What happened?

Can someone also please injure crisp

That's extremely concerning. I hope the mcc are having discussions with the head of security today. Not sure how that could be missed on the scanner

What scanner? When I've entered the G through the southern stand gates I've had someone look in the top of my open bag, and walked through a turnstile.

    you literally go through a scanner before you get to the turnstile

    it's meant to speed up the bag check process, but they clearly don't pick up someone with a weapon strapped to their leg

    In other Carlton news, the AFL has announced that they will be granted an additional mid-season pick if they lose next week.

    The Blues are said to be choosing between the two younger twin brothers of Nathan Fyfe so expect to hear a lot of talk about Owen Fyfe and Norton Fyfe.

    Seems the robot did it's part but the humans did not perhaps

    Yep wouldn’t be looking at either to solve our issues, not sure there is really anyone on there list that I’d honestly want outside there untouchables in Charlie, Weitering and TDK

    They were the 3 that I was thinking of - TDK will have some ridiculous offers if he hasn’t already. Curnow looks like he could still do it if they got the ball to him. Weitering is the only thing holding their defence together.

    Fire sale here we come.

    It's unbelievable taking guns into the ground, but loaded, that is just horrific.

    Any surprise in this State they are on bail?

    How did they get past the security machines?

    Let’s hope the Dees don’t get offered the same privilege. But if we find ourselves in that state, and if ladder positions stay as they currently are, we’ll get first choice. I think we should take Norton. Given the current state of the economy, we don’t want to go back to Owen.

    It was very difficult to try and explain to a couple of my Collingwood mates that by barracking for Carlton to lose did not mean that I was barracking for Collingwood.

    How many weeks for Sniper Houston?

    Anything less than 4 is a joke given the soft 3 weekers they are handing out

    Jeeeberz!!!!

    Footy Crowds in Australia are slowly catching up to the Northern Hemisphere standards

    That is a huge issue…..

    I don’t think so not compared to America

    N= 1 instances is an issue yes - root cause analysis please

    I think everyone would be safer if 95% of Collingwood fans were barred from games

    Let’s not pretend access to handguns is the norm

    Even having a long arm in the regions has become a major pita

    Are there metal detectors or en masse wanding in AfDanistan ?

    Apparently the metal detectors worked and the operator wasn’t paying attention.

    Human error.

    They should never work in security again

    when did detectors start at the G

    My last mcg game was 2010 pies dees (I moved to northern nsw in 2011)

    No detectors at Metricon

    How does Schultz win medal.

    The commentators are laughing.

    At least 6 better players on the ground, if not more.

    Pendles for example was more influential, with many more possessions.

    I've just clicked on the Suns v Crows games it's alarming how much our game had digressed in the last year.

    We have never been stone wall fit since the departure of Darren Burgess.

    Gut running from ANB and Hinge right toward the end of quarter time and linked up and precise kick into the forward line.

    Interesting to see what the crowd will be at the G today between Richmond and Brisbane. I know we can't talk but we've never really had the big fan base.

    Also watching the Suns v Crows game. How nice to see 2 teams move the ball quickly & open forward lines, oh and a forward that actually marks the footy.

    They won’t need detectors at Metricon for a long time – don’t think the pies actually travel that far north do they?

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
