Umps doing their thing. They might just get the Crows over the line here

    Yes, Ginnivan fell on the ball, but it immediately went behind him. Horrible free kick. But it is against Ginnivan so I will take it.

    Collingwood ability to win has been quite impressive. I've been saying for a while they are a genuine flag smokey. Probably won't win it but they are firmly in top 4 contention now and could well replace one of Melbourne or Brisbane. 

    The final round of Melb v Brisbane, Coll v Carlton could well decide the top 4. Geelong ending their year with WC at GMHBA is just so [censored] typical.

    Interesting how Collingwood has refreshed its team from within.

    Pre covid its VFL team was not that great IIRC but they seem to have nurtured them well.

    Like many I had them in the 8-12 bracket on the ladder

    [censored] are probably destined to win the flag. Every week they fluke their way to close wins.

    Great game. The quality wasn't always there but it was a ferocious contest throughout. Credit both teams. The intensity was finals like. 

    And i absolutely hate the pies

    Pies just getting lucky. Can’t wait to see them get destroyed in finals.

    What a brilliant match

    both team evenly matched. Experience of the Pies senior players get them through in the end

    Pies equal top? What an insane season!

    Lost our first game in round 11 and now there are several teams equal on wins. Second half of the season has been a flop for us (so far)

    Sigh.

    They're 7-1 now in games decided by under two goals.

    I would love to know if there has ever been a side sit this high on the ladder this late into a season with a percentage of 106.2%.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
