Collingwood remind me of Melbourne in 21, not the style but the team buy in and pressure. I can’t believe people are still doubting them, they look like they will be better this year than last year. 

Thought the same thing. Just hope it's not the same result as we had.

 

That free to Elliot (behind scored) for "dragging it in" was carp.  Tiger did start to drag it in but never controlled it, and the Magpie tackler nearly pulled the defender's head off.

Surely HTB must first mandate a legal tackle.  High contact / tackle must surely always take precedence?

Yes but they are running in waves from every line. As you say 2 receivers running forward ready to collect. 
each line has exactly the same mindset 

They are a very, very good side. Sad but true.

Are you saying they prefer the 'outside 5' option vs standing the mark Mr Leg?

Or....are you saying they initially stand the mark then walk backwards away from it even if they oppo hasn't played on yet?

Always the first and then the second when they can get away with it. If the kicker takes a step sideways, they start moving backwards, beating the umpires play on call, who let it go, as the kicker is off and running.

Just a little tactic they use, but it is the wave run that is winning them games and a fierce desire to win every contested ground ball. 

How was that not holding the ball against Daicos??

They're genuine premiership favourites for me right at this minute. 

I'm ready just to turn off this game. It's really depressing seeing the pies winning all the time & there supporters all happy

Do you think they would do better with Dusty, Broad, Short and Hopper?

Yep, their side is gutted at present.

I hate games like this: the lesser of the two evils get your hopes up a couple of times only to go down to the greater of the two evils. 😑

I agree, it’s very early on but it feels like there a lock for a top four spot.

Long way to go. Got to keep a healthy list first. But they definitely have the hunger - that’s for sure.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.
