we can never trust them, you’ll be in the ED most weekends with them, I think the last time we faced port at home, they smashed us by three goals last year.

I’m crossing everything that could be today to see freo win today.

I’m not sure port can really be trusted either.

I think it’s safe to say whatever I did definitely worked today!

What a bunch of games today, two real arm wrestles!

dockers definitely have a good change of doing well to get into the finals, and then some, and thats coming from a Swans fan!

Sydney’s position on top of the ladder is looking shaky, despite being two games clear of Carlton. They have lost three of the past four games including this afternoon.

I know we have heard it before but last night on footy furnace it was stated the afl has told clubs next season will feature a wild car round involving clubs 8-12. I guess that would keep Collingwood, Adelaide and st Kilda right in the hunt if it was in this year.

Veteran umpire “Razor” Ray Chamberlain will retire at the end of this AFL season, as will field umpire Chris Donlon and boundary umpire Michael Saunders.

UPDATE 24/7: Also announcing his retirement from the game this season is boundary umpire Pat Cran who officiated 164 games, debuting in 2016.

Katy Perry was this morning confirmed as the headline act for pre match entertainment at this year’s AFL Grand Final.

Mixed reviews on the socials regarding the announcement. Some are saying the AFL should’ve got an Australian artist instead, others saying it’s great. Guess you can’t please everyone

My issue is that she’s the wrong artist in 2024.

In 2012? Sure, would’ve been a massive get. But her single has flopped and the album isn’t looking like it’ll do much better.

No, I don’t have an alternative suggestion.

As AA said, the fact they headline with songs from over a decade ago says a lot.

Is the Whitten Stand wooden seated?

The new agency will upgrade and increase the signage footprint at both stadiums by installing LED signage on level 3 of Marvel Stadium and both level 2A and level 4 at MCG. This will result in the MCG having four levels of LED signage across the Shane Warne Stand.

I think it has plastic seats, painted red, white and blue.

Should have been moulded as the colour. Will last longer.

I’ve always wondered why they haven’t had LED signage on those levels, especially since they are often left un-filled with the static signage.
