be interesting to see if as much 'tunneling' attention is given to what toby greene just did to matt owies as has been given to bayley fritsch doing similar to tom stewart

 

GW$ have kicked 11 goals in the First Half.

Great to see Bedford & Hogan kicking goals! Had a chance to take Hogan back & keep Bedford…

got ben brown and a premiership instead

we prioritised chandler over bedford, and the former is probably winning our best and fairest at this point in time, and getting better and better all the time

Who honestly thinks Reid will stay put.

all indications suggest otherwise

the big q is who is going to offer him the juiciest deal and give meth coke what they need to prise him free

we're been in this position before, where a prince who was promised was selected at #1 and never truly looked committed to the cause

ain't fun

bedford and jj both left for more opportunity; chandler and sparrow were both ahead of them at the time, and chandler is still a superior player to bedford

we got second round picks for both, from memory, which enabled us to trade 'up' to get the likes of tholstrup etc.

they had contract offers with us but took the chance to go north to get more game time; it's worked in their favour, just as langdon leaving flagmantle for us worked in his and ours

swings, roundabouts

jj being able to leave as a free agent was galling and only possible as a result of the stupid afl's stupid rule changes (that have since been rescinded, i think) for delisted free agents, where the only reason we 'delisted' jj was because in those days you had to take a mandatory # of picks in the draft, but could 'retain' that player as a dfa on your own list

seriously one of the dumbest rule changes ever, that cooked us just like the change to nga selections hurt us (and the aints) after jamara went #1, which has since been rolled back, and everyone had a hissy fit about academy selections

I don’t think Dangerfield was entirely innocent either.

Essendon have our pick potentially 3-4 plus their own first.

If Allan goes do they get a compensation pick?

They might get 1,2?

Either team?

can we pin this post so that every moron who complains about us ‘getting rid’ of Jordon and Bedford can see it?

yes, if he leaves as a free agent, they will - most likely - get band 1 compensation

22 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

So potentially eagles will have

Pick 1 for finishing last

Pick 2 band 1 compo

Pick 3 our first pick via bombers for Reid

Pick 5/6 bombers first pick

So out of Hogans 9 marks which he subsequently booted 9 goals how many marks were big contested pack marks and how many were taken out on a lead.

This one is far worse, as Greene looked at Owies before tunnelling him and then Owies is completely upended, landing on his head. This was extremely dangerous. Greene could have pulled out.

Now the old boys are saying “what could Toby have done”? Pulled out for a start.

This is the difference in the media.

Fritta canned and people looking for a suspension and with Toby, trying to get him off.

 

Can see St Kilda being one of those sides that goes from missing the 8 to finishing top 4 either after round 24 or at the conclusion of the finals. They’ll win the majority of their games at Marvel and will pick up a bonus away win today. Could even beat GWS next week at a neutral venue.

Port are a bit like us at the moment. Severely low on confidence.

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • 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.
