Great start to the commentary by Quartermain:

"It's been a long time between drinks in September for these two sides."

Haven't Brisbane won 3 flags and appeared in four Grand finals this decade?

Happy for him that he doesn't follow the Dees or the Saints.

It has been 5 years for them. And 8 years for Carlton. Still a long time between drinks.

Yep. Spot on. It's been a whole 6 years since the last of Brisbane's 3 consecutive premierships. Makes the 45 years Melbourne has waited pale in comparison.

Great to see TJ take the kick for Browny and goal. Not saying we should have kept him, but miss him all the same. Go Roller!
Yes it was straight through the middle. Gee he could do with a shave. Has played a pretty handy 1st half and Black 17 possessions during the same period.

Great last quarter and well done Lions.

The Blues got everything they deserve. Good riddance. Could not think of a better finish to the season for them.

Will Judd be required to explain an unprovoked hand/fingers in Riscotelli's eyes when the Lions player was on the ground?

Trapper 2 goals after snap to keep lions in touch.

Was happy to see him in the finals and playing a good game.

Previous week Cometti (I think) described him as lookin like he just jumped up from under a pile of newspapers on a park bench.....

Karma is Daniel Rich kicking that miracle goal late in the game and the kick forward that led to the Bradshaw snap that came close to icing the game to Trapper's point that did ice the game.

At least they can go to to the VFL and watch Chris Yarran and Chris Johnson play for the Northern Bullants and wonder why they bypassed Rich and which idiot in recruiting confused Johnson with Johnstone!

Sling me a few hundred grand a year and make it my full time job and I will! It's not like he said it in the middle of the game without time to think about it; it was in his opening statements before the game. I don't hate the bloke or anything, just thought it was a stupid thing to say. I think I'm going to go back to the home-made am radio simulcast from now on.

Go Lions! Go Johnno! Stuff you Carlton!

Glad I'm not a Carlton supporter, you'd be absolutely shattered. Reminded me be a bit of the 2002 semi between Melbourne and Adelaide when the dees went down after being up by 20 points in the final term. Mind you I think that one was more shattering for us because of the way we had come back from 40 points down.

Makes next friday night a bit of a non-contest but I'll still be cheering the Lions and TJ on all the same.

I dont like Carlton and happy with the result.

Carlton have made the finals this year and are on target to potentially challenge in 2 to 3 years time. They have a few holes to fill in the their side though. And a couple of crucial LT injuries did not help them

Me too.

I was at a function last night with a lot of Carlstink supporters and watched the last 10 minutes with them.

I then started singing the Lions song and was not a popular person I can assure you. However, I loved it.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
