    Are we seeing the end of the Swans' run or are GCS very good.

    GCS certainly had the corridor game working in Q3

    Losing Armartey has really hurt the Swannettes, although they were playing well in the first half

    This is an incredible turnaround….

    This Swans-Suns game is becoming a worry.

    Swans may need some extra draft picks.

    And I don't like to be the bearer of bad news, but if Geelong and Hawthorn also win today, we're probably out of running for the top-4. 3 wins and percentage on at least two sides is a big ask.

    Top 8 still wide open, of course. ;)

    O’Sullivan for the Cats is going to be a superstar. Would be very handy in our backline.

    GCS look really fit and just continue to run and run in the last quarter which is very different to how we play in the last quarter.

    Tonight's game raised an interesting grammatical problem.

    "No Bontempelli; No Bulldogs."

    Is basically sound. Or at least accepted as a convention. But...

    "Yes Bontempelli; Yes Bulldogs."

    T'is a weird one.

    Nice on - I guess here "no" is being used as a determiner, as in "not any" or "absence of", not as an exclamation to denote a negative response. "Yes" is not the opposing determiner for no - instead we could go with something like

    "Absent Bont; absent Bulldogs"

    versus

    "Present Bont; present Bulldogs."

    He's a good player but I dislike Curnow. He's got peak "Carlton wannabe" vibes about him.

    Cats putting in their [censored] performance against Carlton of all clubs.

    Really interesting season. Apart from Pies and Lions, anyone can win or lose on any given day. More than any other season, pressure is playing an even bigger part on scoring. Blues looking very good, which I hate. Their pressure, defence, and 1%ers are top grade against the Cats today.

    Season is wide open still

    You only have to be 1% off

    Will Jeeelong come home strong?? They have in games so far this year

    Mathematically, "The Bulldogs" is a set contained within the set which is "The Bontempelli."

    The Venn diagram would be a smaller circle inside a larger circle.

    Realistically, there was only one way the Hawks would lose to the Eagles, and a start of 2.8 has briefly opened that door.

    I usually mute the commentary these days as I find it insufferable. Thought I’d listen to the Geelong Blues game today just for a change but seriously Dwayne Russell is just the worst. His stupid one line planned puns are so embarrassing. How does he still get a gig???? Back to my music I think.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • 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.
