Also take a look at the smug 'We are going to win. This is almost like falling off a log, it's that easy' smile that Smith had on his face as he was about to kick for goal.

"Never Fear...Smith is here..."

 
 

If they lose next week or in this Final Series that smirk the camera caught will haunt x

You will find it was a Geelong player walking back who made a smart arse comment to him

It's on the vision, you will see him walking up and down to his right as he takes the kick

I'm sure he was just wishing him good luck

Sydney V GWS

Hard to see this game with the stadium half in sun and shade.

When in the sun the colours are hard to pick ..... the AFL need to have a think about their product !!


It is just wrong, in the interests of player safety, that Stevie J can in effect head charge into an opponent's midriff and be rewarded with a goal.

This needs to be discouraged, not encouraged. 

Someone WILL break their neck one day.  Only then will the usual AFL knee jerk response come into effect. 

That was bloody good to watch. Plenty of heat in this one early.

The rucks are just not in the game Saty, game has been played very fast end to end.

Plus Tippet is off for concussion test along with Kennedy.

Kennedy taken out has unsettled the Swans. He's a pretty important player. Johnson out of the next game will be the fair punishment for taking him out of play and shifting momentum

He'll get 2, poor record I'd think DT.

Thanks, was Stevie J a late hit on Kennedy?

Swans v GWS heating up, some great footy. But GWS have made a massive mistake firing up Buddy Franklin. Did you see his next play bursting through 4 players and releasing the ball!?!? I expect him to go nuts now.

Two things I now want to see. 1) Shaw get flattened or knocked senseless to shut his mouth. Despised his dad, and his uncle and despise him. 2) Scully get monstered by his own ruckman and get carried off.

Yup, usual SJ, going to far and it will cost him.

Kennedy back on, very scrappy game now. GWS look like the much better team but can't find a fwd inside 50 this qtr.


It's a surprisingly open final. I don't remember so much uncontested footy and paddocks of space in a final.

Think you need to sit in the dark during half time and few deep breaths, although you did add a bit of extra colour to my reading of the excellent reports

Ok, can I have Shaw's mouth shut by a knock that doesn't knock him out? And Scully gets distracted by the sound of a jingling bag of coins being shaken by his old man?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
