Ugh not only will they win but now they’ll probably have a massive percentage boost. 

Their percentage was 135 coming into tonight.  It will only increase by a tiny margin.

edit:  It went from 135.1 to 135.5.

    Unreal goal by Fogarty. He’s finally fulfilling his potential.

    I don’t think I can stomach watching the Selwood love-fest when the siren goes. Ima flip over to the Carlton match. Looks as though Adelaide are about to upset.

    Some of the choices clubs make for ‘fan engagement’ are questionable. Adelaide playing ‘Let’s get Loud’ by Jennifer Lopez after a goal?

    I mean I’m all for classic J-Lo, but that’s a very camp decision.

    Crows are going to be a decent team before long

    Heard Boys light up earlier in the qtr. Looks like the Burgess factor is paying off

    One of my hated songs of all time. Up there with Absolutely Everybody by Vanessa Amarosi

    Cats form at the G isn't super compelling.  4 wins 1 loss sounds good, but they beat early season Essendon and Collingwood, fell over the line against Richmond and then beat Carlton, who are presently showing us how well they are going.  Chuck in a loss to the Hawks and it is a bit meh.

    Having said that, they look seriously good at the moment.  Tackling hard, great ball movement, playing with dare.  Definitely a different proposition to last year.

    Well after the disappointment of the dogs, the Crowd have cheered me up!

    The Blues look cooked

    East to forget last year before finals. Cats 16 wins % 126. Won 10/11 at one points. 

    then [censored] the bed. I agree they are more dangerous. But I doubt they can hack finals intense inside footy week on week

    Some of the finest lyrics ever penned by an Australian…

    ‘Absolutely everybody
    In the whole wide world
    Everybody breathes
    And everybody needs’

    You can just picture her tirelessly working in the studio thinking ‘what rhymes with breathes, oh yeah… needs’.

    I hate to admit it but they’re the best team in the comp by a country mile at the moment. 

    Country mile on their country ground …. how about the MELBOURNE Cricket Ground?

    Mark Holden actually wrote that song. Which really says it all.

    Carlton playing in a horrific white outfit and losing just makes me smile, if Essendon lose tomorrow it will have been a pretty good weekend.

    • 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.
