I can't stand seeing Collingwood keep on winning but I'm not a fan of Richmond either.

However I would like to see the pies get knocked off tonight

    Tonight's game could be a beauty. 

    Great test for the tigers, their young brigade should be fast enough to keep up with the manic style of Collingwood. 

    Whether they are skilled enough? 

    Collywobbles seem to be the benchmark early this season.

    Pies will smack them

    Talking around 90k tonight.

    Living in Nsw, they would not get that for an Nrl grand final.

    There's only one real footy game in this great country.

    I think that's a big part of the reason Melbourne's the sporting capitol of the world, we have the best football game anywhere🙂

    Who are the actuaries that determine all the afl betting markets like margins....player with first and most goals....most disposals etc?

    Would they spend all weekend watching games. Where do you apply?😃

    Plus a famous horse race, a grand slam tournament and an f1 race. Not too shabby.

    In a perfect world, both teams lose, fold, and cease to exist.

    That won't happen, so I will go for the lesser of two evils and barrack for Richmond.

    May God have mercy on my soul.

    If there is one player in the league, I would like to add to our team, and I know it’s not going to happen, but it would be Shai Bolton.

    Richmond could well be the 2022 Collingwood of 2023. They just defend really well and stay in games. Was the same against Carlton.

    This describes my evening in front of the footy too. It feels wrong to support the Tiges, but bringing the Pies back  a peg  would be very, very sweet.

    Pies should have at least 3 more goals but for bad kicking. Tiges hanging on by their fingernails i reckon

    Clear prior and took the player on. What a joke, i'd be fuming if that were a dees player tackling.

    I posted on here when Bolton was playing reserves at the beginning of his AFL career that I would love him at the Dees. I copped a fair bit on DL at the time.

    Well when it's 10 scoring shots to 1, Collingwood is +25 in disposals, +10 in CPs, +6 marks inside 50 and +5 inside 50s, you'd want to have a good defence because if they don't arrest the momentum the dam wall is going to burst.

    • 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.

    • 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.
