    AFL Autopsy RND 7: Done by the Magpies

    They obviously created more chances, and like I said, the dam wall absolutely broke, but in the first half it was a pretty even, scrappy affair both ways. The standard was pretty shit in the first half, I think even Collingwood supporters would agree. It doesn't change the result but on the...

    Recruiting AFL Trade & Free Agency XIII

    It's amazing how attractive you can become as a destination if you outwardly look like you have your pants on the right way and your coach isn't the world's biggest uninspiring charisma vacuum.

    Recruiting AFL Trade & Free Agency XIII

    Keeping Zach Merrett didn't actually preclude us from doing any of the above, it's just stuff we didn't elect to do. None of these things are massive misses, but there is no Merrett/Non Merrett dependency on any of this stuff. We had the list space and the draft capitol to go out and get Serong...

    AFL Player 32: Ben "Buckets" McKay

    He is quite clearly struggling but still giving it a crack but is he just a big, lumbering easy target? Each one of those rows represents a key defender this season, given the narrative, which one do we think he would be out of that list and more importantly, who do we think the other ones are?

    Analysis Why are we s**t?

    Losing to a pretty old and pretty average Collingwood side because Pendlebury cut us up while not getting out of a brisk walk is a pretty good microcosm. The period Collingwood manages to get their team 'up' is measured in months while the period we can stay up for is measured in quarters. At...

    Recruiting AFL Draft Watch 2026

    Josh Tovey from Port Melbourne would be my MSD pick of the bunch. Not really sure why he is not the talk of the town. He’s 20 so he’s a bit older but he is popping off at Port playing as a goalkicking big midfielder.

    Or wait a week or two because that mix dominated the much vaunted Suns midfield 8 days ago.

    Critical role player in a team that makes prelims every year?

    AFL Player 30: Nate Caddy - see picture on page 57 (NSFW) - 12/02

    Isn’t he doing, like, really well for a 20 year old key forward in a side averaging the least inside 50’s in the league? Reckon this is a classic example of the Essendon supporter base going into a doom spiral after a bad result.

    AFL Player 15: Dyson Sharp - back in the seniors - 23/4

    Reckon the only thing holding him back is his lack of affiliation with North Melbourne in the early 2010’s. A real pock mark for him.

    AFL Autopsy RND 7: Done by the Magpies

    This may not have been obvious if you were at the game, but watching on TV, it was quite clearly a skill gap, and then it probably got a bit out of control at the end when the intensity went out of it. Collingwood were just cleaner, it’s pretty simple. There were plenty of times where we either...

    AFL Player 45: Tom Edwards - Back with a vengeance - 28/3

    The set up has worked for the last 2 and a half games, I wouldn’t have changed anything. Moving him cost us a fair bit of spacing IMO. A valid gripe I reckon
