Do we see Trac coming off soon and letting Smith have a run forward.  

Nope. If anyone it needs to be a small forward. Again we’re struggling with all bar Kozzie wanting to be at fall of the ball.

Lacking another tall target up forward, bring Smith on as another option. If Brown continues as he is, I’d have him ‘strain a toenail’. That’s subbable

    Lever walked off ok into the race yeh?  He appeared to trip on a blade of grass coming in to stand the mark there and tweaked an ankle?

    This game should be over but more worrying is the lack of any finals flair

    We literally are limping towards the finish line

    One my favourite facets of what makes some boxers great is heart. Taking punches and continuing to fight like all hell no matter the odds and just willing yourself to keep going.

    We’re going to need all the heart we can muster to beat Geelong/Sydney/Collingwood to get there.

    Doggies did it in 2016, no reason we can’t.

    That is just really bad to give that last goal away. 

    Even worse when it's centre bounce and we would've known how long was left

    Any word on Lever?

    Rolled ankle. Should be fine.

    Is it just me or is this a pretty average game?

    We have a handy lead should be more but I am certainly not feeling like it’s over.

    👍🏻langers petty Harmes 

    just okay and winning by 22 

    🥔Jackson captain fumbles all night - could’ve taken 7 marks but fumbled them all 

    🥔sparrow gotta bounce da ball !! 
    🥔brown gotta not run straight into defender 

    ? Spargo ? 


    Nick Riewoldt when asked how did you play as a forward, answer all I tried to do was keep on the run even when if the ball was further downfield and keep leading, run my opponent around all day, hey might be worth a try saves just bombing it in again.

    Worried about this 2nd half.

    We have so many banged up bodies out there it's not funny.

    We have been absolutely deplorable when it comes to goals in the last minutes of quarters. I reckon we'd be a lot more stable if we could do that from happening. Two outta two tonight.

    It’s not good at all. Very bland and far from the usual intensity of a final

    Brayshaw doing a good job on Neale.  9 disposals and not a heap of influence.

    Would love to be further ahead.  Looking sore again, but time to dig deep and get the job done this quarter.

    Trac looks v v sore not sure he should be out there 

    There's about six out there that are going to be dubious by the last. Should be aN interesting finish if we don't bury them in the third

    Trust issues but happy to be up and keep a high scoring team to 3 goals for a half. Just need to get a quick start to the 3rd and bury this mob.

    I saw him do that same thing at training about 6 weeks ago. It took him 10 minutes to recover. Got no idea what that is about except he has an ankle with a mind of its own sometimes.

    This is definitely not a great quality game. Miles away from the great contest against the Swans. 
    Hopefully different result.

    spare needs to play high half forward. not close to a winger 

    Put Harmes on Zorko for the first 10 mins or so....appeared to be their main play maker that quarter.

    Is Gus still on Neale?

    Fritta needs to stay with Andrews on the transition.  Giving him too much room IMV.

     

    Reckon we get overrun from here. Just too many injuries to key players, and no forward presence out of Kozzie to drag us over the line

    With so many of our players limping, roll the dice to see who smith replaces,  early In the third I think. Go Dees

    • 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?

      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.

      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.

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

      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?
