    Some personal news. 

    I wasn’t watching the game last night but was following along with the scores through the AFL app. I was barracking for the Crows to win all night until I checked my Footy Tipping app and realised that I was the only one in my mates competition that tipped the Bombers and a win would put me outright leader. 

    I felt so dirty cheering the Bombers on in the last few minutes, even crediting the umpires for the play on call the gifted the Bombers the win, that I needed to take a shower before going to sleep lest I sully my bed linen. 

    No shame in the occasional sullying of the bed linen Demonland.

    Lol surely at least one incorrect disposal in that stoppage against the filth?

    Port don’t have talent behind the ball. They’ve got size, but no natural footballers. Ratugolea, Aliir, Zerk-Thatcher - they all look like big blokes, and they can all do athletic things, but the basics allude them too often. Collingwood’s theory here is just bang it in and one of them will panic, and it’s working.

    There's no way the AFL are gonna allow the filth to sit in the bottom half of the ladder.  Umps over to you!

    Pies won by 11 goals last year against Port.

    At this rate they’ll give that margin a nudge today.

    Very poor by Port not to stem the bleeding.

    Port have too many one way runners, lazy midfielders who just want to look good dashing out of a pack.

    The irony of crows fans complaining about losing a game from a bad call should not be lost on Demon supporters.

    Glad I didn't go

    If there's one thing worse than a Magpie win it's a comeback win

    And a % comeback win.

    You've got to line up the ball..not just put a hand out and run past it.

    That's why Port are pretenders at the moment...

    The AFL has the downfield rule wrong. There’s an incentive to push a player in the back as they are kicking. It’s gives your defence time to set up.

    It makes no sense.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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.
