PREGAME: Rd 01 vs Western Bulldogs

Looking forward to seeing McVee and Laurie in their debut games tomorrow night. Not enough positivity around this for my liking.

$161 for 3 people to have a reserved seat at the footy is nuts. We’ve all be fooled

That is for sure! Who are these rancid, isolated opportunists?

And lastly, I bet that when Bowey debuted you thought "who and why", and he turned out to be a gun and best 22 players.

I remember getting into an argument with a poster here (can't remember who) that slammed Boweys selection. They more or less wrote him off from the start of the year because of his build stating he would get destroyed in finals. Was one of the more odd interactions I've had on here.

Top level of the ponsford is shut.

 

Where will @Supermercado and I sit instead?

They're not doing this nonsense again are they? People's ground my [censored].

I've been watching our round 23 game from last season.  The one where we were up by 66 points at half time against the Lions and playing some great footy.  If we play anywhere near that level, the Bulldogs don't stand a chance.

Assuming Melksham who trained with the main squad at training today is the sub, the team changes from that night to tomorrow night are:-

OUT: Hibberd, May, Hunt, Jackson, Viney, Fritsch, Jordon (came on as medi-sub for Jackson)

IN: McVee, Tomlinson, Hunter, Grundy, Laurie, McDonald, Chandler

I'm not going to try and mount a case either way as to which night was the better line-up because as far as I see it, it's really quite close.

The outs are better than the ins. 

We lose our premier defender and our premier forward.

There are some terrific ins in Hunter, Grundy and T Mac, but I just feel the loss of May and Fritta tip the scales to last year's round 23 squad. We saw how we functioned without May in the Sydney, Collingwood (and most of Freo) losses and it wasn't great.

Must be predicting a crowd of sub 30,000 if they're closing the top of the Ponsford.

If they opened it up for the Melb V Freo game last year where just a couple of blokes and a dog sat up there, then surely it's opened for this one. 

As if the top of the Ponsford is closed for Round 1? Just seems really odd.

There was one game last year - either GWS or Freo - where they opened it by mistake and went around kicking people out at quarter time.

Yeah layz,  it states it on the MCG website when I last checked…baffling.

A lot of negativity with regard to the Tomlinson selection but we will not know how good or bad the selection is until the game is played. We could see Tmac and Tomlinson swapping ends if the game is going against us.  

Will be watching a replay during a stop over in KSA.

indicates they're expecting a pretty small crowd

Go read the comments. They’re not far off. Pretty good. 

Would have gone Turner myself but i back the FD to make the right decision.

And best of luck Tommo. He deserves a bit more love around here given he was in AA form until he was injured in 21. And missed out on a premiership because of it.

How could sportsbet have us as favourites?

Bulldogs must be a huge chance now that May is also out.

There will be alot of money going on the dogs today before the odds even up.

I hope they know something we dont.

Who actually cares what those parasitic blights say about us?

  • 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.

    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?
