Hate Carlton but maybe let them win tonight to get it out of their system.

Still don't rate the saints but the Hawks have their season quota now

Narrm have to win, the train ride home is just to long otherwise

Cats will win but only because it's at home

Suns to get it done for Dew, F/U Hardwick

Bombers. AFL has a comp where you pick one winner a week, different team each week. If only I had picked the W/C opponent each week.

Tigers to get the new coach bounce against Port. 

No stopping the Pies just yet but it will come.

Crows were too bad to be true last week and the Lions are due to drop a game.

    I'd love to see a Port loss to a coach-changing Tigers. Would soften last week's loss a little.

    it's such an even year, i honestly have no idea from week-to-week who is going to win other than home ground should be advantageous

    My thoughts exactly. As much as I want them to lose every single game we're never good in those situations. We're always the team to play another team back into form. Heaven help us if they get trounced this week and their coach gets sacked.

    It's a big one tonight

    Go Swans (simply because I don't want a resurgent Carlton next week)

    Continuing on my what's best for us theme

    Wins by Hawks, Giants, Tigers and Suns would be good.

    Time to concede top spot to the Pies and back them to beat everyone but us. (Yes I hate it but it makes sense and 2 is as good as 1 in the top 4)

    Anyone else feeling a sneaky Hawthorn upset or do I need less coffee today?

    Probably not but the art of good footy tipping is sniffing out a realistic update.

    One thing for sure is that Hawrthorn are a step up in class from North and West Coast and are largely injury free aside from a couple of best 22.

    An under the radar upset could be Suns beating Dogs in Darwin.

    I was wondering when the last time it was that a team won by 100 points one week, then lost by 100 the very next?

    Dorks win was to appease the masses (and WCE are truly that awful). If Hawks want Harley Reid then they're gonna need to get their percentage back in order (and the Saints are good at an easy kill)

    There’s something beautiful about Carlton and Friday night footy.

    You mean sort of like a dazzling meteorite falling from the pristine night sky and smashing into the ground with a thump?

    • 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.
