That surface is ridiculously poor. Great match but that ground area is a disgrace.

Players slipping and falling over in that forward 50. It’s going to cause a bad knee injury soon !!!

    Logan Morris and now Joel Freijah

    Every week we’re being reminded of the second round picks we traded to move up and grab Tholstrup in 2023 😭

    (still love you Kolt)

    don’t forget about the dozen of 2nd round picks that are average players or barely play an AFL game

    We obviously don’t rate the odds of the second round in the draft. Whether a it’s bringing in Langdon or Hibberd or trading up for Kozzi or Kolt, overall we have more wins than losses (eg McAdam)

    Sydney win by 4 goals if they kick remotely straight.

    I agree it’s clear we don’t rate it but I reckon that’s been a problem the past few years and has left our depth exposed

    I reckon we had/have multiple areas of need that should have been identified and tried to be fixed with more picks from the draft, rather than moving up marginally or trading for NQRs like Billings, McAdam etc (I mean when was the last time we bought in a Hibberd or Langdon?)

    Reckon it’s just me but I don’t mind Papley. Gets in people’s faces and they fall for it. Love his energy and wish we had him

    Yeah. Sorry Dub. It might just be you.😀

    From a show of hands, most people I know just want to beat the little [censored] with a stick.

    Probably like most “agitators” in other teams, to be fair. They are great when they are playing in your team, otherwise not so much.

    What annoys me most about Papley is he was a Casey development player and we let him slip

    Anyone seeing him play underage footy at Bunyip could see he was going to make the big time

    Plus Grandson of a legend

    If the players association had any balls, they would at least stir the pot and try to get the matches moved due to the unsafe surface.

    well, clearly not seeing as he went so late in the rookie draft!

    he's a big time player that's for sure

    I’m a broken record I know but the umpiring favouritism for the Pies is so blatant .

    Umpires nice to let Nick Daicos know to get out of the 5 m exclusion zone as he ran right though it.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
