Why we let Jordan go is beyond me 

You know very well that he chose to leave as a free agent.  We had no say in it.

Why you persist in peddling this "let him go" furphy is perplexing.

    He left because of chances so in effect we let him go

    I can’t see Yze surviving the next 2 years regardless of how good a coach he is. They haven’t hit bottom yet but it’s coming

    The expression "poison chalice" springs to mind.

    Can we rebrand the leftover merchandise from Ninthmond to Northmond?

    We wanted him to stay.  That's not letting him go.

    When a player is not getting a go regularly and has limited opportunity they all go to greener pastures and that was the case full stop no matter how you want to spin it.

    I'm looking at the Norf score and, regardless of the myriad of issues, they should not be this bad. There's a couple of players who do not give a stuff and in just about any other team would be dropped for lack of effort. Zurhaar plays like a bloke marking time until recruited by a big club. He's not alone. Pathetic.

    Gosh these 2 games are soooo 1 sided.

    Wonder how dimma is enjoying Darwin. Usually likes to complain about travelling. 

    These older Geelong players are going to tire easily in the Darwin weather next week

    Anyone bored with these games, checkout the southern lights. 

    Yep and the nrl didn't help me either. The storm got beaten. 

    I'm just watching the Darwin game wishing I could get some of their 29 degree weather

    North, Richmond and Suns are Essendon’s next three games.

    They’ll be top 2 soon. 

    We beat St Kilda, West Coast and North in rounds 8,9 and 10 in 2022 and then fell in a hole we haven’t yet quite fully extracted ourselves. Let’s hope same happens to them. .

    Losing Harmes, JJ and Gus in one season. They are 3 premiership players. And you wonder why our midfield has fallen off the face of this earth. 
     

    Yea a little dramatic… but point to be made. 

    Exactly this!!!

    Richmond have 4 flags to hang their hat on, but what in the sweet Jesus is happening at Norf? 
    I never thought I’d see someone be worse than us under Neeld, but I think they have us covered 😧

    Sydney will come back to the pack. Happens every year. They haven’t had too many hard games just yet. 

    Did you mean Essendon? Because Sydney is far and away the competition's number 1 seed right now, mainly because they have the league's best record against good sides.

    They've beaten the sides currently sitting 3rd, 4th, 5th and 8th, plus 9th and 10th.

    No other top 8 side has that many wins against fellow contenders, nor are any of them undefeated against fellow contenders.

    It's bizarre that Richmond beat the Swans.

    Gold coast play Geelong in Darwin next week and they're without Cameron and Hawkins.

    A loss there could see the cats fall as far as 7th at the end of next week.

    It is and it’s also a good reminder that these bottom clubs will win matches this year. Just got to make sure we don’t slip up against them.

    Feel a bit sorry for Yze but not for Richmond.

      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?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
