    No, pagan played 143 games for North and South Melbourne. That was a brain fade by BT referring to Fagan as Pagan…

    On the back of Daisy Thomas being referring to as Daisy Pearce at the start of the game

    Ashcroft has been impressive. Andrews was good when the Swans were trying to play early. But as others have said, Neale is likely to get the Norm Smith.

    Omg do u think BT could get ANYTHING right in his commentary. 

    He is like the weather reporters who say the wrong thing but still has a job. Unbelievable. 

    At  least he has stopped banging on about the wind and players aiming for the left post on every shot ..

    That would have gone down well. Was that BT? Also Daisy hasn't been on 7 all year

    “He never plays outside his capabilities.” These are the insights that have me still watching the game. 🤣

    I’d be amazed if someone ever played outside of what they were capable of 😁

    For Sydney to lose like this again tells me it’s an MCG thing. They can clog up their home ground and then keep contesting it forward. Sydney in this game clogged up the middle but left a Brisbane player or two last on defensive line and also offensive line. Same as Geelong and GWS last few weeks just kept kicking it to Starcevic. No numbers running forward all getting ready to defend midfield.

    Dang - how the hell did you end up with us sad sacks then? 🙃

    I've been watching the second half and getting that unnerving sense that this Brisbane side is player-by-player that little bit bigger and stronger than their opponents all over the ground.

    Hopefully that's just a reflection of Sydney's wilting performance because with even more goid F-S prospects coming and ongoing academy benefits, their list has plenty of renewal coming.

    Yep - despite them saying the ground is almost as big as the mcg now... it still is a postage stamp. The 50 (if it is legitimate these days) is still so close the smaller centre square. That ground and kardinia park belong in 16 a side vfa... they're not compatible with modern footy

    Ashcroft making a good run at it.

    He's the player they missed last year especially in those finals

    Amazing from the Lions to win the flag, given their poor start to the year and that they were down by 44 points against the Giants only 2 weeks ago.

    Delighted to see Conor McKenna get to play. No pressure on him in this game. He is the second player to do the double - Gaelic Football and Aussie Rules.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
