Collingwood look the goods today. Let's hope the heavens open and the last quarter turns into a really heavy slog.

    They are pretty much just being Freo… look the goods only to run out of puff mid season. I’m half expecting Brisbane to do the same.

    Nah. Brisbane's loss to the Hawks is equitable to our loss to the Crows last year. They'll still be hard to beat. Freo on the other hand just don't have the talent.

    These are the gateway to barracking for Essendon. 🤮 

    OK, that is a bridge too far! Into the naughty corner with you, and come back when you have had a good long think about what is right and true in this world.

    I think you’re probably right re Brisbane, but it wouldn’t be the first time they’ve faded after starting the season well.

    We could hardly have asked for a better set of results this weekend.

    Geez. If we can get up next week Freo could fall as low as 8th.

    It’d mean more if it was round 21 but a gap at anytime is great.

    Collingwood and Hawthorns best is pretty good. Fremantle have been very average two weeks in a row, probably play off the charts next week. But I am not sure they have enough match winners to challenge for the flag.

    Gardiner is a liability in defence.

    With Geelong still being in their alternative universe premiership window they'd be mad not to offer Mundy a 3 year deal at the end of the season.

    Smart move to put Frost in attack. With instructions to do your usual thing and make sure the ball goes through the big sticks behind you.

    Good on him, backs it up with his footy and we need more characters like him in the game.

    First game of the year whereby the losing side kicked 100 points.

    Last year it happened twice.

    In 2000 it happened 8 times in the first two rounds of footy.

    How footy has changed over the last 20 odd years.

    It's very good of our traditional rival clubs to show us ways to beat our immediate challengers Freo & Brisbane. Don't worry, we won't be merciful when it's your turn.

    I hated it, he hasn’t got a humble bone in his body, good club cultures wouldn’t put up with that kind of rubbish 

    And he’s not that good

    I legitimately don’t think he was being a smart [censored], I just think he’s an excited kid. He’s so young. There’s no need to take the joy out of everything is there?

    • 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.
