That was a impressive win by the blues.

Collingwood were full strength.

Carlton were missing, McKay, Walsh, Cerra (2nd half), Kennedy.

But they had a 6 day break. A six day break! The nerve of the AFL😂

    Nice win... i told me lil storm cloud and son the Blues were a good chance all week with the Pies coming back from a rare away game (and a biggen at that)  plus a filthy lurgy floating about at their dirty lair.

    They just laughed and thought i was crazy.  Usually they're right of course!

    And on cue Brayshaw starts the interstate, 6 days break, wet night last week narrative 

    Personally, I'd like to hear more of it. The pies def looked gassed - understandable given the intensity od last week, travel and six day break.

    I reckon port will struggle to come up to, though luckily for them the crows are coming of a tough game and a six day break.

    You know what this means don't you, for the media... Carlton will join Collingwood, Port and maybe Brisbane as the only real premiership contenders. Geelong might sneak into some people's calculations.

    Meanwhile…the Jaws theme begins as another contender lurks beneath the waves.

    All good. Premierships are won in September

    Because Kosi and Melksham won us the game last year that basically killed the Blues finals chances

    Didn't they have allegedly have some flu ahead of their loss against us?

    They seem to have a bad habit of getting crook in the lead up to games where the oppo go super hard at them and apply huge pressure.

    Unlucky for them that's what finals footy is.

    Must have also struck them down in the lead up to their two high pressure finals they lost last year.

    Watching the Pies players continue with manic football in the last minute only confirms for me that they risk burning out before the end of September. I don’t care how fit they are, how they play and the number of games they’ve needed to play to the death, means they’ve spent a lot of energy to this point in the season.

    Pies have not a single injury. They have options to manage and rest. They didn’t.
    Cox a total liability and he can’t play with Cameron and McStay IMO. 

    As we know tho, wasting all your energy trying to claw wins from the jaws of defeat every week is physically and mentally taxing.

    Totally agree.

    And they are the hunted every single week.

    Howe up forward?

    They pushed him up forward in the 3rd Q 'bin'...it took Hodgey until nearly half way into the last Q to notice it.

    About the time he kicked his first goal.

    I've always said our expert comments people are the best in the business and really keep us informed.

    Collingwood's disposal was generally atrocious. A good sign of fatigue.

    But I know what shampoo Nick Daicos uses, so if that’s not information for you, I dunno what is.

    So I saw it from halfway through the final quarter. Moore got torn apart from Curnow, port supporters would be wondering how Elliott kicked that goal but misses directly in front tonight.

    A shame port couldn't knock them off last week & bring them right back.

    Anyway it's good they lost. Lets hope Sydney can do the same tomorrow to the bummers

    JB said they're coming off a 6 day break, they are coming back from Adelaide, not Perth or Darwin. it's a 30 minute flight.

    They were just outplayed tonight

    Lots of panic when their backs were one or two out with Curnow. He gets lots of free kicks.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
