How good is Isaac Smith at 34 years of age.

That was an excellent goal he just kicked.

    If the two clubs are monitoring their own interchange numbers and an interchange steward is monitoring both then it isn't too much of a stretch surely to let them know when they've reached their limit to avoid something like this happening?

    I really wish Fox would realise Adam Papalia is their best commentator and use him more.

    He has the audacity to call the game, and applaud the gameplay. It’s so novel!

    For those that are watching the Dogs v Adelaide game, have Dogs been that good or Adelaide that poor.

    Dogs are quietly making a top 4 bid.

    Was at the game. Crows brought some heat early but Dogs are outstandingly good at getting out of stoppage or spillage when being pressured. They looked a division above the Crows all day.

    I have the Dogs and Lions both to win a flag in the next 3 or 4 years...but had the Dogs a year or two away before some of their young talls mature. But their mids are good and clean enough under pressure to potentially go deep.

    Luke Jackson is carving it up today. His last month has been really good, and his groundball work is so clean and sharp.

    It's the same travel time as Geelong from Melbourne so it's not a long travel. Not much further than Casey from the Melbourne CBD in travel time.

    Why Bulldogs are paid $1M to play there by the State Government... who knows

    Ballarat used to be a marginal electorate.

    No conspiracy. Nth stuffed up there interchange rotations. Surely there is someone on the nth bench that counts these

    Used to be a part-time job - Ratten. They didn't back-fill the position. Tight budget at Arden Street.

    Bloody hell.  I'm no friend of Norf but even I'm wondering how many times the footy gods can fart in their faces. Brutal way to lose. 

    How good would Australia be if this had happened to Filth/PorkBarrellStadium/Carscum/Essendrugs/Horethorn?

    If you are going to be reasonable and sensible you are posting on the wrong site.

    8-0 free kicks in the final qrt 

    similar feel to last night 

    in fairness the Cats had the rub of the green the other 3 quarters. they were double the free kicks at one point 13-6. a lot of them very dubious and resulting in goals

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • 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.
