How can that not be a 50 against 2 meter Peter - should be a report for a charge (though was it Cox 😎 who got away with it a  few weeks ago?)

    I'm vaguely Celtic, I guess the link with Henrik.L when I first went O/S 20 years ago... more about parochial australiana. 👌

    Went to Hamden in 1974 for Rangers v Celtic. Although I love the colours (green & white) but resinated with the R's. There were eight of us from various parts from around the world. (Rangers won) and the crowd was amazing. You could not move as we were shoulder to shoulder and one of our party complained of a "warm leg" from behind. Forget getting out for a toilet break. Great time though. Still love watching matches on Youtube. Atmosphere is brilliant.

    Surely those Weagles Guernseys are the ugliest in the league! 🤮

    Nothing like our navy blue and red combo 😎

    Again a play on after Shiel tried the faux handpass to draw a 50. Just hope it is called consistently ( and of course it won’t be).

    Looks like an early night for me.  H v E on 7 pretty boring stuff.  Tried B vs WC on Kayo only to get Derwaynne and the inane pun, rasp voice commentary.  Unbearable.  Will check scores in morning.

    West Coast to their credit are trying hard and defensively working their [censored] off. They’ll still lose by 100 points.

    McStay a big out for Lions with both Daniher and Hipwood on the sidelines. Rayner now taking on a big role up forward.

    Hi MT64. Have you seen the footage of Ibrox rocking on Thursday night ? This is the footage of the gantry where the cameraman was sitting shaking after the game.

    Thought hawthorn wern't playing great and look like they are playing differently to how they played against us played last week, but then towards the end got a roll on and hold a 3 goal lead.

    Not counting my chickens but if we do manage to see off the Saints tomorrow there's every chance we could be sitting on top at 10-0 with 200% by the time we come up against Freo.

    • 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.
