What genius at HQ decided that it was a Saturday night blockbuster WCE v SS? I doubt the TV sponsors would be too happy.

    Yep, awful scheduling. In such a competitive industry, why give your rivals a leg up? Even GWS vs Saints would have been much better (tonight)

    Meanwhile, Spurs are now leading 2-nil at Man City!

    Friend has the GWS/Saints game on TV. Immediately left the room upon hearing Brereton’s voice.

    The king of word salad. He describes what happens during play as if everything was planned to happen in that particular way. The catch is, he never actually goes into detail about what teams are trying to achieve.

    Absolute brain dead “commentator”

    What is it with team that simply have to win.

    Those in the 10th-14th range have all demonstrated this round that they have all grossly underperformed this year. We won 11 games last year and finished 14th. We have 7 this year and finished...14th. Says a lot. I reckon the top 8 will look very different next year.

    I reckon she’s right. The Crows successfully argued that Rankine’s mental health was in a poor place and the AFL took a week off his suspension as a result. 2 days later he boards a plan to Europe for a holiday.

    It makes a mockery of what they told the AFL, including the support he needed.

    His last five minutes were ridiculous. Simply a captain who wouldn’t let his team lose.

    If Freo loses, you'll have to think their coach is gone this year. He cant get them into finals and always fade out in the second half.

    Freo have the best record against the top 9 teams - by a fair margin in some cases - and could miss finals

    I agree with you, although tbf I reckon my mental health would drastically improve with a week or two in Santorini…

    I already thought the AFL were being a bit too obvious and dodgy with their commercial favours to Essendon with the high profile fixtures, but rigging the Suns' game just so that next wednesday's match wouldn't be a total dead rubber is surely going too far.

    I actually had someone break up with me because their horrible mother insisted, so I think I'm even closer to the pin on the Jackson feelings!

    A very on brand Bevo pre finals choke performance today by the Dogs.

    Saw some vulnerabilities in their game when we played them the other week.

    Really hope Freo can keep this up. They're a bit of a reactive team so not sure if they'll continue on in the 3rd qtr.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
