I absolutely hate the thought of a roof being plonked on top of the night G, f k Eddie.

That was a really enjoyable hard scrabble game in slippery conditions.

    Interesting game in the context of the top 4.

    You would think that we and Brisbane will be there but the other two spots are wide open

    Now that Hawks are going to win I feel bad for cheering for them. [censored] Hawks.

    I don't even want it to be a draw though. Don't want Geelong getting anything

    We understand your anguish but it's in a good cause. The GET [censored] GEELONG cause.

    At one point a free was paid to Hawks and it looked to me like Hawkins started mouthing off to the umpire but quickly turned his head to a seemingly random Hawthorn player.   A cunning bastard.

    I think it’s a wonderful and very deep of thought adaptation of Bryan.

    So here we are, on top of the ladder a game and percentage clear. Only 4 teams have scored more than us, and one of those got to play North and another WCE.

    Meanwhile MFC and Freo are well clear on the points against. Already.

    Love seeing Geelong lose, but why does it have to be Hawthorn? I don't want to see Hawthorn anywhere near the finals for years. But right now each of Geelong, Hawthorn and Sydney sit inside the top 8.

    How good has this weekend been. Pies get done, Essendon, tigers, weagles and cats follow suit. Oh and we belted the giants.

    I agree - not ideal, but aligned with my order of dislike.

    Completely neutral here as I can't stand either club.

    That was a ripping game of footy to watch. Jeez that little #44 from Hawthorn has a crack. #44 from the other mob goes alright as well.

    This is the thing Mazer.

    During any game, umpires must see indiscretions that could be given as frees.

    How do they decide when/ which to pay?

    An ouija board would be more reliable. But wouldn't get past the Channel 7 AFL Oversight & Management Committee.  Slows the game down too much.

    Understandable sentiment. Now that the Cats have been skinned, and we've smoked our post-coital ciggies, we're asking ourselves what the hell we have just done. But look on the bright side. If the Hawks get anywhere near us in finals, we'll murder them.

    Assuming Geelong beats Hawthorn tomorrow, there will be a two game gap between 7th (likely Carlton given its percentage) and 8th (Collingwood).

    Five weeks in, we are getting close to the point where the top 8 starts to take shape. There is a reasonable argument the top 7 will be playing finals this year. You'd think the 8th side will be the Dogs, with Collingwood, Richmond, Adelaide, Gold Coast and GWS mid-table sides who will win some good games but not

    Three games and 50% clear of 9th.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
