Tonights a tough game, who do you want to see lose more. Guess draft picks beats more dog pain. Swan beating the Cats and Saints beating the Blues would be nice.

    in a very long season it's still time to think about the final 4

    A game in Perth is off the radar but SA Qld and Sydney are possibles

    On that basis Cats over Swans and the miracle of Eagles and Hawks over the two Adelaide teams

    Giants over Lions

    Freo over dogs for the obvious reasons

    The rest ????

    I don't trust Carlton but wouldn't be surprised with an upset for reasons I can't explain.

    There will be shocks and upsets this weekend. If there wasn't we'd all load up on the punt and get 8/9 winners every week.

    Wouldn't be shocked if Hawthorn knock off Adelaide. Hawks play their best footy in Launceston and Adelaide have been home for 4 games in a row so will need to adjust to foreign territory.

    Giants could also knock off Brisbane in Canberra if all goes right for them.

    North could lift for Goldy??

    Not a chance West Coast could upset Port though with their glorified WAFL side.

    Hard one for the Dogs coming off a tough game against Port.

    I can see the Swans pulling off an upset.

    I can’t conceive of any reason why I’d prefer freo to win a game this year other than if it ensures we get a better finals position.

    The only time I barracked for the eagles in my life was round 3 this year. And I really dislike the eagles.

    I’d be very surprised if the hawks beat Adelaide. Crows will win by 40+ I reckon. And they will play finals this year.

    Still don’t think Freo is playing as well as they could.  Even last week they only just got over the Suns.

    The only wildcard is it’s in Perth, but the doggies have played there a lot so they know the ground and the weather will suit them. They have a better defense v fwd over the Freo matchups.

    Fingers cross the doggies can get a good game going.

    Nice idea to have veterans standing between each player.

    I'm not really fussed about tonights result. Hope it's a good game

    • 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.
