ADELAIDE CROWS<\/p>\n
The equation was simple for the Crows \u2014 bounce back from their Showdown horror show, and stay in touch with the top four. And they started with a bang in Perth in stunning scenes. The Crows had four goals in less than nine minutes, sending West Coast into an early \u201csave the game mode\u201d, such was Adelaide\u2019s dominance. A three-goal run amid a 7-1 centre clearance burst helped the Crows get first use, with Eagles premiership winner Will Schofield telling Fox Footy Adelaide were simply \u201cdoing what they like\u201d. But that changed from quarter time as the match became a grind. They would kick nine more goals for the match – compared to West Coast\u2019s 10- to hold on for the much-needed win. The 41% efficiency inside 50 will need work if they are to compete against the top sides, managing just eight marks in the arc.<\/p>\n

Darcy Fogarty\u2019s rich vein of form has rolled on with another goal bag – this time his four came before half time. Izak Rankine (27 disposals, seven clearances and a goal) was a threat while skipper Jordan Dawson led from the front as always with 27 disposals, 760m+ gained, eight tackles and a goal. Lachlan McAndrew responded to last week’s touch up with 38 hitouts, five clearances and seven tackles.<\/p>\n

Toby Murray blew a golden opportunity in the goal square when the ball didn\u2019t sit up. Despite it being a three on one in that square, Murray couldn\u2019t regather the footy before Tom McCarthy rushed it through. Taylor Walker went goalless – against a side where he\u2019s averaging seven goals in the past three meetings.<\/p>\n

BRISBANE LIONS<\/p>\n
The reigning premiers were at their brutal best in an opening quarter blitz that silenced GMHBA Stadium on Thursday night. The Lions had seven goals to none inside the first 20 minutes of the clash – and it was a lead Geelong could never recover. Another eight goal haul – this time in the third quarter when the Cats were pressing, was enough to keep the home side at bay. Brisbane\u2019s 19 goals came from just 52 inside 50s – a remarkable efficiency that had sat at seven entries for seven goals early in the contest. The Lions cashed in on every opportunity, with 36 of the 43 points in the opening term coming off turnover. Despite losing the centre clearance count (-9), Brisbane put Geelong\u2019s backline to the sword by registering the highest score against the Cats (110 points) at the final change in 23 years.<\/p>\n
In the votes<\/p>\n
Will Ashcroft proved up to the task with 32 disposals, six clearances and more than 650m gained – but could have cashed in more with his 0.3. Lachie Neale shrugged off a second quarter head knock to finish with 28 touches – 13 of those contested. Kai Lohmann was every bit the showman with five goals from his eight kicks while Zac Bailey registered 20 disposals and three goals – including two before a number of Cats including Patrick Dangerfield and Jeremy Cameron had even touched it. Ty Gallop the backman is also growing in strength for the Lions.<\/p>\n
Room for improvement<\/p>\n
Charlie Cameron had two goals in the space of just over a minute of game time… but didn\u2019t add to that tally. The Lions also racked up 82 turnovers – when their season average sits at 68, and gave up 14 marks inside 50.<\/p>\n

CARLTON<\/p>\n
There was a late scare, but the Blues fended off Richmond\u2019s charge to continue its perfect 7-0 run under Josh Fraser. It was far from Carlton\u2019s best showing under the caretaker coach in a scrappy, winter clash at the MCG including the Tigers bursting out of the blocks with five goals in the first quarter. But Fraser\u2019s men wrestled the game back on their terms, in large due to their midfield supremacy, to lead them to yet another victory to sit 10th on the ladder.<\/p>\n
In the votes<\/p>\n
Arguably no Carlton player has personified the club\u2019s resurgence under Josh Fraser more than George Hewett, who was banished to the VFL by Michael Voss earlier this season. Hewett starred again with 26 disposals, nine tackles and two goals as the highest-rated player on the ground. He was well supported by Jagga Smith (29 disposals) in the midfield in one of the youngster\u2019s best AFL games.<\/p>\n
Room for improvement<\/p>\n
The Blues started slow out of the gates and didn\u2019t handle Richmond\u2019s pressure. Carlton also got belted in clearances (-12) in an uncharacteristic return where the club is typically so strong.<\/p>\n

