For mine, the worst week of the year is the one when we play Geelong in Geelong (which is every time we play Geelong) because Geelong. 😁

    In fairness WCW, we played Geelong at the MCG in 2020 (never mind the fact that nobody could go to it).

    This is true. I just jump on any and every opportunity to biiitch and moan about having to make the miserable trek to the forsaken hell-scape that is Mordor.

    Lovely of the AFL to schedule us down at Mordor on a Thursday night, two years in a row.

    Ah, nice little getaway.

    Maybe tie it in with a trip down the ocean road and a cheeky surf 🙂

    Early autumn when the leaves start to change colour, red and dark ales reappear on tap and a new footy season is within touching distance is easily the best time of the year to be alive. 

    Love walking to the G during Autumn. The smell of elm leaves underfoot reminds me of going to the footy as a kid with my old man, sadly no longer alive. We'd have a pie and hot chips and watch Tulip carve up the opposition. Stop by the players rooms after the final siren and peer through the door, hopefully get an autograph. They looked massive to a little kid

    The next month or two will always be my favourite time of year to go to the footy

    I think it’s a great week. The one week of the year where every footy fan will have hope and expectation irrespective of what the pundits say.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
