Are these umpires [censored]-ing blind? This game is getting like soccer, which I will not watch unless it's the socceroos, because of the diving. Even then it [censored]-es me off when the socceroos do it.

Sydney, Freo, Brisbane and next year the Blues will be in furious competition to finish runners up the next 4 years

And I support each of them in this endeavour.

Hoping for an Essendon win today.

Deflates the Collingwood bubble and gives one the joy of seeing Essendon followers get false hope.

Mixed over Hawks v Sydney but marginally desiring a Hawthorn win. Draw would be nice

Hawks winning is better for us because Sydney is a bigger threat. I also want the players to go into next week knowing that we have to really go hard as Hawks are not a walkover.

It's one of those games where you're dirty that one team will have a win but ecstatic that one of them will lose.

A draw would be my preferred result with both teams feeling like they missed out.

edit:  I'm talking about the Collingwood v Essendon game.

Lance gets a fair run with the umps these days. I've watched him throw two handballs and a shaky free kick for a shot on goal.

Hawthorn have been fast starters & guess what they kick accurately. Something we need to be ready for

Was thinking the same Dees. I'm sure Goody is all over it.

I will be interested whether the Hawks Use this attacking game style against us next week. They will likely man up in defence and rely upon clearances to score. It will be difficult to beat us at this game but the Hawks midfielders usually rove Gawns taps pretty well so there is a possibility.

it’s a young side too so hopefully pressure on the ball carrier will result it a high turnover style game which is what we like.

I dislike Essendon and pies in equal measure well almost but a draw in that game would be good. Knock draw out brawl would be great so that they are behind the 8 ball next week.

I know it's some strange sort of reasoning but I'm hoping the Hawks win so they lose next week.

Feel so unclean.

How good was that footage of Josh Kennedy going of his rocker next to Longmire, apple doesn't fall far, just like his grandfather.

I reckon we could do worse than entice him to the club after he retires

I see the Hawks have gone all out with their Anzac Day guernsey design. 🙃

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