COLLINGWOOD<\/p>\n
All of the talk out of the match has surrounded the fiery scenes involving Brayden Maynard and Ben Long and umpire contact. But it was also the Magpies\u2019 best win this season in a good old fashioned eight-point game against a fellow finals contender. They scored over 100 points for consecutive weeks and finally conquered the Suns after a couple of heartbreaking losses up north in their last two meetings. You could see how much it meant to Collingwood players afterwards in passionate celebrations and one of the stronger renditions of the song as consolidated a top 10 spot.<\/p>\n

Nick Daicos did the Nick Daicos thing again. The Pies superstar had 31 disposals, 12 score involvements and a goal to be the highest-rated player on the ground; playing with an added level of skill and composure to anyone else. Tim Membrey bagged three goals in one of his best games in black and white to lead their makeshift forward line, while Ed Allan nullified Noah Anderson and picked up 21 disposals of his own to go with seven tackles as one of several Pies youngsters that impressed.<\/p>\n
Room for improvement<\/p>\n
The Pies have a Darcy Cameron problem on their hands. The 30-year old ruckman that once looked All-Australian calibre has dropped off in 2026 and struggling to adapt to the new ruck rules, with Cameron well beaten by Ned Moyle. It comes after Cameron, the club\u2019s 2025 best and fairest winner, penned a three-year contract extension last year.<\/p>\n

ESSENDON<\/p>\n
Another horrific performance for the Bombers since Brad Scott\u2019s departure from Tullamarine. Sadly, it\u2019s impossible to say they\u2019ve hit rock bottom yet either. Their conceding of a 10-goal streak showed them close to their worst, before a stagnant second half at least prevented Sunday afternoon\u2019s defeat from entering triple figures. If you\u2019re glass-half-empty and wanted proof they haven\u2019t hit rock bottom… just look at this weekend\u2019s fixture \u2014 they travel to the Gabba to face the back-to-back reigning premiers, Brisbane.<\/p>\n

There absolutely won\u2019t be any Essendon players polling come Brownlow night, but Nate Caddy (12 disposals, three goals) managed to have six shots on goal from limited opportunity. Xavier Duursma (19 disposals, nine marks \u2014 two contested) was notable in the first three quarters, and while his placement at half-back still doesn\u2019t quite look natural, Zach Merrett\u2019s (28 disposals, seven tackles) pressure couldn\u2019t be questioned \u2014 highlighted by multiple chase-down efforts. <\/p>\n
Room for improvement<\/p>\n
Nothing new here: defensive efforts. They conceded 18 more inside 50s across the afternoon, and despite having 125 less disposals than the Saints, still had 13 more turnovers. Their clearance game improved in the second half, but there really isn\u2019t much to add on what has been a treacherous 2026 to date. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s much easier to say retrospectively, but Saturday afternoon\u2019s loss was probably the one the Dockers needed. It put an end to their extraordinary 14-game winning streak, and even though they would have left Canberra very disappointed, it was far from a horror show. GWS, spearheaded by a seven-goal, career-best haul from Jake Stringer, played their hearts out with their season on the line. A huge Thursday night clash with Sydney back on their home deck awaits them off a five-day break.<\/p>\n

It will be all about the Giants\u2019 star players in the nation\u2019s capital come Brownlow night, but in a promising takeaway, Karl Worner (29 disposals, 10 marks \u2014 five intercepts, eight rebound 50s, 691 metres gained) played arguably the best match of his 47-game career. Superstar Luke Jackson (12 disposals, 31 hitouts, three tackles inside 50, two goals) was monstrous early and was Fremantle\u2019s highest-rated player, while Caleb Serong (31 disposals \u2014 14 contested, six clearances, one goal assist) was busy through the middle of the ground.<\/p>\n
Room for improvement<\/p>\n
Justin Longmuir\u2019s side conceded 15 more inside 50s and 14 more clearances in an un-Docker-like performance, and were also soundly beaten in contested ball. Their record this year has been so good that we\u2019re happy to put this loss to the side, but if they lose again this week… we\u2019ll read into this far more.<\/p>\n

