Really should have worked him into the Jackson trade a couple years ago. Perhaps we tried and were rebuffed. Think@Redleg was calling for it at the time.

We never asked.

    Has Luke Jackson won possession at all so far tonight? He's always buzzing around contests looking vaguely like he's doing something but never seems to actually impact the play.

    Was just about to say the same thing. 5 possessions half way through the second. Getting smashed when in the ruck. A much better player than that.

    Is it just me, or is Daicos going off because of an "injury" when his tagger is beating him a bit sus.

    Sadly that didn't age well.

    Still fairly pedestrian, but you are right 😎

    Granted his missed games due to suspension, but Houston is having a very ordinary year....

    Thankfully the POS isn't playing so I don't have to look at his ugly head.

    However Crisp is almost as bad.

    Dunno who the POS even is but Collingwood have no shortage of ugly mugs I'd rather not look at.
    Mason Cox at the top of the list.

    Longmuir has to be about on his last legs as coach of Freo, surely?

    With the list he has, they should be doing much better than their current output. Their game plan is worse than ours.

    Not too sure I’d be salivating over the prospect of bringing LJ back in a hurry either. Hasn’t done too much in his time over their and has stagnated badly, particularly for the $ he would be on.

    The Shockers are having a crack, but they are also hoping for something to happen rather than creating it

    Gosh freo are pathetic. Playing at home & can't even beat a Collingwood team that's resting a number of good players.

    If they were based in Melbourne, they'd be copping a lot more heat

    Yes, being very reactive and not proactive.

    The Pies work off the ball is off the charts. That’s why they’re in so many games.

    Good to see Freo have been closely copying the Mbourne strategy of bombing it mindlessly i50 to a opposition player.

    Imitation is the highest form of flattery!

    He seems to have plateaud since leaving us. And still rarely takes a clean one-grab mark

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
