Jason Taylor was a big Humphrey fan, good to know he’s still got an eye for it. 

After the early morning post match review, straight to the pool room to watch Humphery at 9:30.

They are a very good side wait till you see what happens to us on KB.

Yeah I know.

The two games last year against the Pies confirmed that we can’t go the distance with Collingwood’s manic and fast paced football.

 

Port are now becoming trust worthy.

In prior years this would be the sort of game they’d drop on the road as favourites.

Anyone see then as a flag chance?

We play Alice, we won’t get the Darwin game. 

why not... the Darwin game is an away game and will be rotated through the smaller Melbourne clubs of which we are one

We lost to Sydney twice last year which many said “confirmed” we couldn’t go with them. 

I hope the club hasn’t written our chances off like you have.

This question shouldn’t need to be asked. 

They are 100% a flag chance. Right now they have claims to being the best side in the comp. They have already shown that, no matter what happens today.

Because both games are played around the same time of year, and we can’t and won’t be made to travel to the NT twice in as many weeks. It just won’t happen.

Expected a lot more from The Tiger today. Hardwick would be gutted "watching from home" by the lack of response so far.

Bit tough they are only a goal down.

so yr saying there's a chance...

terrible decision to give the free for that head high. luckily Port missed but jeez the umpiring is so poor across the comp

tiges get within 2 points then a couple of very dubious frees to port


does that goal umpire ever back himself to make the call. another pointless review

How good is umpiring…. Said no one ever

Footy is becoming unwatchable. Need to go back to three Umps with the fourth watching from the stand. The AFL need to do something about it but wont.

How frustrating is it to see port miss these goals. Couldn't happen last week could it. No of course they take there opportunities against us

They missed heaps in the first half. It was the only reason we were still in the contest at half time.

Why have umpires stopped paying pushes in the back in marking contests?

Bit of a shame with Port but what can you do.

They’re looking very good.

  • 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.
