GRAND FINAL-WHO ARE YOU GOING FOR?

Yeah, that extra $30 a week in rent really requires a 10% pay concession, essentially $30,000 on a salary of $300,000. :ph34r:

Spare me. That's a grand total of $1560 more per year. If they decide to live in freaking Bondi and pay exorbinant prices for rent, that's their bloody problem! I imagine players in Victoria choosing to live in Lorne or Sorrento would face a similar situation.

    i will say this about the COLA.

    either you index all clubs according to location (ie its cheaper to live in adelaide than sydney therefore adelaide's cap is smaller)

    OR

    You have 1 uniform salary cap.

    I'll take the latter.

    Oh, but that doesn't work in the AFL's favour. The media were going bananas about the Swans here in Sydney. Every network were talking about them and Buddy all week, it's huge news. In fact, the pub right outside my apartment was filled to the brim with fans wearing Swans geurnseys, all watching the game with much excitement (until quarter time).

    Fact is, the AFL love this and will protect it at all costs. Don't think the Storm got as much love from Melburnites when they last made an NRL GF.

    After today I've come to the conclusion we will never win a flag.. It seriously feel like we play in a different competition.. When I picture grand final day I can never see us there.

    Pretty sure North supporters would feel the same. Not even close to what's required.

    Yes but you should also know you can't say that out loud. Shame on you

    Put a couple of stars in our team and watch how quickly things turn around.

    Like your confidence CB but I think it is way more than a couple required

    As is often the case PF weekend produced the best footy.

    The GF was a real let down.

    Congrats to Hawthorn who have been a great club over the past 4 decades.

    Premiers again however in reality very lucky to overcome Port, a side that we ran close on both occasions this year.

    Poor sides lose them in the main

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