GEELONG<\/p>\n
If we were grading on the first term alone, Geelong would be getting a F. The Cats looked more like roadkill in that opening quarter as the Lions went on an eight goal blitz. Only a Patrick Dangerfield goal with the last kick of the quarter gave the side some hope. And while they mounted a \u201cMt Everest sized\u201d comeback to close within just one point early in the third, they then leaked 10 of the next 16 goals. A +9 centre clearance count helped the Cats to 69 inside 50s – but with an efficiency inside of just 45%, the home side were wasteful. Their backline leaked badly in scenes not seen for 23 years, as the Lions brought up 110 points by three quarter time. Overall, a tough night for the Cats despite their gallant fightback.<\/p>\n
In the votes<\/p>\n
Patrick Dangerfield was the spark. He kicked the Cats\u2019 first goal with the final kick of the first quarter and looked the man who could potentially carry the side to victory. Danger finished with 17 disposals, seven marks, six tackles and five goals. Max Holmes racked up more than 850m gained from his 30 touches – 16 of those contested for a team-high total. Connor O\u2019Sullivan continued to be a shining light in moments – despite the Cats backline being under siege.<\/p>\n
Room for improvement<\/p>\n
Jeremy Cameron had a night to forget. Despite 90% game time, the star could only manage four touches and looked clearly hampered by that broke arm issue suffered in last year\u2019s decider. Shannon Neale may have had eight score involvements, but went at just 54% efficiency with his disposals. Ollie Henry went goalless from his 10 touches, Zach Guthrie was quiet and Jack Henry was one of four Cats not to lay a tackle – including Cameron, Sam De Koning and Mark O\u2019Connor.<\/p>\n

GOLD COAST SUNS<\/p>\n
The Suns\u2019 free fall continued with a sixth-straight loss at the hands of Collingwood in a fiery grudge match, with Ben Long given a two-match ban for his hit on Brayden Maynard. The tempered scenes appeared to wake the Suns up in some ways as they played with more energy and passion than we\u2019ve seen in some time, but they couldn\u2019t finish the job. The fixture doesn\u2019t get any easier for Damien Hardwick\u2019s side ahead of a daunting trip to Adelaide Oval to face the Crows.<\/p>\n

Ned Moyle was Gold Coast\u2019s highest-rated player and clearly had the better of Darcy Cameron on the night. Touk Miller registered 28 touches and a game-high 10 tackles.

Three votes, Jake Stringer. The 32-year-old kicked a carer high seven goals from 14 disposals, and spearheaded the hosts\u2019 win all afternoon long.

HAWTHORN<\/p>\n
Surged home with a wet sail against Melbourne in Tasmania after a diabolical first half in one of the most bizarre games of footy you\u2019ll ever see. The Hawks were down by as much as 96 points, before kicking 12 of the last 14 goals – including 12 in a row – to make the final scoreline much more respectable. Launceston is usually such a happy hunting ground for the Hawks, but they played as poorly as we\u2019ve ever seen – at least for the majority of the game.<\/p>\n

Mabior Chol bagged five goals – all in the second half – to help pull back that final margin. Josh Ward cracked in hard as Hawthorn\u2019s best midfielder, while Blake Hardwick had 19 kicks from his 25 disposals at 92 per cent efficiency. It\u2019d be remiss to not give a shout out to Noah Mraz, who impressed on debut with 16 touches and 12 marks \u2014 six (!) of which were contested.<\/p>\n

Sure, the Demons took their foot off the pedal after leading Hawthorn by as much as 96 points in a bizarre late fade-out. But they were immense in a dominant first half rampage and beat the Hawks up as badly as we\u2019ve in recent memory. Melbourne\u2019s last two goals makes you feel slightly better about Hawthorn\u2019s 12-goal run, too. And zooming out, Steven King would take a 35-point win over Hawthorn every day of the week as his side climbed back into the top six.<\/p>\n

Max Gawn was dominant with 22 disposals (14 contested), 10 clearances and 31 hit-outs. Jacob van Rooyen (five goals from 24 touches) played one of his best games at AFL level, while Changkuoth Jiath (23 disposals, 607 metres gained) produced arguably his best game for the Demons.<\/p>\n
Room for improvement<\/p>\n
This one\u2019s obvious. The stretch between the third and fourth quarter when Hawthorn kicked 12-straight goals was unflattering for the Dees. Even if they\u2019d put the cue in the rack, good teams find a way to quell that sort of momentum.<\/p>\n

A loss to Port Adelaide dealt a blow to North Melbourne\u2019s finals hopes as the Roos now sit outside the top 10. The game didn\u2019t reach great heights in a low-scoring affair.

But that six-goal to one start was devastating – and it\u2019s the 13th time in 16 games they\u2019ve trailed at the first change. The Eagles managed just 44 inside 50s – 12 less than the Crows and ended up spanked in the middle of the ground with an 8-18 centre clearance count.
