    Just turned this on. Where did all the Gold Coast fans come from? Sounds like they have a lot of fans there. 

    Fremantle's guernsey is putrid.

    Witts out again?

    Massive loss. Freo should win this. Darcy and LJ should dominate

    So am I right to believe that the gather round is not going to move state to state but go the the highest bidder each year. Word is Adelaide is in the box seat to get it again next year.

    looks like a soccer ground !

    Looks to be the same 'hot dog' shape as the Western Oval in Footscray. Completely straight wings.

    Umpires in love with Walters. Paid a mark he dropped for their 2nd and he clearly took the ball out then, but play on!

    I hope this isn't true. I 100% believe it should be held in Tassie maybe the year before they come into the competition.

    Games in Hobart, Launceston, Devonport and maybe somewhere like Glenorchy or Burnie?

    That’s better Suns, converting goals they’re supposed to.

    28-18 GC

    Longmuir wouldn’t be ecstatic that his 32 year old veteran is responsible for all of his 3 goals.

    If what Gillon McLachlan has stated today to true then 16 other AFL clubs should just tell him to leave now. Tassie would be a great idea but if you can not move it State to State just knock it on the head now.

    That would be akin to the SA government buying their two AFL clubs an extra home game each year.

    Interesting to see what the other 16 clubs have to say about it.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
