Even when Channel 7 is talking about what Geelong has done well they paraphrase it by saying ‘which Collingwood have now stopped’.

Is their supporter base that huge that games can only be seen though their lens? It’s just weird.

    Collingwood got their game back in order that 2nd quarter.

    They set themselves up well off half back from the likes of Maynard, Quaynor, Noble who gave them great drive in waves.

    Game could go either way.

    220 pressure index for q2 by Pies. That is literally off the charts.

    Hard to seem them sustain that throughout the game.

    Unless they’ve been loading

    My guess is they got given a serve by Fly after yet another poor quarter and they relied. 
    They’re lucky they are playing a side that’s as cooked as yesterday’s dinner. They should absolutely run Geelong off the field in the second half. 

    They should.

    Yes the pies pressure was better that quarter, as was their run, but to my eye, they still didn't look to be running over the ground like they were pre bye. The cats lack of speed flattered them

    Even if they go on to win, it will be fascinating to see if the pies can really run out this game the way we have been in the last three games.

    The pies do not want anymore injuries that's for sure.

    Stop taking mushrooms and commentating BT

    Poor BT must have something deep in his past memory some association between mushrooms and bull 💩 … but can’t correlate properly, and doesn’t realize that he is speaking it.

    I agree. They’re playing a side that is old, hammered by injuries and generally very slow. 
    They are also getting really smashed in the ruck. Stanley is a horrible horrible ruckman and getting smashed by a very average ruckman in return.

    Terrible bounce advantaging Pies not called back.

    That’s the real reason they should be made to throw it up, they now just call it back when it goes outside the circle but that one was basically a clearance to collingwood - peanuts

    De Goey off again.  God I hope you’re really really hurt. I hate wishing injury on players. But you’re not a player, you’re a filthy piece of trash.

    The way the pies push up so high defensively just exposes them.time and time again.

    Imagine if Geelong had Hawkins and Rohan wasn’t subbed off.

    Can Geelong still make it if they lose?

    Love them to finish 9th

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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.

      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.
