Would have thought Lobb was a clear Careless-Medium-High and therefore 1 week. It doesn’t matter that it was a “football act”. I’ll be staggered if he doesn’t miss games.

Agree.

Will McCreery and Crisp be looked at for dangerous tackles, I think not.

    I reckon they'll give him three unfortunately.

    I was looking at the wrong table (the AFLQ one). It works out to either 5 or 6 activation points depending on if you think it’s “negligent” or “reckless”, which is 2 and 3 weeks respectively. Or 0 if it’s deemed “accidental” which I don’t rate - I think any act that injures someone should automatically activate some kind of grading. There’s no outcome that gives 1 week.

    What an overly complicated grading system. I like the AFLQ one better 😁

    I am getting sick of McCrae.

    Said Cox was punched in the face and got stitches and he was sure the player would come under MRO scrutiny. 

    He is now as annoying as Chris Scott.

    Wasn’t it a football action though Craig? Like your defender

    Why are The Croms wearing a RED Jumper today, when playing Essenthing??

    Andrew Dillon you really are a waste of space

    Lobb was surprisingly good in defence and his passing was amazing. Took on some difficult kicks and weighted them perfectly.

    Sam Darcy was amazing and made Darcy Moore look small and ineffective. If he kicked a bit straighter dogs would have won.

    Rest of the dogs weren’t all that impressive.

    Colonwood controlled the game well at the end. Fair bit of upside when Mihochek comes back and DeGoey finds form.

    If the club is persisting with this nonsense high half forward role for Fritta, then he should take a look at the way Ben Keays plays that role. Becoming borderline elite.

    Wow Essendon are so poor

    Not even running and tackling

    80pt hammering coming up 

    Absolute training run for the Crows

    Killing them so far. No reason Fritsch couldn’t play at that level, if he really wanted too

    Unrelated. Probably. 

     

    33 free kicks to 14 is shocking
 that’s essentially an extra player on the field.

    We don’t play to his strengths.

    Keays is good but a completely different player to Fritsch

    Keep Bailey up fwd as the loose man and finisher

    This might be a 100 point margin.

    Whatever weights program Thilthorpe has been put on, we need to copy it for Jefferson. He’s a monster.

    Essendon down by ten goals at 3/4 time is always a joy.

    It is starting to look like Adelaide have got their act together and are getting real results out of a forward line which has been 'talent and potential' for a few years. Conescutive 20+ goal games is notable no matter who the opponents are, and I don't think either of St Kilda or Essendon should be assumed to be just pushovers.

    It'll be up to a hard-defending side like us to work out Adelaide, contain their scoring and hit back as they fatigue. Could be important because at this stage Adelaide are looking very much finals-bound.

    Now is the time, he was certainly wasted last week

    Crows should be 4-0 with Gather round to come 

    Zero injuries and looking very fit

    Top 4 chance imo

    Was away so really didn’t bask in the slow death of Carlton fans yet again on Thursday night due to the dodgy reception, but gotta admit, really don’t give a [censored] about Essendon now as they have been [censored] and irrelevant for over 7500 days. My personal dream is to see that magical 10000 days, but can’t say I take a lot of joy seeing them like this.

    I just smile and nod at the hilarity and quickly move on nowadays. 

    Closer to pitying them rather than hate them. 

    Also, Adelaide conceding 100 isn’t good. Let’s see them against more seasoned and fancied sides.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
