Richo and Hodgy aren’t too bad. But [censored] me, the hyperbole from Brian Taylor and James “jeeeeeepers” Brayshaw is next level.

Collingwood look putrid 

Don't they always??

 

Swans are a proper team. Will be there or thereabouts this year.

what is he up too? 

This is consecutive game 216 for Crisp, so it would take this season and one more to pass Stynes.

 

BT barracking for in the commentary box is pure 🤢

And he's within half a season of Ooze.

Lovely to see the pies get pantsed on the night they unfurl the flag.


Do I have this correct

are Sydney taking the mark,  staying still rather than going back to take a quick kick, the opponents do not stand right on the mark.  Then the swans play on by walking around the Collingwood players 

 

did they do that to us as well. ??

Tired of reading comments like “this puts our loss last week into perspective”. 
How about instead we discuss how Sydney uses the footy going inside fwd 50 compared to us.

I think you could make the point how well Sydney use the ball all over the ground. They still have two excellent players to come back in as well. 

First to 100 wins

Gut running in support

Chasing down the ball carrier

Field kicking

Presenting up / multiple leads

Spread

Switching at the back

Patience and switching forward of the square when nothing's on offer inside 50

Eating up their full quota off the clock with set shots

All ground defensive work rate off the charts


Gulden's kicking really is a thing of beauty.

Pendlebury - 1 season too long.

Sydney - very good TEAM football. Contributors everywhere, running to help each other.

Mason Cox - wow that has been a terrible game of footy.

What on earth is in the water in Sydney. Playing out of their skin. Fantastic footy to watch, and couldn’t be against a better team.

They used the small ground well last week but are also spreading really effectively on the G too.

  • 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?
