A Big Friday night game.

Who would have thought it would be the "last chance saloon" for these two teams so early in the season.

If GWS beat the Cats that is probably goodbye top 4 for the Great Ocean Road team

The rest of the round is rather humdrum but perhaps the Crows upsetting the Blues could round out the weekend.

Oh can hawthorn just do a job on Essendon so there is more media focus on them and talk about reviews, players who aren't performing and just there team in general. 

 

 

Bizarre that the clear match of the round is on at 1pm on Sunday


Fascinating to see Port tonight 

Will they have another Horror Show against Footscray?

 

 

Well we will lose top spot this weekend (for at least 12 hours)

maybe even go down the desperate lows of 3rd spot

The Lions will gain around 15% I'd say!

Why? coz their players don't look after their bodies and train/recover correctly.  they have 17 injuries and would be able to cope with players out with covid for one week

get a decent conditioning and high performance coach and get some standards

I don't get this. They are missing 3 players because of covid. The rest are injuries. That happens in footy


Port, Freo, Tigers, Swans, GWS, Essendon, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide. 
I suck at tipping though, tend to let MFC’s best interests and my hatred of teams guide me, not wise. 

LOL Eagles out partying before covid nightmare. Just made W.A News. Coach Simpson not happy

Yep just read that. Honestly you just shake your head. Just be sensible. I mean you are entitled to have a life but when your club can barely fill a team each week just use your brain

With the exception of GWS v Cats this week looks reasonably straight fwd, but as we know there’s been at least 2 big upsets each week.


Don't know what the go is with FTA broadcasting this round, but it appears that only three of the nine games will be on Channel 7 - one tonight and two tomorrow afternoon.  Looks like there is no Saturday night nor Sunday arvo games on FTA.

Anybody have any idea why they aren't showing the customary four matches at the usual times?

Now what did Arnold Schwarzenegger say in that movie where he played the robot, when the janitor came knocking on his motel room door?

I imagine Channel 7's response would be along the same lines.

You tell me.  I've never seen any of that meathead's movies.

Two friday night games.... OK I can try to get on board.  One in Perth so obviously start the Melb game at 7 and then the WA game starts at 9:30 (7:30pm local time) so no overlap yeah?

Oooh no, AFlL decide to start the WA game at 6:40pm local time and have an entire half is overlapped with the other game.

Why you ask??  good question!

I don't think north will perform well even with Freo's outs but still.

can anyone enlighten me?

Well…for that reason and that reason alone, there should be no cancellation of the game. Let the players and the team reap what they’ve sowed!

Port

Freo

Tigers

Swans

Giants

Hawks

Bears

Powell-Pepper running through the banner with a baby, who looks about a week or 2 old? WTF?

I never see the point of footballers running through the banner with their kids, but this is next level.

 

No doubt the commentators are told to not question or say negative things about the umpires

thats the only reasonable explanation

  • 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.
