Surprised the AFL haven't tried to create a rivalry game between the two expansion teams yet, a la GC and it's Frankenstein cousin Brisbane. How about the Plastic Fantastic?

Callum Brown would be nice inside our forward 50. Great kick and strong as an ox.


Such a soft 50 at a critical time

Giants should win from here

7 goals to 1 in the last Q

Suns still soft

Expect the Dogs will replace them in the 8 before long

 

Good lord, the worst non deliberate call of all time

Umps got the Giants home with some howlers in the last Q

such a pity in a cracking match

Why were GC$ wearing recycled WCE jumpers from the 1990s??

I think we've entered the "anyone but Collingwood" phase of the season

Collingwood are like Dees in 2022., Sydney in 2024. When you are the best team all year it turns ugly for you. Watch it unravel for them.

To be fair, the umpires looked after the Suns the whole game - 24 to 15 frees the Suns way.

I'm not watching a lot of other footy but Geez there seems to be a lot of very soft 50m penalties being dished out of late. Such gifts to teams and momentum killers to others.

Is it just me noticing this after the Dees got hammered the other week or does it seem to be on the rise?

the issue is they just call heaps over a couple of weeks and then dont call any for weeks after that, its just a massive cycle. either make calls consistently [censored] or good not in between and dont change throughout the season

An absolute shocker 'Dub'...there's no way in the world that shouldn't have been called.

Yet somehow 4 umpires couldn't make it.

i’ve noticed an increase in the past couple of weeks. 2-3 a game is normal

The one today which decided the game imo was a bloke running past around 10 yards away. did not influence the bloke with the ball at all. Ended in a goal

so frustrating

You know the umpiring is bad when you fall about laughing about the inconsistencies and errors favouring the team you are barracking for. When oh when is the AFL going to realise they are making a hash of the game.

And don't get me started on the ugly wrestling match to be seen at every ruck contest.

Gold Coast is going to be the side to miss the 8, right? A post-bye slump as per usual?

What an absolute fail it will be if they do miss from 8-2 with the list they have.

(Meanwhile I expect them to comfortably account for us on Saturday. They should be fired up knowing their finals spot is on the line).

still two games in hand over the other teams around them on the ladder - like gw$, who are only a win ahead of them on points

How exciting for dogs fans to attend every week to watch a key forward in Darcy who can also kick straight

he very well may be the player of his generation with the rate that he's going at

Nah, Collingwood are the AFL's official team these days.

Nothing wrong with a good spray occasionally.

Players are on Top Coin, if they are not playing to the Coaches instructions, then it’s fully deserved.

I wish Goodwin would let fly at times….

He have the players a bit of a cook at qtr time of Gather Round V Essendon. It was very mild but still animated by Goodwin’s standards.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
