Point 2 ridiculous. Best player on field gets medal regardless of who wins. Crows supporters embarrassed themselves.

Footy Fix: The Blues looked set to go full Carlton again. This is how they didn't

Haha nope

Isn’t it upto clubs to organise their celebrations ? Why was this particular match chosen ?

The AFL dropped the ball with Hawthorn's centenary celebrations - the Hawks deserved far better

Blues badly lacking a McRae or Scott. Until then they are stuck in mediocrity.

Buckley was an awful coach but he still compares well to anyone the Blues have had this century sadly 😔

Footy Fix: The Pies are fast, furious, fearless and fantastically coached - everything Fremantle aren't

Maybe for the final stick with experience. After that it’s time for a refresh of the lineup if Marnus fails.

Not a great record against the Saints. That loss late last year that should have punted us out of finals stuck in the memory banks. Should be underdogs going into this game.

Two wrongs……

AFL News: Koch defends Rioli as more threats alleged, Dees president slams Oliver treatment, Port's mega Butters offer

AFL and clubs digging a big hole with double standards on behaviour which won’t help the cause. The what’s said on the field BS belongs to last century. Threats of physical harm on or off the field are totally unacceptable no matter who it comes from.

That looks pretty close to the mark. Still not sure about Gold Coast but they should never have been rated above 7 based on who they have and have not defeated yet.

AFL Power Rankings Round 8: It's been a great run for the Bulldogs ... but do they have enough bite to be a flag contender?

3 and 5 though. Need to be 5 and 3. I’m thinking we could end up 9th

Footy Fix: The Cats buried the Pies with four minutes of magic. Here's how Collingwood nearly beat them anyway

Too much guessing from umpires. If they don’t see it then the interpretation has to be that it hasn’t happened. No way that ball was touched and no way the umpire could have seen it as touched. Anyways sh.te happens. The best team over four quarters always wins in the end.

Great game and great respect for these two teams 👍

There’s no doubt Mitchell can coach.

Footy Fix: Freo, once again, are broken - and this time, it might just be coach-killing

Mitchell hasn’t been there that long though. Is it his 4th year this year ?

Footy Fix: Freo, once again, are broken - and this time, it might just be coach-killing

Concerns are likely but I don’t believe in mid season sackings. Mostly pointless unless the wheels have totally fallen off and clubs find themselves unexpectedly at the bottom of the ladder. Blues have been there a few times.

Footy Fix: Freo, once again, are broken - and this time, it might just be coach-killing

The Blues list has probably peaked which is concerning. Took too long to get there and may have ran out of time. A litany of poor coaches.

Footy Fix: Freo, once again, are broken - and this time, it might just be coach-killing

I think it’s based on a 6 year record not 2 games.

Footy Fix: Freo, once again, are broken - and this time, it might just be coach-killing

Too many clubs waiting for their coach to pull off a Hardwick. Has it happened more than once ? If they can’t get their team at least regularly into the finals in 5 years when is it likely to happen ?

How much time would be required for this job ? Does he sit there with a glass of red while watching a couple of replays on his iPad ? That’s what I do and I come to a better decision – I will apply 😛

AFL has lost the plot. The formulas are not working. Get rid of them.

So far they’ve played teams that collectively have won 11 out of 42 matches. Can’t be rated any higher than mid table on that record. Particularly losing to one of them very recently that is 2 from 7 with a percentage of 67.

AFL Power Rankings: Blues rise FOUR spots... but are they in the top eight?

Gold Coast have had the easiest of fixtures and their position is inflated both on the real ladder and in these rankings. Many losses to come.

Tigers were awesome in 1980 though. Absolutely smashed us in the Qualifying Final and I was there for that one as well. Witnessed the Percy and Jewell punch up. Percy couldn’t coach though so yeah. Hungry kicked seven goals I think and the Flea was on fire. We couldn’t recover and were smashed by the Pies the following week. Better coach in 82 though and of course the addition of Hunter, Buzz, and Woof Perovic and hitting form at the right time.
