Callum Brown with two goals, 1 behind, and one Maynard in the face. Good day out.

 

give him the 3 votes

 

 

I’ve never seen a player as injured or cramped as Diacos being asked to play on especially the game is over

Either manage his hydration in the first place or take him off

There is just no regeneration at the Glasshouse, they really are in for some pain.

We are in trouble next week.

Giants missing their 2 best players in Green and Hogan. Their ruckman goes down with concussion. Also missing Stringer Ricardi  etc

and they have walked all over the Pies

Fatigue in their first game being the reason is embarrassing and hilarious

Interesting to see how we go next week will be a good barometer … not watching the game today but are the conditions impacting or is GWS much better?

GWS have moved to 3rd favourite on Betfair.
$7 Hawthorn
$7.40 Brisbane
$7.60 GWS

Round 1 form is always overrated.  Get on the Dees for next week!

It’s always a good weekend when Collingwood lose

Running over the top of the Pies, fast movement out of stoppages, better ball movement, running defensively, defending as a unit.

We are pushing 💩 up a hill for next week.

Better start than last year

Watch the minute of play at about 8 minutes(of play) from the end. The run-down tackle on Membrey in the goal-square, followed by an end to end goal for GWS.

Story of the day.

Collingwood will make noises about fatigue (lol) and their kicking (their own fault - failure to get to good positions or create space and time for clean shots) but in the end GWS have been too fast, too skillful, and too energetic.

Could have been even worse but a couple of GWS tall forwards got the jitters with a few marks they should have taken.

I’ve clearly missed something, the Pies were so slick against the Tigers two weeks ago.

I could get a kick against the Tigers


Collingwood +20 contested possessions, +4 clearances, lost by 52 points. 

GWS keen to poke the ball to teammate rather than take possession

That is amazing!!

i watched the whole game, i would never have thought The Filth had more of the ball… and clearances 🫨

And 1 more inside 50s

Quick recap. 

Collingwood have traded their 2025 first round pick to Gold Coast.

If they're cooked, they're very, very cooked.

 

 


Just back from watching live

Collingwood look pretty slow - yeah it was hot but I think there are too many plodders to take on the likes of GWS or Hawks, Freo 

Really impressed by Finn OCallahan wow he can run

Sam Taylor is a gem 

Darcy Jones is a very handy small 

They will be a very good test for our boys next week make no mistake 

As for the pies I know it’s only opening round but I think they will struggle to play finals - their future doesn’t look that bright to me - hopefully I’m right 😀

I hear they are auctioning off the boot that smacked Maynard in the face

First bid, $10,000

Any coincidence GWS dominating the end of both quarters - superior fitness?

It eventually climaxed in the last quarter.

 

Admittedly I am not a high performance coach but I would have given Daics a Gatorade prior to game

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
