    Preview AFL 2026 Round 12 - Eagles v Bombers Sun May 31st 7:20pm AEST/5:20pm (OS)

    Im not copping this new coach bs, we should be pumping them if we continue this form.

    Let's dissect the greatest third quarter in history

    GWS had even more out, so not buying that, even if it was a factor.

    The game is mostly about energy management now, and even more about momentum

    Yep, that's why I get worried for a team if they're ahead but the other side has been lazy more often than not they make a late surge and often overrun them.

    Hawks forced out of Tassie - Where to next?

    There should be an old school suburban round where each home side hosts at their traditional home ground. Hawks could host at Glenferrie Oval.

    So how do we make umpires more accountable?

    Good idea. I wouldnt just trust to a human panel to adjusticate, but again an impartial panel with AI etc, where some objective metrics need to be met.

    News RIP Neale Daniher

    Even though it was coming for so long, Neale fought on to help fight MND, but also just to live life. What a legend of the game and wider community. Still hits hard, and I'm actually a little teary even if I didn't know him. There'll be added emotion at this year's Big Freeze.

    Let's dissect the greatest third quarter in history

    Please do so against Geelong, Hawthorn, Sydney, maybe Freo

    So how do we make umpires more accountable?

    Yes of course, its possible but harder. If Watson is jostling with Harris Andrews for a mark at the highest point than no, he hasn't much chance, unless he gets some separation or outbodies him, which is unlikely. Dont think many are. I hate seeing our players do it, even if it earns a free kick.

    All Eagles supporters should be expecting a decent win here.

    Carlton 2026 = wildcard smoky?

    I think they're a solidly average side, so 9-10, who have been held up by a terrible gameplan. If they're 8-3 now, let's split their last 12, 6-6. That makes 9-14, which will probably have them finishing about 12th.

    So how do we make umpires more accountable?

    Of course there are pros and cons, but being a small forward you learn to find space, get in position etc. Despite their size, they often outmark defenders by finding space or just a little bit of separation. Watson also has a bit of a leap, though not quite the Jamie Elliott level, though Jamie...

    Let's dissect the greatest third quarter in history

    GWS kicked 14.2.86 to 0.3 yesterday arvo against the 2 time reigning premier in the greatest one quarter onslaught I've seen in my footy watching life. Well, actually I didn't see it live, but just replayed that quarter. Like most I was stunned when I saw the final score of the game, but it's...

    So how do we make umpires more accountable?

    I think theres a lot of subjectivity in the rule to begin with. Its often not 100% clear if it was a deliberate duck. Like its often sort of deliberate. Especially shorter players like Watson or Dudley have an advantage in drawing high frees. Its almost impossible for a Max Gawn to cleanly...

    So how do we make umpires more accountable?

    Maybe a review system where we each rate them out of 5 lol. Heck, have that for players too. Paying supporters giving each players a rating each week. Drop too low and youre dropped lol.

    So how do we make umpires more accountable?

    What about ducking for fees etc?
