Eagles cannot be as bad as they are performing.

Almost makes one wish we had relegation to keep some honesty in the competition

Tanking for sure. They want the No 1 draft pick and No 1 pre season draft pick to land an un contracted big fish as a back up if they can’t do a trade. We should be nervous.

    Have commentators been given a directive not to comment on umpiring errors?

    Crows v WCE ... 3rd goal, blatant throw to Soligo who kicked the goal. Perhaps the umpires were blindsided (all 3 of them!!), but the commentators Healy + others said nothing. 

    Same as last night. There was a lot of throwing from both sides.

    Hadn't thought of that but makes sense

    Their list is in a dreadful state. They should go to the draft and use those picks on 2 good young players not bundle for one.

    How so?

    They turned a pick in the mid 20’s into the 2 best years of Kelly’s career, then traded him out at his most valuable which gave them the points to get Cameron. If Kelly wasn’t so highly rated at the time they’d never get Cameron. If Kelly was traded today they’d not get those points.

    But they gave up 3 first round picks for Cameron. They thought the list was better than it was and that Cameron would be their answer to Riewoldt and Lynch.

    Well whether or not you think they did the right thing is a whole other argument (which I agree with), but I’m more suggesting Geelong got what they wanted, and got very lucky to get it, and the Eagles made a list destroying decision.

    Ginnivan paid a free for the same thing Spaz got called holding the ball last night. Corrupt or incompetent?

    A strict free kick filth policy has been implemented today. The umpire closest to the play clearly forgot that, however another umpire 40 metres away rectified that by paying the free kick.

    No free kick paid to Sicily for the same thing in Q2 leading to a filth goal.

    I have found the definition of "prattling"; it's Lyon's overanalysis of every piece of play. I know he's the special comments guy, but he never shuts up. Reiwoldt is much better ... Hilarious comment pre game by Lyon ... the match between Oliver and Jiath is a match up for the ages. Really?

    Shocking free kick given against the pies which gives the Hawks the lead. Far out that was bad

    Jack Ginnivan: guernsey - much too short and much too tight. And shorts - big and baggy.  
    Fashion statement, or no mirror in the rooms?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
