I can only ever cheer Carlton on if they're playing Collingwood. Barely. 

Yep. They have that certain untoward feeling about them. Hard to describe but you just know you have to hope they lose up until the one you mentioned. In my lifetime there's been no real rivalry with us except a small window of close wins courtesy of Kozzie and some Carlton sod. But the disdain is certainly strong. With Cwood there is a long history of hatred and harm.

1994 and 2000 finals comes to mind

Hawks are playing very well. 
young and confident 


I'm not barracking for a blues win. It's more a case I really do not want to see the hawks go 3-0. Their supporters arrogance is next level. I don't want to see them up and about.

 

Gunna watch the soccer.   Hope both of these sides lose

Commentary on fox is atrocious, it’s like a few drunks at a bar that won’t shutup and know nothing out the game

I am sort of interested in tonight's result, but both teams are so unappealing I reckon I will just glance at the scores from time to time. And as for listening to commentators gush over Curnow, Cripps, Ginnivan, the Temu-wizard etc.... no thanks.

Has anyone else noticed that the Advantage rule has changed interpretation?

it seems that simply all the players stopping and requesting clarity on the free is no longer a problem. As long as one of the team wants to take the advantage.

5–10 Seconds later, “Play on”, No problem.

Yea forgot about those. Well actually I had hypnosis performed to erase the 200 season permanently.

Blues were unlucky in both those seasons.

Not because we beat them but because 94 I think they were one of the better teams and went out in straight sets.

In 2000 urgghhhh, they were probably the only side close to beating Essendon.

Neither channel is appealing. The radio is not much better.
I accidentally hit the mute switch on the remote – and I’ve never been happier!!

Hawks are more than capable of playing the contested inside game, like a scrum where they then release out wide and just run.

Better to watch than our style unfortunately.


 

Australia lucky.   Penalty hit the post

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
