NON-MFC: Round 02

Featured Replies

 

How good was the way they used Wanganeen-Milera as much as possible.  Watching him kick is like watching a Federer backhand or a Warnie leggie.  Skill and execution just sublime.    Not to the same extent, but I'd be keen to see McVee freed up a little bit to be getting that kick from the back half into the forward half.  But we seem to be trending in that direction anyhow.

Pity it has to be Brisbane.

Both 0-4 would be good to see...

...but I guess you can't have everything.

But taunting Brisbane fans that they've only beaten the bottom team would be a perfect two-flavoured ice cream.

Look at our 21 finals campaign. That's how it's done.

 

Not every club can hope to emulate the most potent 50 minutes of football in the history of the game.

I love that it isn't even hyperbole to say that.

Hah, I now genuinely have the Doom music in my head.

Sure the Pies had a bumper start to the season last year but they fell away at the end.

In reality they just snuck home with three iffy finals including the gf.

They beat us in a final by 7 points when we had an absolutely depleted fwd line and were a man down.

Just beat Gws by a point.

And we're lucky in the Gf with the soft advantage call and just snuck home again by a kick.

They were not a glorious flag team by any standard.

Look at our 21 finals campaign. That's how it's done.

Pies won't make top four and rightly so.

They're the second weakest premier of this century, only the Bulldogs of 2016 were weaker. Fact.

The pies won their 3 finals by a cumulative total of 12 points. That was with some extremely lucky umpiring decisions going their way. They started the season well but by the end they were a middle of the road team and were possibly the luckiest premiers in my lifetime. Zero chance of a "dynasty". Hopefully they crash and burn for the sake of all Australian society and the sport. Pathetic wretched scum.

pies flag - 56.32 attacking, 63.86 defending.

bulldogs 2016 - 59.83 attacking, 71.64 defending.

pies were officially kissed on the richard cranium last year. the dogs of 2016 would beat them 8/10 times.

Further, last year teams statistically had their worst scoring accuracy against the Pies. It was an uncanny stat that almost all teams worst goalkicking performance came against Collingwood.

 

We had the opposite problem as Freo, GWS, Carlton x2 and Collingwood beat us with superb accuracy last year despite the fact we had more scoring shots in all those games.

In the finals alone, the opposition kicked 20.13 to our 16.28

The umpiring standard was horrendous and it's the first time I enjoyed it.

And if any Pies fan should stumble upon this post.....

That goal from the boundary line ....the ball was definitely out of bounds.

That goal, was it from the Wayne Harmes flank ? Not Collingwood's lucky part of the ground 

A lot of potentially one sided games this weekend.

Crows v Cats probably the hardest on paper but of course upsets happen

I think Dogs Suns is an interesting game. Reckon Suns make the 8 this year…this game will be a good indicator.

i swam 2km before work and spent the whole time fantasizing about steven may cleaning up ma***rd.

Suns should have that easily. Dogs backline is woeful

And doing it in a way that makes it a football act.

Best I can come up with is a rainbow kick from May on the dog's head, setting him up for a kozzie knee. I say May as he never kicks Rainbows, we want Maynard to know.


David Kind now jumping on the saints as how ‘amazing were they last night’

 

Were the saints amazing??? I thought Collingwood were awful more than Saints were good. Lots of saints goals came from Collingwood players making BAD errors that other top teams aren’t going to make.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.
