making some mistakes but their effort is good

Dogs have a number of huge outs. They probably should be winning games like this by now

    I’m guessing Bailey Williams and Bailey Scott are non-contenders??

    Bailey Scott going well and among the best for his side, but Bailey Dale brought laser sights and his own motorbike today.

    Bailey Williams nothing to be thrilled about on the day. But that just shows that while not every Bailey is a champion, every champion is a Bailey.

    Horrific

    Archer lucky not to break his leg too

    Yeah he was reckless; but at full speed whether it was accidental or intentional is debatable.

    Port are looking bottom 4 considering most would think the Pies are a bottom 10 side.

    Who thinks the pies are bottom 10? They're totally stacked on most lines. Houston a complete game changer

    Exactly. They could easily finish top 2 and it’s surreal (in a bad way) to think we were in the early running for Houston.

    He was ours until the media did their work to change things.

    he was ours until our season fell in a heap and our top pick become top 5 (prior to the academy and father-son selections)

    there was no way we were trading the pick that become langford for him

    Only hindsight will tell whether it was wise or not. Houston would absolutely help us win now and he'll probably help the Pies go quite close. 

    We still have our stars and the window with Gawn and May is closing, but I'm not sure the rest of our 22 is premiership quality anyway. Taking Langford could set us up to stay within striking distance in a few years time.

    Is there a club that covers for injuries better than Brisbane?

    And massive credit to the Dogs for winning given their state of injuries although for all we know North could once again be a bottom 2 side.

    You're joking right? Good teams don't get smashed like they did against an undermanned Giants side. Happy for you to bookmark this, but the Pies won't finish in the top 8. Last night was all about Port and nothing about Collingwood.

    On the Houston trade. no doubt the club wanted him but we would have to give up the Lindsay pick +. 

    I reckon XL will have a great career and although Houston is good, he is 10 years older than XL. 

    On the Pies, I predict them (and us) to rise significantly this year. At least top 6

    I’d be absolutely staggered if Collingwood miss the 8.

    I'd be far more staggered if they finished top 2. I certainly think they're closer to 9th than 2nd.

    It's all too common to read too much into Round 1 (even Rounds 2-4). But I'm with @At the break of Gawn in that I think last night was more about Port being awful than Collingwood being amazing.

    Great start for Nibbler and the Crows.

    St Kilda look horrid. Incredibly vanilla football side.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
