Dangerfield pushing his thumb into Gibney's eye was as blatant and as deliberate as it gets.  Dog act on a kid who has played 4 games.

    To West Coasts credit it was only the one really bad quarter that killed them.

    Given WC flew a WAFL team into Adelaide I’m flabbergasted they got within 10 goals.

    Geelong are clearly saving their best footy for the second half of the season, per last year.

    Power and Crows will hate that.

    Were other states even considered?

    Opportunity to promote the game in non football states lost.

    Interesting to know who made this call, the outgoing CEO Gill?

    Wow, what the hell is the AFL doing? Pretty obviously nothing.

    Growing the game in other states? AFL says meh

    Didn't watch the game but noticed the following stats

    Hit-outs Cats 61 - 31 Eagles

    Clearances Cats 51 -31 Eagles

    Marks inside 50 Cats 24 - 13 Eagles

    Frees  Eagles 22 - 14 Cats

    So the Cats dominated the stoppages and had a dominant forward line but the Eagles were favoured by the umpires?

    #FreeKickEagles?

    Adelaide and Port should be made to play each other from now on in order to nullify the home ground advantage. 

    Essentially both sides are getting one more home game than the rest.

    If contemporary ground staff can handle six games on a wet weekend why can't we train on the MCG?

    Collingwood look off tonight and are missing their ruckman, De Goey and McStay might be out for the game.

    The scary thing about St Kilda is that they’re not even close to full strength.

    Saints look good. Bit like us in 2021. Guys taking contested marks. Manic attack on the ball. Working hard to support each other.

    I thought the idea of Gather round was not to have games at the same time and stand on their own.

    what is it about Hoges, never takes a game apart. should have 5 and they’d be home

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
