Latest word around the traps is that next Saturday, both Ross Lyon and Brad Scott are going to rest all 22 players from this weekend's games.

I watched the Swans game with my Swans supporting sister. I witnessed Heath Grundy take a strong contested mark on the wing, turn inboard and kick it towards a stationary teammate in the middle, and h

Unless you have a very personal reason otherwise, surely everyone is hoping the Dogs pull off a miracle?

Eagles now showing a bit in the 3rd. Premiership quarter. Come On Eagles!

Shuey just blew any chance of a contest, oh now add Darling. Are the Dawks blessed?

Trying to decide if this years GF has been more or less entertaining then last year? Just boring. Well done to Hawthorn though.

Oh we had a 10 minute contest there in the third.

We need to acknowledge the elephant in the room - Chip has been great.

Chip has played well but really the way the ball hasn't been delivered to Kennedy it doesn't surprise me.

Both of them set the seal in the first quarter: when Shuey missed what he should have hand passed and Darling with his [censored]-weak shot at goal and his turnover. Then the same pox that plagued them last week against North - inaccuracy. Game over first quarter.

West Coast fielded Sydney's 2014 Grand Final team. Fell to bits as soon as Hawthorn got on a roll. I could have suffered a Hawthorn win if there'd been a contest, but it was just another boring game of footy. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Eagles came onto the ground looking beaten. Pathetic tiny banner. Hawks spread better, much faster. Nobody manning up on Cyril in the first 2/3 of the first half. Out coached out run outclassed. Why did we even bother to have a home and away season? Will the AFL actually do something to equalize he competition?

Gee it is embarrassing now, not even circle work intensity in a Grand Final! Great showpiece for the AFL.

lol @ listing the banner as one of the reasons for playing crap in the grand final.

Every commentator, coach, official and player, in other words every vested interest in the AFL has been saying all season how even it all is, any team can beat anyone at any time. Yes but somehow we keep seeing the same team smash their opponent in the GF year after year? It must be just a coincidence.

Can't wait for the GF to be held at night, for chrissake, watching professionals stare directly into the sun while balls hit them in the face or fall at their feet is simply ridiculous for what is supposed to be the showpiece of the season.

FFFUUUCKK you AFL, for allowing this Hawthorn dynasty to develop.

Gibson, Lake and Frawley, what an incredible day for the Hawk's tall defenders.

Between them -

70 disposals at 90%+ efficiency.

30 marks including 6 contested

25 1%ers

Just one free kick given away.

Only as an afterthought have I noticed all three were traded in, quite late in the building process.

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Megg

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.
