Sooo “Opening round” is essentially “Roger rugby round”..?

Are we that insecure/desperate at AFL HQ?

    I heard the interview with the new AFL CEO this morning. 
    it was so boring and predictable. 
    The AFL Fixture will be exploited as much as possible to squeeze every cent out of the game

    This Round Zero is quite pathetic really. 
    All Clubs should play the first round

    Tough first round for the blues having to play the lions at the gabba at night without weitering and Walsh.

    Gws v pies will be good.

    ( Only from an injury perspective).

    This is the tip I am having trouble with.

    GWS V PIES should be moved to melbourne just to have them play in 40oC

  • Quote

    Based on preseason form and injury profile of both teams I predict lions will pump Carlton. Could be 50 points. 

    Hoping gws beat the pies.

    don’t care about suns and tiges.

    Lions, tigers and GWS.

  • Quote

    I’ve picked us plus all the other home teams. GWS robbed in that prelim, can’t happen twice in a row and without (I’m guesssing) the same levels of crowd noise influencing the umpiring.

    Honestly don't think I'll be watching the other games. Just not ready for footy yet, not with the sun we got coming up anyway.

    But Lions, Suns, Pies

    Most closely I'll be watching to see if the Blues suffer the same sort of fade out as our blokes tonight. The Gabba this time of year could be ugly.

    My friend who I work with who barracks for Collingwood, says to me last week we are the reigning premiers how come we have to play interstate r1.

    I turned around and said to her the afl are trying to get into nrl territory & I don't think you should be complaining about having to travel interstate

    Interested to see how the blues play if it’s slippery conditions. Will at least feel a bit better if they can’t handle it either. 
     

    Will be watching how both teams enter F50 with great interest.

    Expect Carlton to wilt late. Northern home games until late April are gift wins. Season should start later.

    A Blues belting will help to cheer me up. 50+ points would be nice.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.

      It's finally Game Day and the Demons, under new head coach Steven King, will run out onto the field with a new looking lineup and a brand new midfield when they take on the Kangaroos this afternoon at Casey.

    • TRAINING: Wednesday 18th February 2026

      A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers were blessed with some beautiful Wednesday morning weather to give their observations of one of the final open training session at Gosch's Paddock prior to our first practice hit out against another team this weekend.
