We finished 4th last year with 16 wins & 4 losses. Regardless if the Pies win, it’s still difficult for either of these teams to make top 4. Swans finished 8th with 12.5 wins and 10 losses.

Going early with that statement...

    They can't move the ball without Coleman. 

    The AFL can't allow teams to have breaks within 2 weeks of the season starting, its disjointing for the competition.

    You either play everyone opening round or scrap it all together.

    Completely agree about Coleman. He kept them in the granny last year and Brissy’s whole set up revolves around him. He’s a superstar that doesn’t get the credit he deserves. 
     

    And yeah the ‘opening’ round has played out poorly. Further compromises the season.

    Umm so is Daniher. Not too sure what Hipwood brings as a KPF, but he plays smaller than Spargo.

    Always seems to play his best games against us though

    Absolutely. I just didn’t want to name both in case the angry ghost of Norm Smith reads my outrageous comments. He sees these posts & makes these blokes play well against us 😁

    With the list that Lions have, Fagan looks to only have a plan A. Not sure he will get the ultimate success. 
    Hipwood reminds me of Schache

    Nup much worse

    Neither team will finish top 4.

    one of them will miss finals.

    Thanks Brisbane for ruining the best running joke of the season. Twitter/X was fun while the Pies were winless.

    The pies looked linke they go the rub of the green with the frees, but at least they put some effort in.  Lions were slow, stationary and putrid.

    Channel 7 asking Pendlebury in the post match interview about a ‘love tap’ on Neale is everything wrong with the AFL.

    Stop creating the narrative. They did it last year and it’s fundamentally wrong.

    It makes me hate the game.

    Fagan senile.. like half of his players, inept!! has Hipwood had a touch??? My 3 year old grandson goes harder than him!

    Picket, I find it helpful to understand your posts if I read them using the voice of Donald Trump. All of a sudden it explains a lot!

    Pies are a chance for finals if lucky

    Tough night to be a Lions fan.  Frustrating to watch the team play so bad, but oh my, the umpiring was next level atrocious.  Would ruin the long weekend.

    How is that Maynard tackle different from a sling tackle?

    It was Maynard, so it was deemed a “football action” 😬

    I find, when Selwood speaks, it has a laxative effect. 

    Oh that's interesting. I seem to have problems at the other end.

    It’s been a very strange night. BT calling posters as goals. Also saying this absolute trash game feels like a ‘finals game’? WTF?

     

    Umpiring was AWFUL. 
     

    The standard of the game was terrible by both teams. 
     

    Brisbane just played worse than Collingwood. 
     

    Joey Montagna saying Pendles punch was just a fine??

     

    Interviewing and asking a player about an incident they should be suspended for straight after a game?

     

    Referring to the incident as a ‘love tap?’

     

    The reality of what we just witnessed vs the way it’s characterised by commentators is worlds apart. 
     

    Painfully obvious tonight.

    • 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.
