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..."

    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

    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.

    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

    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.

    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: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
