    Looks super fit and focused.

    Those sticky mitts really make a difference.

    Considering the good crowds they are getting in the nation's capital I wonder if it's worth moving the Giants down there full-time. Canberra Giants also sounds so much better that Greater Western Sydney. 

    Would have to name them the Frost Giants.

    Anyway, those good crowds are influenced a bit by a general scarcity of top-level football. Supporters of fifteen* other clubs will get along to see a game even if they don't care much for the competing clubs on the day.

    *do you really think anyone in Canberra would support Gold Coast?

    My partner just got back from the ‘G (bombers fan)

    She said she’s never going to the footy again, the Collingwood supporters were so disgusting. 

    She left her seat with 10 minutes to go because she genuinely felt threatened regardless if they won or lost.
     

    For context sake, we have a friend who works in the corporate functions team for the pies, so we occasionally get tickets among Pies supporters.

     

     

    Shocked! ....not really, this is but a sample of what's going to be on KB match.

    Or Canberra could become the 20th team?

    Still, if this game was played in western Sydney tonight they'd be lucky to get 4,000 people through the turnstiles. It would be great for a national competition to have Canberra join Tasmania in the competition.

    We dont have the talent pool to cover 18 teams, let alone 20.

    Merge the two AFL clubs in GWS and GC, relocate them to Canberra?

    Or just move the Giants there permanently then play 3 games in West Sydney.

    It would make more sense than Darwin but they've just mentioned on the broadcast that there are 6,000 GWS members in Canberra so it might be easier to grow that figure than ask the locals to switch teams.

    good game this. Lions should be ahead but inaccuracy hurting them.

    Anyone got a theory about what side winning this GWS/Brisbane game is better for the Dees?

    I think Giants win is better, as I think it makes it too hard for Brisbane.

    Allow me to continue with my obsession re commentators selectively calling certain players by their first + last names ...

    Harris Andrews, Harris Andrews, Harris Andrews ....

    As previously noted, they do it more with players with first names that are more like surnames. 

    Thank you for your interest.

    Exactly, just flip the current script. They can play Collingwood, Carlton and Richmond up there so the place looks half full for tv.

    Agree, HBT. If Brisbane lose tonight it is very tough for them to be top 4 at the end of the home and away season. And they won't win it without that advantage.

    Yep, for sure. Would be great to see the Lions drop out.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
