As a side issue: today marks Jack Crisp’s 238th consecutive game. He’s now only seven games away from breaking Jimmy’s record. Time’s running out. Records are made to be broken etc. but the thought of that grub being the one to take the mantle makes me sick.

Someone needs to take him out (make it look like an accident 🤭). 

I've arranged it with the boys. Next week he goes down in the 'thoid'.

    God knows how good the Giants are. But one game under the belt compared to our none is a big advantage. Also they have a bye straight afterwards so they can throw themslves around even further knowing they have a long recovery time. Geez, it'll be good if we beat them!

    Media really do gargle the Pies something fierce. Just vomit inducing. 

    Apparently the Herald Sun sells way more copies if the Filth are mentioned on the front page

    Good grief he'd have to play on into 2026 to get there!

    *Why not play a full round and utilise the holiday Monday?  4 games is half-baked 

    Give the clubs/players another bye during the season (it's needed)

    This is so grim for Collingwood, and I love it.

    LLLLLURRVE THE SOUND OF THAT! They are soooooooo old that the club took out a bunch of pre paid funeral plans😙😇🤪🥳😎

    I have been saying for some time that the Pies will fall off a cliff with their age structure, hopefully I will finally be right 😁

    They only had a few flashes of the Collingwood of yesteryear and generally looked like a plodding lower mid table side and not a real contender.

    Only Round 1 but good to see a heavy loss to kick the season off.

    I took my son to Princes Park this morning for the open training session, watched the Pies in a 50+ point loss on TV this arvo and had a beer and a swim at the beach this evening. What an awesome day! (with a public holiday tomorrow) 😀

    … and Storm enjoyed a thumping win; their 23rd consecutive first-round win. Incredible. 💜

    Depends...

    GWS are defensively sound and didn't let them play their game. They took it away from them.

    How many other teams can do this?

    That will decide the season of the pies this year to my mind.

    They say when Collingwood is involved they sell more papers but that means more paper for the budgie cage bottom.

    Yes the pies looked bad but the Giants looked absolutely elite. Finn Callaghan looks superhuman out there (cough cough ASADA cough cough). 

    Not dancing on Collingwood's grave until I see us against the orange tsunami next week.

    They should have beaten the Swannettes in the GF last Season 

    44 points up against The Bears and they relaxed 1%
    If we can beat them next week it will be huge 

    We need to emphasise Speed and ball movement, constantly create options 

    That  is not our game plan LIve in hope

    I’m surprised the GWS forwards were able to tie their bootlaces before the game.
    Or maybe they’ve all got broken thumbs.

    Nice to see the pies lose and most players cramping.

    Let’s hope for a stinking hot day this weekend!

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
