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.

    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.

    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: 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.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      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.
