It makes me sick that Collingwood could actually make top 4. 

Collingwood’s last three are tough, but before that not so tough. We have a cracking finish coming up.

Well it would be nice for Collingwood to fluff one soon, they really need to lose.

I think you might be underselling how good the Pies are. 

Fair point but I honestly don’t think they are good. A few good players. No stars. They are just coached well with an easy draw.

Would you worried about playing them in finals? I realise this beat us but they hold no fear for me when something is on the line

Depends how we go against them in round 21.

There’d have to be some slight concerns if we play Collingwood in a qualifying final and the Pies have a potential 6-1 record over us since round 23 2017.

Nightmares of a Pies v Cats GF

It's not unlikely

I put a sneaky shekel on when the pies v Cats GF was paying $71 just after QBday. Suspect the odds would be much lower now.

They’re top 2 material if you ask me.

They’re only a game and percentage below Geelong and have a laughable 4 weeks coming up.

We'll see in the return game. If we can put together a really good 4 quarter game against them next time round then it will be nice and fresh in their minds. I firmly believe if May plays and Cox gets towelled up we win that last one even if not convincing. 

I just want Collingwood no where near top 4, I want them to get lost.

geez, gold coast really hard done by, umpiring very favourable to collingwood in the last. 

They and Carlton are being umpired into favourable finals positions.

“Kangaroos midfielder Luke Davies-Uniacke was outstanding with a game-high 35 possessions and eight clearances in a lone hand”

I saw only bits of the Kangas v Cats (mainly watched Suns-Pies). But must say LDU is a gun and definitely one shining light for Kangas this season.

Geelong gets North and the Eagles twice this season.

Yes worked that out. Cats play Eagles at home in round 23.  That’s a nice draw for them and their percentage.

Makes next week even more important.

AFL is rubbish if Melbourne aren’t playing. 

True. But there’s something poetic about a Hawthorn vs GWS game being the most irrelevant game of the weekend. So irrelevant I won’t even bother watching. Watching WC Richmond hoping for the miracle upset, watched North hoping they would injure the cats, to no avail.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
