It's amazing what can happen when  a team plays for each other, supports each other and believe in each other.  This is what Melbourne sides had under Northey and Daniher.  That, I hope, will be the n

Hate to sound like a broken record but to all those who excused our last two games on the basis that we were young or tired.... have a look at what a "TEAM" can do. They had every right after the

How was that not in the back / marking interference?  2 goal turnaround? Swans look Gawn

Wow this could be one of the biggest results of the year, gotta say though I'm wanting the Swans to win. The idea of GWS getting into the finals and a prelim so early in their life does make me a bit sick.

Gee, you would think that they are playing this final in Melbourne considering their fan representation at this game. GWS seem to barely registering a reaction when they kick a goal.

GW$ next final will be at Spotless. They win today it's hard not to see them in the grand final.

 

Digusting.

Could be the first interstate final where the home crowd is outnumbered by the interstate visitors.

I'm sure the doggies supporters would travel up.... perhaps less sure about the Hawthorn supporters

The AFL spin machine will be functioning in high gear. We will be told about how it's a victory for the national competition.

Shame Sam Newman's 'fat rat's clacker cup' can't be awarded.

And Griffen is 30.

Sorry, you're right, I missed him.

Plenty of tradeable assets to fill those holes, let alone development within the franchise. 

Correct.  I'm not saying they are finished but those 5 have been pretty influential and they'll miss the experience.  They will need to make sure a couple of his step into that gap of they want to keep improving rather than hold at this level, when those players drop off.

I reckon this is the best game of footy I've seen since the 2012 grand final

I would agree up until the point that the umpires stepped in to make sure GWS kicked away.

This performance by GWS is a glimpse into the next 5 years at the very least Ladies and Gentlemen.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Fremantle

    The Demons were blown out of the water and were absolutely embarrassing against the Fremantle Dockers in Alice Springs ultimately going down by 92 points and getting bundled out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
