    Dislike the Pies severely and think they copped the bum draw after losing last week to the Dogs by more than 24... Probably has cost them as I also believe they will struggle to beat the Crows next week. The Crows are a bloody good team. Dark horse for the flag?

    I agree, Toot. It will be hilarious when Adelaide knock them out. How much did Didak, Davis and Shaw crumble today? Adelaide are a big chance for the flag.

    Home ground advantage will play a big part in that semi final as well, not many teams win at skilled

    I thought through the year that the Pies weren't as good as they thought they were. They got to top 4 thanks to being extremely well-coached & well-drilled by Malthouse so that half the time they don't need to think where to kick it, but above all to an extremely favourable draw, without which they would have struggled to make the 8.

    They crumble under pressure (remember 2nd qtr QB against us?), and as soon as a decent team works out their game plan they have nothing left. They did OK not to get blown away by the Saints yesterday and by the Dogs in Rd 22, but both those sides had them well covered.

    I thought weeks ago that the Blues & Pies weren't good enough to win a final. Having said that, Adelaide might not be as invincible in Melbourne against a team that might pressure them a bit, but it would still be a surprise if the Pies beat them.

    Whilst I think Collingwood will beat Adelaide, it won't be easy, especially given that the Crows have 2 extra days rest in preparation. Plus their first final was physically less demanding than Collingwood's.

    Oh how I pray for Adelaide to beat them.

    the best bit is that after years and years of having a brilliant draw they get stooged by the afl and get a 6 day break to adelaides 8! i love it

    With their away record, they could probably claimed they've been stooged by the draw.

    Weren't stooged by the AFL, it was all their own work - what killed them was letting the Dogs get that last goal in Rd 22. That meant that they played the Saints instead of Geelong, they played on Sunday rather than Saturday, and they would play Adelaide rather than Brisbane or Carlton if they lost.

    Correct. Collingwood cannot cry foul about the draw (as unfair as it may seem, giving the 5th team 2 more days than the 4th team) when they had their fate in their own hands.

    I just hope it's a deciding factor in the result of the match.

    Looks very likely, the Crows have looked invincible for the past 2 weeks cementing me firmly on their bandwagon. I love aggressive attacking footy and not the "get a comfortable lead, then play keepings off" crap. GO CROWS!!

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
