    Honestly who cares? I think it’s crazy that in 2023 we still don’t have players who feel comfortable enough to be themselves. 
    Sad that there are likely dozens of AFL players who are hiding their sexuality for fear of not being accepted. 

    Would be surprised if there were, given the increase in acceptance.

    I know for a fact they don’t hide anything at club land. It’s just nobody comes out because why would you put yourself through the horror show you see aimed at indigenous or female athletes if you didn’t have to.

    She did say "The Orange team" one time during a Giants game.

    Yes

    She's employed for her voice... And what she uses it to say

    It's annoying 

    And she constantly tries to shoehorn in illfitting and awful sayings and colloquialisms that simply don't fit

    Back on the game; cheering for a team I despise is hard work.

    No we weren't comparing

    But you are delusional, she is terrible, kept mistaking Charile Cameron for Charlie Curnow a week or so ago 🤷‍♂️

    BT is miles ahead...

    Underwood's  voice, regardless of chromosomal makeup, is like fingernails on a blackboard and I for one just cannot listen. Also her obviously pre rehearsed attempts at humour are very "dad like".

    Just got home and tuned in. Saw cox on & though oohhh they have another injury. But it's only the new kid. I mean I feel terrible for him getting concussed do he'll miss next week but I was hoping for an Adams or Murphy, crisp or another good player

    Can’t wait for Kingy to say Pendlebury is the best centre clearance player in the comp this week.

    Like anything deeply rooted in our psyche, it takes generational change to see the outcomes for diversity and inclusion to really be a ‘thing that was’ - a bit like Covid. It was a period we passed thru that was tough but has accelerated us to get closer to the desired outcome. 
    So I agree it must be difficult for the current generation to be in a major transitioning stage of sexuality and identity, being accepted and feeling comfortable within societal norms.

    I still can't decide which team I want to lose?  What happens if it's a draw?

    It's Friday night and my brain is frazzled ... need wine

    And lets hope that stay that way. When we won in 21 I thought of him and had a chuckle. Couldn't stand it if he, cox and ginnivan won a premiership

    Pies can't drop below 2nd can they?  Even if they lose their last 2

    Port would need to gain a lot of percentage

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
