You know those nightmare films where the protagonist is awful because of some curse and everyone is trying to kill them and then they take off some totem and all is good again?

That is how I feel about Cam Guthrie’s hair. I was all ready to resume my hate of the bloke and I just can’t get it up.

Shame.

The grass looks shocking. Let’s hope we don’t see a Melbourne player do a knee tomorrow

It is a real worry. De Koning went down just slowly walking backwards with no one near him.

The surface is very shifty in places and be Sue Chris Scott will tell us all about in his presser. Concerts and sport are not good bedfellows.

Why do they insist on calling it an underground handball? 

Sounds like some kind of deep thought process from BT

He’s not playing anywhere near as much inside footy as he did earlier in his career, so he still has a couple years left in him yet

Was just thinking that.

He looks as fit and strong as he has in years.

And he still has sublime skills, and gets value with almost all his possessions. 

So much time.

I know it’s entertaining to watch, but would it kill either of these teams to play defence or switch tempo?

Allowing a team to kick almost 75 points to half time doesn’t seem sustainable.

Exactly. A team that has solid structures with players that know and stick to their roles will shut this down.

Howe’s in so much pain. Despite what we might think of him, that’s terrible to see.

Absolutely. Anyone screaming in pain on the ground is shocking. It’s a game and someone just suffered a horrific injury. You just don’t wish that on anyone.

True, sorry, I just cant stand him.

Neither can I. But I know for a fact that he’s a really lovely guy off the field. A family friend who is a mad Geelong fan got the Geelong players to visit his 5 year son in hospital when he was battling cancer. Hawkins has since personally reached out to him multiple times to check on the kid. 
He might be an [censored] on the field, but these guys are still human beings and most of them are completely different off the field.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
