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

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
