    Review Preliminary Final, 2025 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    Time to pass the hat around folks! Zorks got fined $5K for pulling off Cox’s goggles. Reduced to $3,125 with early plea. Money well spent…

    I think L2 are generally considered the best seats. I would prefer L1 over front of L4. Front of L4 does have a good overall view, but i have trouble identifying players from so far up and find I look to the screen a lot more. L1 i can identify all the players, can hear the footy being played...

    This is how MCC ballot is allocated - L2, L1, L4. We had L2 last year, under the big scoreboard at city centre end (1 row behind Aker!). Great seats, even though Aker thought he owned the bay. 😂

    I would expect no less from our boys if the roles were reversed. The umpire was right on the spot watching and had just called Cal to be careful. Levi the comes in from the left and crosses the mark. No issue with Naicos calling it out.

    Just watched the 100 meter on replay 5 times. 2nd 50 was paid against Levi for crossing the mark to cover Naicos. Bit of a lack of awareness from Levi.

    Just watching the replay. 2nd quarter, Berry just did his shoulder & Pies just hit the front. I’m ashamed to admit that about this stage last night I turned to my dad and said “i’m almost rather see it end tonight than scrape a win and pay $1900 to see us demolished by Geelong next week…”...

    Review Preliminary Final, 2025 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    Watching the replay now, but from my recollection the first 50 was Motty kicking the ball after the free was given, the second was Cal running around the back of the ball carrier, probably classed as entering the protected zone.

    Review Preliminary Final, 2025 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    there is no front on contact rule in a marking contest. There is a rule when the player has their head over the ball. There is a rule about prohibited contact or blocking or unduly rough contact. It’s a 360degree game. Purely making contact with another player from front on if it is not...

    Review Preliminary Final, 2025 - Collingwood vs. Brisbane Lions

    This is so unnecessary. Day was brought in to do a job, and for mine he largely did it. He enabled Gallop to develop a bit in the reserves before getting his chance. He provided that backup ruck we needed when Oscar was suffering. Bask in the glory the fact we’re here. No need to dump on those...

    $1906 out of my Amex, which should be 2A+2C. …and now to have a well earned break watching a replay of last night’s glory!

    David Schwarz taking down Ralphy on SEN this morning. The Ox said it wasn’t a free. 😂 Edit: I hope the AFL come out and say nothing on this. Move on, nothing to see here.

    i don’t think Daicos is over-rated. He’s a bloody good footballer. The problem is there’s not enough good footballers around him in that team.

    Whatever. Winners are grinners! Even McRrae said they probably still wouldn’t have won. Dunstall said on rewatch he didn’t think it was a free. Browney made made Ralph rewatch it and see his words were bullshit.

    Unofficial Preview Preliminary Final: Lions v Pies - 5.15 Saturday 20 September

    That’s been the story of our season. The optimist in me says Collingwood got to the prelim by beating Adelaide who finished top of the ladder on account of having the 16th easiest fixture in the comp. The pessimist in me says we got to the prelim by smashing Gold Coast who played their GF the...

    Word on street is Melbourne are willing to cover some of the cost of band-2 care, if you agree to share a room with Steven May.

    The difference in the GF is Rayner can deck him without risking his premiership medal… only risks a longer off-season.

    Players Association won’t like it because it restricts the number of suiters for their players, which reduces the $’s that they can earn or their opportunity to move for success. They won’t give up what they have now unless they get back something in return.

    If we win this weekend, and Lachie can train all through next week then he is a strong chance to get selected. if he wins another premiership medal and has 4 months recovery while the calf he further injured by playing through the pain in the GF, he will have no regrets!

    So they're not as free as they are now. Now they just have to pay cash. Under the proposal they have to pay cash AND draft picks. Draft picks are a currency in this game. Oscar Allen wants to come to Brisbane. If Brisbane need to give up the equivalent of pick-2 to get him then they're not...

    Then it’s not a free agent, it’s a forced trade. Players Association won’t go for it because it will influence which club their members can go to.

    The only thing wrong with that headline is it should say: AFL trade news: St Kilda, Geelong, Adelaide, Essendon, Carlton, Collingwood, Fremantle, Gold Coast, GWS, Hawthorn, Melbourne, North Melbourne, Port Adelaide, Richmond, Sydney, West Coast, Western Bulldogs among clubs chasing Hugh McCluggage

    I heard the same. Language may have changed based on likelihood of Geelong being able to get a deal done, and no desire to get to another Melbourne club.

    I’m 100% with you on this. We were all die-hard Fitzroy supporters (dad and 4 boys). I’m the only one who stuck with the Brisbane Lions. I wouldn’t wish what happened to Fitzroy to happen to anyone. …but this is all territory that has been covered before so no need to rehash further on the eve...

    I don't really see how it makes much of a difference. Players who are signing for money can already command bigger contracts at lower ranked clubs, because the lower ranked clubs aren't paying 100% TPP. Players looking for success will sign for less money to go to top clubs regardless...
