Freo are up and down.  Tigers absolutely have a good chance

    and with Carlton limping over the line against the Hawks, GC have a good chance at home

    3 interstate games out of the first 5.

    What did we do wrong

  • Quote

    If you add up the AFL and The Age Tipsters only 1 of 22 are backing Gold Coast.

    Surprised me a little given how they played at home against us.

    Who ya got this week?

    FPtlD7IVgAIoM-x?format=jpg&name=4096x409

    Geelong but is Brisbane are serious they should win 

    If Sydney don’t win by over 10 goals I’m calling it a loss 

    West Coast are rooted. Pies by plenty. 

    Dogs but it’s a 50/50 at the G

    Who knows. Two teams you never put money on  

    Bombers finally 

    Saints? Could go either way but MCG helps Hawks  

    I hope GC! Time for Carlton to lose

    Have I missed something? Next week's game is at the G right? We've only travelled twice to date.

    Bumping for tonight. Isn’t it nice being able to enjoy the whole weekend of footy basking in a Thursday night victory. 

    Also do we want to the Cats to win t to claim top spot or Lions to win just so Geelong lose?

    Geelong to lose hopefully!

    I don't know if you've looked at our fixture for the end of the year, but our last 8 games include trips to Adelaide, Geelong, Alice Springs, Optus Stadium in Perth and the Gabba. 

    It will be a fair test.

    Was that another one of the games we didn't get out of first gear ? 🙂

    People have laughed at us for years, came across this and found it amusing. Would love the Crows to beat Essendon  just to see the next instalment.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
