Well done to the Tigers. Great effort for their captain and the cherry on top they're now ........ 9th. 😆

Credit also to the size of the crowd that turned up taking into consideration the weather

    Suns have improved a lot this season. I expect them to beat Carlton today and have a good crack at getting into the 8. Would be great to see them make finals (I've lambasted them for a long time, but they are finally showing some ticker). Would be magnificent if they made finals at the expense of Essendon.

    So far this weekend the results have suited us putting a game distance to couple of teams that were breathing down our necks. I have seldon enjoyed two rounds of footy more than the last two rounds and we haven't played in one of them.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see the Tigers get up tonight. 

    No bigee.

    I am never surprised when any side gets up against StKilda.

    Were gifted a soft fixture  won a few games against flat teams and the media started talking about finals. Clueless knobs.

    Don't think there a bad side. Some very good talent but will be vying with a few to make the 8.

    Just noticed Port on top of the ladder. I had to go have a panadol.

    Their defence has no idea. Take a look at  highlights 1st qtr. Wouldn't be a single saints player that would be in our top six defenders.

    They have played one more game than the Pies so it could be an aberration.

    Shades of what is to come with 19 teams. Assuming they have the byes in blocks rather than one team each week and who knows what for the last five rounds the ladder positions will be a relative nightmare on a weekly basis.

    Would love to see Norff and Suns get up this arvo. Blueboyz damn lucky they're not playing "oop north" on the goldcoast under humid greasy conditions. Wouldnt back them in a fit.

    Not sure who I want to win.

    GC puts a game between them and freemantle while a Carlton win gets them within 2 points of freo and perhaps threaten to put them down another spot on the ladder later in the season.

    I'm going to ignore the permutations and barrack for a Carlton loss.

    Because it's Carlton and it's the right thing to do.

    Tx Debauched, yea they were poor. I also think with Salo back we have the best bline going about.

    I hate saying this and I feel dirty but I expect Carlton to win today. 

    Same here after 6 straight but they look poor.

    I said it last year but Levi Casboult would be perfect for our game style. Competes so well in the air.

    Probably keen to leave. Would be a great addition.

    I remember when we use to play in this time slot.. 

    The funny thing is that this timeslot usually gets the best commentator team, usually led by Huddo who by all rights should have Brian Taylor's job.

    • 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.
