Can’t understand why TMac has been dropped for Lever & Sharp should always be a sub!!!!

Maybe Tmac has a giggle that we don't know about?

    Start watching the game late, just caught up to the broadcast.

    AJ - likely 1 week based upon the hit on Fargo the week before, not sure why he jumped though.

    Kossie first shot, - really worried it showed they weren't switch on as then the saints went on a super purple patch. But two marks up the top of the square by the saints in the 2nd must've Goodwin pull what hair he has left out. Really poor by the boys in defence.

    Back to 13 points, we look more in control but need less posters and more goals.

    The left seems to be much easier to score at, so we need to wn this qtr going into the last.

    137 disposals for the half for us seems characteristically low.

    I'm tellin' youse all somethin' most of you already know, Disco will be one of our best inside the next 12 months.

    Great one grab mark, beautiful kick, makes great decisions. I'd like to see him forward but that'll depend on who comes in - TMac, JvR and/or MJ.

    AJ certainly to miss next week so JvR will get the nod you'd expect.

    Ross is a very astute coach. He’s shut down Langdon and Bowey and we’ve lost all our drive and spread.

    You can add that he’s taken Windsor back to the square and Butler, who’s a smart forward, has kicked 3 from the goal square.

    We are missing Spargo’s pressure and tackling

    Max doesn't focus on the goals long enough. He looks down with just the odd glance at the sticks and then always misses. Simply needs to lift his head up. Small change.

    Reckon it's just plain psychology ATM as it is with a bunch of 'em.
    Same with Pickett and his rushed play on kicks.
    None are confident they'll kick straight.
    Little men in their heads telling them "You'll miss, you'll miss, you'll miss" .... And they do.

    That’s poor coaching from us. Windsor shouldn’t be sucked into the last line of defense. Ever.

    Salem should be on Butler.

    Not sure why people are having a crack at Healy’s commentary. He clearly thinks we are the better side and should win. Like us, I think he’s found our uneven effort after working so hard over the last month confounding. I agree with him.

    Shut up Healy.

    Talks out of his [censored]. Foxtel commendatory team add zero to footy viewing experience rather listen to Brian’s inanities.

    One at ground front of the camera. Shows Fox commitment.

    Again we can pop Kosi in the goal square and free him up. I would play him close to goal and break the tag.

    The problem is Turner has become our premier tall defender. Lever having a quiet one again. May a rusty first quarter. I'd love Disco fwd though.

    We had a very similar 2nd quarter last week, very inaccurate with a lot of inside 50s.

    We have had a very inaccurate forward line with loads of inside 50’s for the past 3 years

    great block there by lever.

    showing some good intent so far.

    A good 6-8 players might want to pull their finger out this half and do something.

    Again back to leaving too much up to too few.

    • 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.

      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?
