    Why do people who choose to sit in the front row get annoyed at players who topple over the fence and knock their drink out of their hand? It's one of the more stupid reactions by the human race you're likely to see.

    They beat Fremantle two weeks ago.

    They also have wins over Hawthorn (Round 1), the Dogs and GWS.

    But they've also had one of the biggest fixture leg ups we've ever seen, and botched it - they have not left Melbourne since 2 June, which was Round 12. It's now 16 August, and Round 23. They go to Brisbane next week, which means they didn't leave Melbourne for 12 weeks.

    12 weeks. No travel.

    And they're still going to miss the finals.

    (the other fixture leg up goes to St Kilda, who finish this season with their last 6 straight games, and 8 of their last 9 games post-bye, at Marvel Stadium, and are also not going to make finals).

    In fairness the odds of it happening are pretty low and as it was the very end of the game the bar would have been shut. I can feel his pain.

    Wonder if Goldstein will retire now.

    Like every other football forum, but I do get a laugh out of the bombers and blues losses.

    That would make it 7286 days for the Bombers which equates to 20 years since they won a final. The iPhone had just been released 😆

    Let’s hope for another 20 years.

    Smash the pathetic hacks, shatter their finals hope.


    I’ve seen three people in the crowd who I don’t know personally but I see them around where I live. Rough AF. They’re just as scary on TV as in real life. I once saw one of them riding a push bike hands-free with a slab under one arm and fish n chips under the other and a cigarette hanging outta her mouth. She must’ve lost her driver’s licence coz in my suburb that’s the only reason anyone over 18 rides a pushy. True story 

    I bet she wasn't wearing a helmet either and riding on a footpath. Typical your suburb Essendon supporter - what a disgrace 🙃

    • 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?

    • 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?
