Cats v Hawks prelim.... Should be a good match

Can't believe I want Geelong to win. Guess I despise Hawthorn even more. Please Brisbane beat either. Play like you did against the Dockers in Perth a few weeks ago. You looked like you had hit your premiership straps that evening.

    I have no time for either team, but I want Geelong to lose so that our new coach is freed up earlier. A week or so is more important to us than some extra GF experience.

    Brisbane’s experience and top end talent vs the suns elite young talent, health and stability but inexperience

    Hawks v Cats Prelim = ugh! Can't believe I have had to endure this season with the Dees struggling, only to have to face this. In terms of "barracking", I suppose I have to run with the Cats because Watson, Ginnivan and co are total tools, but if a Cats loss gets Steven King on deck at the Dees earlier, then I will take that.

    Tonight, definitely supporting the Suns. Although Hardwick is extremely unlikeable, the teams he coaches play great footy. With Lions injury list I can't see them winning.

    Hard to see Brisbane going much further with current key forwards like Morris, Gallup and possibly Day. Morris is good but can’t do it on his own.

    I'm just thinking of next week. If the Suns have to face the pies they'll wet themselves on the G & crumble with the pies crowd, noise & there lack of experience.

    At least Brisbane could put up a fight

    gc17 play the g very well - the balance of their side suits that size of ground

    i give them more a chance of pushing the filth next week than the walking wounded bears

    I used to like following the game day thread on Twitter but without fail it’s now just a stream of [censored] complaining about the pre-game welcome to county. It’s tedious

    Is anyone else having trouble with the kits being too similar, especially with the long range views?

    I asked ChatGPT.....I will summarise the answer as 'marketing'.

    Here’s what I found out about why the Gold Coast SUNS are wearing a pink guernsey recently:

    What’s going on

    • In 2025, the SUNS unveiled a predominantly pink guernsey as part of a new “Pink Collection”. (goldcoastfc.com.au)

    • The first time it was used was during the AFL’s Gather Round, in their match against North Melbourne. (Zero Hanger)

    • Since then they’ve worn it in several games (e.g. Round 13, Round 21, and a semi-final). (afl.com.au)

    Why pink?

    According to the club’s statements, there are a few reasons:

    1. Visual & branding statement: The club is embracing a more “bold”, “trailblazing” identity. They want to break from tradition and push boundaries with their look. (Zero Hanger)

    2. Connection to local imagery: The design is meant to pay tribute to the “quintessential pink skies of a Gold Coast sunrise”. That is, it reflects something distinctive about the Gold Coast environment. (goldcoastfc.com.au)

    3. Part of a rebranding: The pink guernsey is part of a bigger rebrand launched in late 2024, involving a new logo, new home and clash guernseys, updated club colours, etc. (Zero Hanger)

    If you like, I can show you some fan responses—some people love it, some think it’s too radical. Do you want to see those?

    Couldn’t care less whether pink or whatever. But I find it hard to distinguish the teams on TV

    Yeah GC’s pink clash jumper isn’t effective in this matchup.

    I’m a proponent of white clash jumpers for most clubs including ours. That’s when they’re at their most effective.

    The pink and grey is mint

    It super clashes with the lions though

    Visually very challenging

    Like Robin Williams in good morning Vietnam going into the jungle and clashing bit

    They should have been in their white tops

    Don't mind the salmon and grey kit but they really need to sort out the logo.

    The dark shorts GC has doesn’t help

    • Welcome to Demonland: Steven King

      The Melbourne Football Club has selected a new coach for the 2026 season appointing Geelong Football Club assistant coach Steven King to the head role.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
