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

    Umpiring is getting a bit like it was during GWS's first year or two.

    The AFL Commission must all be so excited right now. 

    Push in the back is not paid anymore....

    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.

    The AFL needed to make GWS more than just competitive.  The have to win the thing enough times to make GWS a habit in the Western Sydney market.  Seems to be working!

    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.

    I for one welcome our new Giant overlords. (Anything to stop Hawthorn winning the thing every year.)

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

    Seeing that little rat kick the sealer makes me feel crook.

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

    This was inevitable.   Manufactured garbage.  Ironic that that they are de-throning the COLA Swans.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
