Was this a portent of what was to befall the Swans tonight?

Usually they say on AFL site subbed out with injury if concussed. 

Doesn't say anything. But he was clearly unbalanced and his feet were buckling as he went off.

Would have to be concussed you would think, but it's Carlton.

They are following Ports handbook on Concussion Management.

Swans didnt kick straight enough  to win just like us


A Collingwood Carlton final next week would have been great. At least then one of them would have had to go. Unfortunately we stuffed up. Guess we'll just have to put them out.

Giants should comfortably beat the Saints

Saints are one of the worst finals teams i’ve seen

Tim Membray out for St Kilda today with an undisclosed illness. Sounds a bit more serious than a morning sniffle.

Saints can’t take a trick with their injuries either. Massive out.

is ‘personal health reasons’ code for a hangover?!

in all seriousness it sounds a lot worse than your average injury


If the Saints wanted to respect his privacy, all they need have said is 'he is not well and can't play'.  Instead they said:

"Membrey is currently receiving appropriate care and treatment due to a personal health matter," St Kilda said in a statement. 

"Tim's health and wellbeing is our primary concern and the club asks that Tim and the Membrey family's privacy is respected at this time."

I don't think the fact that apparently the AFL had to give special permission changes that.   If the AFL has a policy on when they are prepared to do that, it should be published and framed in a way that is so broad that it gives no extra fuel to speculation yet prevents club's from breaking the normal rules about selection.

I know I should follow the Saints but 4 some reason, I feel inclined to support Gws.

Jason Bennett is an interesting caller, because he calls the game. It’s just a shame he gets partnered with Darcy.

Actually  supporting Gws makes sense.

They are a far better chance of beating Lions or Port than St Kilda.


Nice to see the former Melbourne forward line kicking goals 😆

Beddy

pace pace pace Bedford 

Goal Bedford 

thanks Goody for ignoring Toby so much that he left the club 

clearly has pace and goal sense … but goody preferred Spargo ahead of Bedford (ffs)

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
