Not sure Yze will survive another wooden spoon season unless their board are honest about where they are at.  Max of 2 wins next year for the Tigers and maybe the year after. They haven't hit bottom yet

    Their supporters are very understanding of where they are at. It's best to bottom out now and collect a draft bounty. Wait too long, and Tassie will ruin your chances of a rebuild.

    This is the best possible time to bottom out.

    that’s what we thought in 2011. 😋

    good that their fans are on board but no way a coach can survive 3-4 years of being bottom. The next coach will take advantage of his good work

    Owies would be a fair trade for Doedee in Portuguese.

    Yes, Dees will help the Saints and take a future 4th round as trade.  Rather than dilute Saints free agent compo.  We are a nice club

    I hope you are joking, norm.  That should give us a better hand at trade if they want to keep the compo undiluted, maybe even a second rounder, for example, or he can go UFA and impact their compo pick……

    if they get him as a delisted free agent does that dilute their compensation for battle?

    Rioli for picks 6 and 20.

    When the Tiges were flying he struck me as about tenth in their best 22.

    Suns have so much draft capital it's scary

    A month ago this guy expressed frustration and eye rolled at questions about leaving, saying he was absolutely staying at WCE. Geez, would be nice of players to not blatantly lie about these things more often

    No way he goes close to that

    if pick 6 is involved, the Tigers will need to send pick 19 back the other way i reckon

    Just to be clear, the AFL stewards would not let JJ onto the field for the GF as Harmes' 'cramp' was not considered to be an injury

    However May had a hamstring tear so could and should have come off the ground once we were well in front

    True, but no way would May have gone off. Harmes offered but was not allowed. Was a selfless act by Harmsey.

    • 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?

    • 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.
