After finishing 17th last year, how did Collingwood play more games against the current top 6 teams than Geelong AND Brisbane that finished in a prelim??????????

Because Collingwood played us twice, and then played Geelong in their first final.

We played Collingwood, Fremantle and Brisbane twice each.

Sydney and Geelong both played the minimum (i.e. no repeat games against the final 6 sides in the H&A season). Their repeat games were ridiculously easy, although that comes with hindsight (e.g. Sydney had the Dogs, GWS and Essendon twice - the latter two made finals last year but not this year, whilst the Dogs went from runners up to barely 8th).

No it is about TV ratings. Prime viewing time is 8 -10.30. Spectators are just collateral damage. It wont be long before all games are night games / early evening.

Well if TV ratings are the real reasoning, this old fart finds for “neutral games”  at1950 on a Friday night unless they hold special interest or at ripping games up to half time, I switch off at the half.   Whereas for 1920 games I am far more likely to hang on.

Agree, Ginnivan excepted. Last game, the little twerp’s stats were (roughly speaking)
1 star jump (when someone touched his back)
3 kicks
1 tackle 
1 - 50 metre penalty 
My Collingwood mate reckons I have obsessive hatred fixation - really not sure what he is on about

I had to remind myself he was playing ( a little like Jackson actually ) because there was a swarm of magpies all over the ground and he was pretty irrelevant to proceedings

Freo are the best traveling team in 2022 and they've got a win already at the G this year. I'd still give the edge to Collingwood but this won't be a gimme.

Just to nit pick, we lost 2 games away all year, Freo lost 2 and had a draw. Agree with your assessment though!

It's a valid nit pick haha. Stand corrected, 2nd best traveling team.

Another thing that is ridiculous is just how bad it is to get into Richmond station after the game. 

I live in Yarraville. There was no trains going west for some reason so I had to call someone to come and collect me and my 70 year Mother from Richmond station.

Richmond station after a game has been a disaster for 15 years.

Thank you! Sydney I can understand, but Brisbane and Geelong not having harder repeat games compared to Collingwood considering the final season draw isn’t announced until what, round 16?

I could very well be wrong, but to me however you split it, a 17th finishing Collingwood should not have played more of the top 6 sides than Geelong or Brisbane.

God how bad is that and people wonder why some people prefer to stay home and watch.

I think a tad longer than that.

I remember as a young fella standing on the platform and looking at all the red rattler 'football specials' lined up down the track waiting to take the fans away.  Now that the jolimont yards are no longer there this doesnt happen.

And having to tap on at 11pm is absolutely stupid.

I reckon Metro trains employed Ticketek to implement the myki system.

I've rarely bothered with trains lately. Since Covid they've been a hunk of junk and seem to either run a lot less or have replacement busses you only find out about at the last minute. So unreliable.

Nice having 100,000 plus members imagine a Pies Vs Tigers final with 200,000 plus members trying to get tickets. Wonder if they would be allowed ten each.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
