    Obviously dissent frees aren't paid these days. Or not against Jee-long in any event. Their players continually wave their arms around when perceived injustices are inflicted on them by the umpires.

    They've done it for years - worst offenders are Hawkins and Cameron - and I have never ever seen them pinged for it.

     Sorry, I forgot to mention Dangerfield....

    Geelong and Carlton seem never to get a 50 paid against for dissent, and it is often quite demonstrative and abusive.

    Harley reid argued every umpiring decision. Nil dissent. I miss the days where any raising of the arms was 50...

    If Geelong wins, I'll shout the bar if Chris Scott mentions that Richmond's set-shot kicking contributed.

    Uh-oh...

    Break it to me gently, those who can bear to watch...

    Pretty happy with that result, short of Richmond winning.

    I thought Geelong would go ahead us on percentage with a 12 goal + win, but Richmond put up a good fight.

    And let’s face it, are Geelong seriously going 2-0 against Sydney and Carlton both away.

    Third place is ours if we’re good enough tomorrow.

    If we’re as good as we’re meant to be, I actually expect us to go second after KBD because I think Essendon will lose today and next week.

    Mac Andrew is a star. Barring injury, he'll be the best tall back in the AFL within 12 months

    Cannot believe some on here thought he was not worth it in his draft year 🤷‍♂️

    GC up by 5 with 2 minutes remaining. If the footy gods have any compassion whatsoever we’ll be hearing that song that no one knows the words to. 😁

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
