Nankervis was Gawn like, almost...nah... feel sorry for tiges.

I must be old school but there was a moment and 10min mark of 4th qtr where they could have buried Stewart with body contact and didn't, Demons would have planted a tombstone

    Cracking game

    Entertaining from start to finish. Any game won by less than a kick is worth watching, but that was great to watch from the outset.

    The FOXTEL team have been pushing the “sympathy” card for Tom Stewart all night. Will the AFL have the guts to give him the 2-3 he deserves. (I really do not like Geelong).

    David King said 5-6 weeks if the AFL is serious about concussion. Stewart played a good game, but you can very easily make the argument that his hit on Prestia was the difference in the game.

    Great game between two middle of the road clubs. Richmond clueless on how to ice the game.

    That was an absolute cracker. Don't mind the Cats getting up. Don't want the tiger army stinking up the G in September.

    Yep, seeing the winner celebrate was going to be vomit worthy no matter the outcome.

    cats got the 4 points but at least there percentage didn't go up by a lot.

    Their percentage would have dropped slightly.  I'm tempted to say "by a whisker".  :D

    King massively overrates this sort of thing - 2-3 is about right.

    These are two good sides. Geelong are a better side this year with Stengle and De Konig.

    Cracking game to watch. First time I’ve watched cats play in while. They didn’t look like a bunch of old men this evening.

    I've also noticed players getting pushed in the back in marking contests and not being paid. It's more than holding one's ground, the aim is to take the opponent out of the contest. I thought Neale's mark on the boundary Punt Rd end was a clear push out. I think Petty got a good shove in another 1:1 contest

    Happy for players to hold ground, but not if it clearly takes the opponent out of the contest

    Yes it happened a number of times in our game Thursday night, player in front obviously pushed forward with the hands under the ball. And I always thought that the push in the back rule was created to stop the player behind merely pushing the player in front to take a mark or otherwise take possession by disadvantaging the player in the front position. This seemed the main reason for the rule but is now not being paid. But we still see umpires paying frees for falling into someone’s back when they are already on the ground or when you tackle someone and both fall forward. If you are strong enough to spin the player around it’s not a free even though you made contact with their back. So it seems it is now a “landing in the back” infringement rather than a “ push in the back” rule?

    Wonder if the cats will fade, given their declared loading. 

    Loading or old age?

    Agree. He’s a great, and usually fair, player - but that was everything we’ve been told the AFL wants to get out of the game.

    % Would have gone down actually.

    Tigers ran out of puff. Their mistakes in the last quarter were horrendous. Geelong just fed of their mistakes.

    100%. Terrible mistakes.

    Tom Lynch, whose entire job is to be the deepest forward on the ground, takes a mark at half back, turns around and plays on, and is shocked to find there’s no one in front of him. No Tom. No.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
