Gold Coast Suns should be ashamed of themselves. Big Richmond injuries, a must win game to stay in touch and they dish up this tripe. Good thing they re-appointed Fat Boy Slim instead of Clarkson.

    They've had a very fortuitous season IMO.

    Beat Essendon by 11, Carlton by 4, Hawthorn by 4, GWS by 11, GC by 5 and now North by 7.

    5-0 in that run could so easily have been 3-2 or worse, which would have them back in the pack and/or out of the 8.

    To their credit they held on in all of those games, but generally speaking when a side does this well in close games they eventually regress back to the "norm", which is to not win 100% of them. Could happen this year with their moderately difficult run home, or otherwise we might find that next year they drop off in ladder position as you can't expect to continually win these close games.

    On the percentage ladder they are 12th. Tells you everything about how lucky they’ve been in a season where 2 of the teams have essentially been byes.

    I've been hearing all season about how Witts is the favourite to replace Gawn as AA ruckman.  He's done absolutely nothing tonight.  A few dinky little handballs.  Tigers 4 goals from stoppage out of 10. Other than being big and getting his hand to it a bit he's pretty useless.  Gawn is in no danger from him. Richmond will win this by 10 goals plus the way they're going.

    I've been hearing that Collingwood are sniffing around a certain hyphen type name from a side who played them recently, which couldn't happen could it.

    Assuming you mean Horne Francis I'm sure there's a number of clubs.

    If Jackson goes West I'd be content with HF and a top 10 pick.

    My instant reaction was ‘why would Alex Neal-Bullen want to play at Collingwood?’

    Seriously, players shouldn’t get match payments if they miss shots that easy.

    Wouldn't mind seeing the suns make the 8. Mainly because it'd likely be at the expense of a Tigers or Dogs or similar

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
