    Twice (that I have seen) already tonight Reiwoldt at very least "shows dissent" without penalty.

    Have the AFL ever admitted that how they managed to preseason M V Carlton game was over zealous?  I guess they rarely admit they stuff things up.

    I’d rather our “learnings” from this is in a nothing game and let everyone one else learn in season proper

    Dogs now 6.14 to Toigs 9.4

    That is 20 scoring shots to 13.  

    Could well cost them big time.

    A stacked midfield will only get you so far, dogs should be looking to trade out some mids for key position players

    Gotta love watch Pruessy. Copped a late hit during a marking contest. Did the old 80’s throw of the elbow after. 

    from an initial view that’ll be two weeks

    Agreed. Bont for Weideman.

    Naitanui had Dean Cox early in his career too...

    Didn't help as he never learnt how to play footy, where to position.   IN the early days they always had a mic in his ear at training  to try and teach him.  It like comparing Stynes and Naitanui in terms of game knowledge.   In saying that he is the nicest guy and has done really well out of his career.

    No better sight in footy than a torp goal on the siren. The friendly exchange between ump and Riewoldt beforehand just adds to the theatre. Suffer Dogs.

    Dogs have no heart. When things don’t go their way they rarely comeback

    funny that hogan plays against former clubs in consecutive weeks

    i didn't see the preuss hit - was watching the other game - but was it actually bad? high? deliberate? what level of impact?

    They rely on their mids to have a perfect game to win. Means it’s very easy for things to fall apart. 
    We saw what happened in the grand final when our midfield gained control. It was a disaster for the Dogs.

    Massive fail for the Dogs tonight.  Can they regroup with this list and this coach? Not likely IMO.

    Have a look at the afl fantasy points for this game. Show how pointless disposals are if you don't use the ball correctly.

    For a player who get so many accolades Caleb Daniels make a lot of costly mistakes.

    Bailey Dale as well.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
