I don't think I'll be able to handle this Collingwood love in commentary all night. Already over it 10 mins in

How happy was Markov getting a spoil on the ball there. Pies secret is happiness and playing for each other it seems. FMD.

    Moore’s kicking is his weakness. Force him long down the line and he often gives it back.

    True. but i still reckon he’s the best tall back in the game this year

    I have no idea why anyone thinks Collingwood are "far and away" the best side in the competition.

    2 of their 3 goals came directly from his poor kicking. I think Coaches like him deep and forced to kick. He’s a great mark, but the penetration in his kick is shallow.

    Collingwood being gifted free kicks - the umpires must be listening to the commentators who will not shut up about b****y Collingwood. The Blues have woken up and are playing a very similar game to how the Dees beat the Pies - giving up the run through the wing but clogging up half forward.

    LOL at watching all you guys having to barrack for Carlton. 🤣

    Carlton's entries are low, deep and to a contest, and it's making it very hard for Collingwood to cope with. Collingwood are stemming the potential damage though so far.

    The Blues are winning the contests though, and that's the key to winning.

    The lack of replays affirms the frees the umpires have missed. Hodgey calls out Quaynors throw but no replay. Would’ve been a shot on goal to Carlton.

    They are not very good at the contest the Pies. It’s why I think they won’t dominate finals like most people think they will.

    So one umpire decides it’s preseason and gives the Pies a 50 for a blues defender calmly pointing at the screen saying have look. Ump says you can’t point at the screen which is clearly not true as it happens every game

    Three 50’s to the Pies and it’s Q time

    Why? Surely we should hope they lose( and damage a few Pies)

    Remember when they said we played”bruise-free” footy?

    I hate 'em all.
    But Essendon and Collingwood are far and away at the top of the list.

    Without knowing anything about Mitch's character and making no corresponding observation, I would like to observe he looks much more like Butthead than our boy Fritsch!

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
