Not really. We end up in second on the ladder to finish the round while pick 4 from Freo is still in play.

Hey you're dead right! Thought we lost 2nd for a moment

    Brisbane celebrating like they just won a grand final. Embarrassing. 

    A great result. We are ahead of Brisbane AND Freo stuck in bottom 4. 
    Jackson embarrassing in that quarter. 

    Jackson played his heart out, entitled to show a little fatigue in the end. Embarrassing is not the right comment.

    He was soft. For a guy earning more than Gawn, he needed to do more.

    He did not go hard enough in a few critical contests in the last and fumbled at crucial times. He was very good early but he had a terrible last quarter. 
    He was also rucking against Daniher who is not a great ruckman. 
     

    I bet you scream for ANB to be dropped when he fumbles 🙄

    Coming of age performance really, gave Fort plenty to think about.

    A draft pick is a lottery. Look at Bowey and Laurie. One pick apart.

    Going a game clear of an interstate team in 2nd when we are massively in contention is worth a lot more than pick 4 vs pick 5.

    I think the Crows are a chance to knock off the Lions next week - Even though it’s at the Gabba, they are trying to get into the 8.

    No-one's arguing that.
    But 2nd spot is ours to keep ..... If we're good enough.

    The other thing to consider is if Collingwood lose two of the final three games. Both we and Brisbane could overtake them

    I would have preferred a Fremantle win today but there are 2 consolations: a better draft pick for Melbourne and a small winnning nargin for Brisbane (which might be meaningful in the push for 2nd position). 2.5 games clear of 5th and surely we'll win at least 1 of 3. We need to knock off Carlton next Saturday and finalise the Top 4 (if not their order)!

    Here's hoping. Would be the best thing ever.

    Daicos out for 6 weeks with a hairline fracture 

     

    Could have been worse. They might have ruled him out for 4 to 6 weeks and that would have been curtains for 2023.

    McRae's press conference was par for the course. He's always a little twitchy, it's just his way. You're all just looking for cracks way too hard. 

    Pies players were laughing on the bench with 30 seconds to go. This won't hurt them - I'm in zero doubt they're loading, for no other reason than they can afford to. Top spot is theirs. They know they've beaten anyone on their day and can win from 5 goals down consistently. 

    Sorry to burst the bubble, but they're absolutely primed and this loss is doing nothing other than enhancing their priming. 

    Will be beyond surprised if they don't make the grand final. 

    Is this satire?

    Have I missed talk of Match Review for the Blanck hit on N.Daicos? Late, front-on no eyes for the ball, caused serious injury - must get weeks IMHO.

    I thought the same thing ... to me the Hawthorn player deliberately took Daicos out and should have been cited for unduly rough play.  2-4 weeks penalty

    But because Daicos was contesting the mark, head contact was unlikely.  Are the AFL so head conscious that they let this incident go?  And are we going to see a glut of these sorts of incidents (if a player can get away with it)

    The other standout out feature of the weekend was West Coast not flooding back to protect a slender lead in the last couple of minutes of the game

    There's no truth in the rumour that certain members of the Eagles hierarchy went from ashen-faced to rosey-cheeked once the Bombers scored to gain the lead.  It's just another wacky conspiracy theory Sarcastic Joke GIF

    • 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.

    • 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?

    • 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.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
