NON-MFC: Round 01

Featured Replies

McGovern loves a flop, still remember him trying to flop against melky couple of years ago.

 

Tigers losing it through abysmal ball use.

 

Oh Cripps that is an atrocious set shot kick from naff-all distance.


pretty sloppy display, should be closer but richmond lacking a lot of polish trying to finish off their work.

Definite lack of class all over the ground. A very B grade game with no real appeal, and few big exciting moments. If the Tigers stop making horrible decisions forward of centre, and clean up their ball use, the game becomes much more even. The Blues look good in transition but their forward play is dull.

 

This is the thursday night kick off to round 1?

Meanwhile Dogs v Giants is on at 1pm on Sat

horrible fixturing

This is the problem the AFL has now. It’s too beholden to the broadcasters data. So they know that a horrible Carlton or Essendon game will get big ratings numbers, regardless of how poor it is.

It’s starting to become diminishing returns though. There’s no growth in a consistently poor spectacle.

Carlton have 5 Thursday or Friday night games in the first 6 rounds. Last year they had a 1 win and 11 loss record against the top 10 teams. They are poor by any measure, yet they get served up, no matter how bad they are.


plenty of sweat and effort but very poor skills on show

Tom Lynch is worth a spot on the Olympic diving team

Lynch ruined the momentum

Yze should drop him for that

I'd love to drop Lynch. Can't stand the pr**k


Grilj is exciting to play, shame we didn’t go for him.

Certainly not suggesting our picks weren’t good picks but he’s great to watch. Fast and bold.

Imagine letting poor kicking see you lose a game against a team like Carlton..............sorry

2.10 this Q between the two teams

bottom 6 stuff


Tigers should be well in front, but the Blues are horrid. Surely neither of these 2 see finals in 2026.

Both Cripps and Lynch had opportunities to lead through example and both failed.

Watching 2 of the bottom 4 teams shocking

Lynch the momentum killer misses easy goals!

 

Broncos/Eels match is a beauty

Tigers/Blues tightened up scoring wise in the 2nd half

TV for footy, NRL laptop

Edit: Eels win after copping an absolute hiding last week from the Storm

Edited by Macca

How can the two rookies for each side be the highest ranked players (by fantasy) players on the field?

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • 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.
