I hope Nibbler ‘turns it on’ on Saturday afternoon at the MCG.

He was a champion for our club who gave his all.

After 30 years of Cheating and giving the rest of the Competition the middle finger (“We are Carlton, F$&@ the Rest”) They are reaping the rewards of such behavior…

It's no coincidence that the flags dried up not long after the Salary Cap was introduced and they were no longer able to buy success.

May their misery and misfortune endure for at least another thirty years.

Good lord Rory Lobb with the pool cue look

Plenty of chalk

 

Not a great free kick awarded for the start of a game but it was against the Pies so it was a well umpired brilliant interpretation.

Gee you look back in the years and the Saints and the dogs were very unlucky not to make more grand finals. 

Between them they lost a few prelims


Anybody know what the explanation over the summer Richo was referring to with that Moore holding the ball was? 
 

Edit: apparently you’re supposed to try and kick the ball when tackled and if you miss, it’s not dropping the ball now? Did I hear that correctly from one of the commentators?

I think I got an answer?

The team abbreviations are a bit of a crack up tonight.

Q: How much interest do you have in this game?
A: FOO COL
 

Young Davidson for the Doggies looking quick and clean.

Jason dunstall explained it well. Darcy had his arm free so the umpire thinks he has a chance to get it on his boot to kick it away

Ok that makes sense, did he mention anything about dropping the ball? I may very well have misheard but I thought the channel 7 commentary said you won’t get pinged for dropping the ball in that circumstance. That you just have to make an attempt to kick it.

If Liberatore gets suspended for Pendlebury burying his head into his hip, I'll be so annoyed. Players need to show duty of care to themselves above all, and suspending players every time their opponents dangerously go to ground is not ever going to fix the problem of head high contact.

Found it! If you have no prior opportunity and you can *realistically* attempt to kick it away, you won’t get called dropping the ball if you miss the kick.

  • 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.
