    Geelong winning the lions share of the contested ball but haven't been able to convert. Tiges have kicked straight and managed to keep the shackles on Cameron although Hawkins looks like he could cut loose.

    Geelong not out of this at all

    Tigers being burned by the umpiring. So many pushes in the back, missed throws, and holding the ball decisions earnt but not given.

    Picket is silky once he gets on the move.  Nice decision maker also

    BT is such an arrogant &^*$. It's a wonder Hodge didn't thump him one during the kicking in danger 'discussion'.

    Remember when umpire dissent was a rule? That was a fun 6 weeks.

    Another overlooked against Smith just then.  Ye olde AFL "different rules for different folk" trick

    I see nothing in Taranto or Hopper. They both look too slow.

    Beat me to it.

    Hopper over rated.

    Taranto poor kick.

    Wow

    Umpiring an horrendous joke again tonight... 🤦‍♂️

    Ffs, AFL get your priorities right

    Was at the Storm game last night, and this pales in comparison to the ref & bunker in charge yesterday

    Like the Tigers of old in that passage

    Jack riewoldt is cooked. Tiges doing well to be ahead considering they have no forward line.

    I know they have some outs, but when was the last time Geelong conceded 50 points in a Q

    I don't know, but not in this game. Do you mean 50 in a half? That would be Rd 7 vs Essendon, two weeks ago.

    Cats fwds aint much better with cameron having to play behind the ball to setup play.

    Richmonds disposal is just junktime and Geelong are only out there putting in  an appearance. With the outs that Geelong have it is an opportunity for Richmond but they seem to have really fallen by the wayside.

    Powell, first contest on the wing hits Jermaine Jones in the head trying to spoil then hits him in the head with his knee. Both incidental, no injury. I assume he’ll offer to sit out two weeks, it’s what he deserves.

    $1m, try at least $1.5m.

    My formula for calculations is based on the amount they are overpaid. For example @Redleg, they would have been better to recruit James Jordon for $400,000 a year and received the same output they are getting for 800K, with considerably more upside it must be said. You could argue for example, with Jack Reewold in his wheelchair, they should have done after Lobe to play second fiddle to Lynch. Cost half the price of Toronto and Hopper and structurally they would be much better off.

    • 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.
