    If May did not give away those stupid frees, it would have been close to his best game in the red & blue.

    I wouldn’t worry about it Dee, I have absolutely no idea of the meaning of what you have just said!

    Serong gets 10 votes, Andy Brayshaw zip.

    While the stats wouldn't support the votes both coaches saw it the same.   Looks like it was the clearance work by Serong.  Perhaps the clearances were critical times that turned the tide. 

    Reckon Andy would be disappointed to not be in the votes at all given that 7 players got votes.

    Some key stats there are 10 clearances to 0. 6 tackles to 2. 

    Brayshaw played well, but he was more a link man off half back flank and not a massive impact. Serong was in everything all over the ground. He started everything for them winning it and going forward and locked it in when he didn’t win it. He had a much bigger impact on the match than Brayshaw and all others on the field. It was a brilliant performance and made me very envious of Freo having him and Young on their list. Both are superb young talents who have now stood up on the big stage of finals.

    Credit to May, really did play a brilliant game. Personally thought Petty wasn;t far off but well done to the big man.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
