Can anyone tell me why he wears a black sleeve on his left arm? Have I missed something?

it’s a compression sleeve. 

think he is better now and it is a bit of a signature like MJ’s one glove.

On AFL360 he said it was to give a little bit of protection to the arm and the scarring caused by a serious post-op infection. Probably helps him mentally as well given the serious nature of the break and the wound suffered.  Impressive by him to come back as he has.

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 

Have you tried to catch a domestic flight lately? I reckon you’d spend 3 hours on a plane to fly from tulla to Essendon !

I thought the Pies were slightly off their game from the first bounce.

Sidebottom was moving like a glacier.

And De Goooooey, terrible disposal and couldn't break the tackle of an auskicker

Are they tiring? There last 3 rounds are tough games. Hopefully they cop a few injuries and get bundled out in straight sets…..the only thing better than that is us winning the flag. In fact the trifecta is the Pies going out, us winning and then getting Harley Reid. Can you imagine the celebrations? I mean seriously, that’s a life changing chain of events. Anything after that is of little consequence.

So, can I be first to declare the opening of Colliwobble season?

Bit early this year, but climate change is messing up all of these natural cycles.

the Pies are winning based on system. They have some average players out there. 

How good was it to see Cox crack the naannies on the bench?

Moore 8 clangers!

Do frees against count as clangers? Moore gave away a few frees in the last.

C'mon man.
They were on fire early.
Marking everything in the F50 and kicked 2.2 before Carlton scored.

Also got a few doggy frees which helped. UMPIRE ALERT. Watch for #23. Some weird interpretations.

I really don't want Power to win the minor premiership. 

Were Pies fatigued last night or are Carlton a good side. Was their Power win legit or did Power rest too many players?

They have had some soft opposition of late but they did look good last night. They have a good run home from here too.

No chance port will finish top.  

Tough game tonight, cats at kp next week.

Easy last three games, but they are effectively 3 games behind the pies - 8 points plus 20 odd percentage. 

Even if they don't lose another game, pies would have to drop 3 of their last 4 games.

Don't think it will be a tough game for them tonite. No Rankine or Roshellli for the crows is a huge loss.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.
