Billing’s kicking is and always has been shizen

Some sessions with Tiger Woods’s Shrink will help.

    Same number of scoring shots 

    Bit like the last few years 

    yes yes this year’s sample is n=1 - hopefully not a portent of things to come (I might lose my mind)

    I always thought Bowza was a measured composed footballer, but how many times has he thrown it on the boot today with zero regard or spatial awareness??

    Has Jed Adams had a disposal?

    He’s had 4 times what Chandler has produced 😳

    How to fu the game umpires, call a free that doesn’t exist when all of our blokes are streaming forward because the obvious free was ignored!

    Not sure Max Viney’s tackling classes have done much unfortunately - we haven’t been able to stick tackles all day

    Bowey ain't best 22.

    Billings literally can't kick a goal to save his life. 

    Again, we get scored against too easily.

    It’s a practice game & hope Goodwin isn’t showing his hand entirely as we will do stuff all leaking 16 goals

    He’s not the player he was in year 1, a little muddled in the head still after a bad injury last year? Or from Steve May barking at our backline to chip it sideways and bomb it long for 3 years?

    Whatever it is he has to do better than this

    What in the world was Fritta thinking - in range, passes back to Billings - fails to score.

    Q4: Why would Fritter pass it to Billings???!!!

    Billings is possibly the worst finisher in the AFL! If he could actually finish off his work he'd be a decent player, he has no trouble finding the ball.

    22 behinds. It doesn’t really matter what your tactics are or what you do around the ground if you kick that many behinds. Make that 24

    • 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?
