What's your death, taxes and football certainty for this year?

    Geelong will make the 8 for the 1000th time . A key Melb'ne player will get injured by a careless act down at  Mordor stadium late in the season.

    The umpires will be just as hopeless as usual.

    Caroline Wilson will predict a Tigers flag and will suck up to the new AFL  CEO.

    Is this true, and if so exactly to which carparks do they apply this rule?

    Kardinia Park is Crown Land run by a Trust appointed by the State. The rule will breach the Crown Land Reserves Act on disciminatory grounds.

    Woudl love to see a bunfight over this if real.

    No problem. Never been down to the cattery and never will.

    Can't understand why supporters punish themselves going down there. Slim chance at best of winning.

    There's three certainties in life, death, taxes and...

    1. Triplechins being duplicitous
    2. a game being won/lost thanks to the intervention of poorly calibrated technology
    3. a game being won/lost thanks to the intervention of poorly trained umpires
    4. Bevo, Lyon, Simmo, Hardon, Scott, Scott, Clarko blaming a loss/poor season on everyone else except themselves 
    5. The usual suspects milking free kicks at every turn
    6. Maysie flattening somebody/anybody then coming out and being BoG next game
    7. Goody and Richo holding a 45 min. pressa and telling us absolutely nothing
    8. Clayton winning the Bluey
    9. Max will hit the post from five yards out directly in front
    10. BT shuffling his ipod in the commentary box and asking Our Daisy to pick a tune.

    Oh, it’s real. Last year I went there and we were ushered to a parking spot whereat the attendant asked if we were Geelong members (despite being head to toe red n blue with flags n banners in the back seat). We said no and he said that’ll be $15. Curious, I asked him why he needed to know if we were Geelong members to which he replied, “it’s only $10 for Geelong members.” Walking towards the entrance I asked a few Geelong fans what they’d paid and they all said $10.

    Fair enough. I’d pay more to leave Geelong than go there too!

    I stopped going to that hellhole many years ago for the reasons you stated. But once you commit to the cheer squad you’ve just gotta suck it up.

    • 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.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • 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.
