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.

    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.

    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.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
