Top 4 is a joke. Three teams that have won something like 9 of the last 10 flags, plus the AFL's plastic frankenstein club.   Yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Not the first time I've said it. Thank God for Richmond.

You've got to love the AFL. They've really established an even competition.  And it just gets better again with Sydney and GWS having the pick of this years draft via their academies and Gold Coast ha

I want Saints to smash Lions to stop Bombers getting first pick and PSD, especially as Woosha just said he wants O'Meara. Getting him for free would be sickening.

Membrey marks 15 out, with Saints firing and Nick gives a way a free, reversal and Lions go to other end and goal.

Would have ended up quarter 5 goals up and well on way.

Come on Saints, smash them.

Have a field day Nick, please! Kick ten goals!

Frankly if Leppa wants anything positive to eventuate for Queensland football, he should lose this match enough to secure the wooden spoon. It will be a total injustice if Essendon get pick 1.

Lions making it hard for themselves.

Could argue a winning culture is more important but that would require players to turn up for 22 weeks a year.

Would've been a shoe-in right now if not for the 1.2 to 4.7 final quarter yesterday. Woosha must have realised the implications of a win and too big of a percentage booster.

No mention of the 6.2 to 1.4 third term though?

Saints need three goals to zip from here. From there basically every Brissie goal needs two from the saints. Very much alive.

Brisbane look tired ;)

Don't see it happening really, no way Brisbane will stay scoreless, and the Saints won't be able to kick 2 for every Brisbane goal in a single quarter.

Do I see Rockliff and Zorko limping.

Seems silly to keep them out there.

No need to feed Essendon the attention. Gold Coast will get a trade done with someone other than Essendon. Some of their fans are disgusting though " we can get him for free" when no other clubs went the grievance tribunal route.

Personally I think Jaeger told them he wants a trade to a certain top 4 club and that's why Gold Coast cracked it about him not being allowed to nominate his destination, because they'll probably only be able to secure two late first round picks.

They certainly wouldn't be behaving this way if he said he wants to go to Essendon, or was ever entertaining the notion.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
