Brendon Bolton speaks to his players during the game against Essendon.

Bolton brings exciting times to Carlton

In March, Carlton legend David Parkin labelled the Carlton 2016 playing list as worse than Essendon's cobbled together list of top ups they are fielding this year. 

Nick Riewoldt, a Saints great and getting better.

Riewoldt a legend who keeps getting better

 Nick Riewoldt won his first best and fairest at the St Kilda Football Club way back in 2002 at just 19 years old. It was  the first of six  medals at the Saints and now at 33 he just continues to amaze  with the lofty standards he continues to maintain. 

Down in the mouth: Dejected Magpies after Collingwood’s loss to Melbourne last Sunday.

Magpies players must take responsibility

Collingwood is on a hiding to nothing in tomorrow's Anzac Day clash against Essendon. If they win, I expect the general response to be, 'so they should'. If they lose, it will be a disaster for the club and Nathan Buckley. The repercussions could be massive.

The grand final loss left the Eagles dejected.

Can the Eagles smell Hawks' blood?

I will never forget the words  of the Brisbane Lions coach Leigh Matthews in the lead-up to Essendon's round 10 clash against the Queenslanders in 2001. "If it bleeds, we can kill it." It is a saying that the West Coast Eagles coach Adam Simpson must be pondering in advance of the grand final rematch against the Hawks.
