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

  • Quote

    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!

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #42 Aidan Johnson

      The VFL premiership player was recruited from Werribee to alleviate Melbourne’s forward line woes and give a chop out in the ruck, but he managed only five senior matches in his first season at the club. At times, he was a dominant force at VFL level.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #44 Luker Kentfield

      An exciting young key forward, Kentfield was selected in the 2024 mid-season draft but has yet to make his AFL debut. He was sidelined by a severe bout of pneumonia over the summer, which consequently limited his pre-season. Upon his return a month into the season, he commenced in defence but ultimately impressed with his progress at Casey, particularly in the latter part of the season as a strong marking goal kicking forward.

    • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

      Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

      Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.
