Freo v Crows should be interesting. hard to pick 

You’d imagine Freo get it done at home but these games are ones the Crows need to win if they make finals

 

Honestly, from what I can piece together without live coverage (ahhhh, Sydney life), it is a little embarrassing for Carlton to only be four/five goals up.

I stand by my theory that Carlton continue to be in weak form to start the season and that has been balanced by very, very good personal form from Harry McKay. 3 goals and 4 contested marks in each game, and already 3 goals and 3 contested marks to half time against North.

Voss and the Carlton planners would be absolutely thrilled to be clocking wins. That said... every Carlton opponent so far has remained winless this season. The Blues would want to get things working properly before they come up against opponents that aren't either in mental disarray, managing an awkward rebuild, or outright led by teenagers.

Just announced Pendlebury gets a fine

Well, precedent set, when we play the pies we’ll just dish out 22 fines. Ridiculous.

So in a critical period in an important match just put a couple of Ks on the table and belt an important star and double him up in pain. And don’t worry you won’t even give away a free downfield. Plenty of time to organise your defence. The AFL stinks

 

Curnow on Pink is just unfair. Charlie is built like a brick you-know-what, and Pink looks like any redhead you just pulled off the street. How's he going to compete?

The fix for a Carlton flag is so obviously on. The
AFL got their wish with the Pies last year. It’s Carlton’s turn this year 


Can we start a gofundme to pay for all the open handed punch fines we’ll dish out on Kings Birthday?

I’d happily contribute.

I hope 21 of those fines is for gut punching Maynard, and the other one for gut punching Cox 

What a joke the league has become

8 goals from frees and 50’s to Blues.

Sorry now 9 goals.

This is a world record.

The 5 year extension that Larkey signed last year must be feeling like a life sentence by now. 

The lack of pressure on the Carlton mids from North's mids is just embarrassing. Very much like a Melbourne game from c.2013 - I feel so happy we're not subjected to that any more.

North getting a shocking run from the Umps

But they are contributing by some very undiscipline play

When is the heat going to come on Clarkson?

Seriously, Neeld had much worse cattle at his disposal and he didn’t last 2 years. How long will this sociopath’s grace period be?

You feel for North fans. Their team is hot garbage but the umps aren't helping one bit.


This is unwatchable. As @Jaded No More said (above) it’s clearly Carlton’s turn for a premiership. It makes me sick that we can’t enjoy neutral matches like this. 

6 fifty-metre penalties now against North. At this point they should just go for the record.

I sure as hell dont

I definitely do. Hating on a club like North is one thing, but their fans, especially young fans, don’t deserve this.

It’s why the AFL for me has become unbearable to watch. If the Dees weren’t in it, I would’ve (and just about have) given it away years ago. It has become so business driven, and what is best for that business to succeed, that the football aspect has been neglected for some time now.

Grass roots local footy is so much purer and more enjoyable to witness. Go and get yourself a team to follow outside of the national/state leagues. It is way more fun to watch and be a part of. You feel like you’re part of a real community.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
