Why do we need 8 games spread over 5 days, with 4 night games?

Surely tonight's game could be played on Friday, and Friday's game on Saturday.

    I can only assume a larger slice of the broadcast pie (4 night games vs. 3). It's almost always about the money.

    Because the broadcaster can now have Thursday night games again. Were not allowed to play Thursday nights for seven rounds. As of the next AFLPA deal Thursday night will be every week.

    Swans -       Saints might be gone

    Dogs   -       Not sure if this is just a wish

    Lions   -       Hawks are getting better but!

    Crows  _      Someone is going to lose to the eagles at some point.

    Dockers  -   But cheering hard for the Tigers

    Giants  -      Forgotten is this their on week or their off week

    Draw -         Bloody hell do I really have to pick one. 

    Melbourne - Never been as confident as I am this week.

    You just cannot argue against these sides. They pull the crowds in, no matter what.

    I like having a Thursday night game to watch.

    The death riding thread was good fun there for a while. Would love if freo fell back in a hole

    A Swans win tonight puts them firmly back in the running for the final 8.

    Dogs V Port is a big game for us. A Port win if combined with a Collingwood win on Monday sees those two teams 3 games clear and almost certain top 4. A loss by both leaves the race wide open.

    Freo v Richmond is interesting. Go Tigers

    Blues v Bombers (draw please)

    Why don't you come up to The Manor and watch it with Uncle WCW ?

    I could show you my etchings during the lunch break.

    • 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.

    • 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?
