would be nice to put a gap on a few more interstate teams.

Don't particularly want to end up third with Brisbane and Freo at 1 and 2

    That free kick against Davey (GCS) for running too far was diabolical. Critical time in the game. Coach killer.

    Surely players know that they are running to far. 

    But GC missed some easy goals that quarter, but it would be great if they could win.

    Their intercept marking has been off for weeks because they on't seem to know what they're supposed to be doing in this new Collingwood game plan. They've robbed Peter to pay Paul.

    Witts is a really good ruckman - some of his work is so good to watch. And although Buddy will do some miraculous stuff and may be even help win a game or two, a larger % of his work each week is becoming a liability.

    HTB free payed against Witts...

    "That's smart by Kennedy. Jumped on top of Witts and dragged it back in"

    🤔

    If everyone - including the presumably the umpire - can see that the tackler dragged it back in, why does this call continuity go against the guy under the pack who has been tackled?

    Jarrod Witts is the second best ruckman behind Gawn.

    Swans have been really poor in this final quarter. Can;t get any offence going at all

    I actually think the Suns have the bones of a really good side.. they probably need a better coach, and 2-3 really good experienced players but i reckon they can be optimistic.

    Problem is they get right on the edge about to explode and be raided again by Victorian clubs.

    This will go down as one of the worst last quarters in recent memory. Both sides hopeless.

    Bigger problem is that they have few players like Touk Miller who works his butt off..

    Sydney’s midfield smashed by Gold Coast

    clearances and contested touches 

    maybe Sydney aren’t that good

    Both those results good for us. Win tomorrow and we're 3 games clear of 5th (or possibly 4th depending in other results).

    Credit to the Suns but i'm not sure about the Swans top 4 bona fides after this quarter of football. They were dreadful

    • 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.
