    Richmond home game at Marvel whilst Marvel tenant Carlton play a home game at the G. Marvel is where we'd be playing if we brought our Alice Springs game home.

    BT just mentioned that the crowd number at Marvel is impressive.

    Does he realise half the top level is closed and the other half isn’t even full?

    Woudn’t be much more than our 17K of last night.

    I’d be more than delighted if we played a home game at Marvel instead of Alice Springs.

    Carlton have been torched today. And looks like they'll be out of the 8 to boot.

    Great to see

    Looking at the fixture, the Hawks and Carlton will make finals. Unless a team with 14 wins doesn’t make it

    The Dogs could miss if they lose today

    Crazy tight

    We had zero chance even if we won last night

    If Carlton don’t make the finals, that’s gotta be one of the biggest chokes of all time. To miss with that list would be harder than making the finals.

    And get so many people keep bagging goody despite his valiant efforts with a list which, this season, has been decimated.

    Exactly this. 
    One of if not the best spine in the league. A graders on every line. 
    To not even make the 8, when their best players have been mostly healthy all season, is absolutely the worst underachievement of the season.

    I'd be happy to have an extra game I could attend too BBP. As most of our supporter base prefer to watch us on TV however perhaps it's better we pocket the $800k.

    Wow just saw the score.

    What the hell, gee hasn't mitchell turned hawthorn around.

    And what is scary is that if the Hawks get into the 8 they can go a long way. This is the greatest  “gap year” we have seen for years. There is hardly a team in the 8 this year that is in form and deserving of a premiership. They all have significant weaknesses. I thought Sydney were the real deal but they’ve dropped away, Carlton, Geelong, Port, Freo aren’t great sides. Maybe the Dogs have finally clicked and with Brisbane are genuine, inform contenders.

    Hawks will win their 2 games aginst tiges and North

    Carlton play Eagles next week. I don't fancy them to win that at all and especially if Curnow is injured. I don't know who falls out of the 8 so they get in. I reckon they're cooked.

    I only saw the last quarter and a bit EH but they were giving me Dees 1987 finals vibes as they couldn't do a thing wrong. Like when we steamrolled North and Sydney at the G in consecutive weeks.

    Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon to finish 9th, 10th & 11th. AFL might have to extend Wildcard Round to 12 teams.

    “Heptides” sounds like an STD and “idiocracy67” - well that just speaks for itself

    • GAMEDAY: Port Adelaide

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      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?
