VFL FINALS WEEK 3

Featured Replies

I can't believe that just happened to Salem. Firstly, they looked like they were out to get them, secondly, that patch of turf is not an acceptable standard

Can you access the TV? It's on channel 7.

Not in Perf I don't think, all good I found it online. 

 

Salem is a big loss today; he has dominated the game.  Unfortunately, can't see him playing next week with his concussion history. 

Time to put him on ice for next year! 

The whole ground is a crapheap. Cant believe they are playing every final here. Surely princess park victoriapark junction oval are better or even the home teams should get home final.

We will still take a good lead into the main break but the injury to Salem is disconcerting. He was dominating the game and so clean with his disposal.

I love how we are keeping our boys playing instead of putting them on ice for preseason. Couldn't get better practice for the big time than a heated contest today.

unfortunately things like the Salem incident happen, hopefully we see no more.

I played a bit of footy with Masters who tackled Salem, one of the least dirty players you'll see. Just awful how these things happen sometimes 

Don't think it was the tackler people were angry about, it was the dirty [censored] who threw the knees in after he had been knocked out

Have they forgotten about the siren - 38+ minutes now??

They've revved clarry up for sure

I don't think the thuggery techniques work against Clarry; it just makes him angrier.

A bit like Doomsday at the end of Batman vs Superman.

Oh, pipe down Saty. I'm a film producer. I know which one I'd rather be. A VFL player or a filmmaker doing what I love everyday.

Show me some of your rushes, will let you know whether there is a moment in there that some would regard as pathetic

So you think kicking 40 metres across goal to no one but a Willy player was a good decision do you?

You should be a coach. 

No just commentary on a game, with keyboard heroes who have never made a wrong decision in a footy game, get over it

Doesn't take away from the point you're making, but Junction Oval is being re-developed by Cockram and the centre square is currently a muddy hole.

He just needs to make sure it doesn't distract him too much. That tackle was a bulltish free kick, but the love tap was probably uncalled for.

My thoughts exactly the VFL shouldn't be playing finals at a ground used for cricket. The centre wicket area and the practice wickets where Salem went down head first would be as hard as concrete. Not acceptable VFL! And it is not as if Port is some boutique stadium, it's a bit of a dump. 

And Oliver sling tackled Gibbon into the deck in the centre square who was holding his head in pain.

We want to be a ruthless team, love tap, shows the team won't be messed with

Good lead so far. Hope Oliver doesn't get rubbed out for a love tap.

You provided no commentary on the game, you went the poster, as usual. 

Get over yourself, dopey.

Bull. You do that by tackling harder, getting to the ball first. Hitting a guy after his taken a mark is loosing focus

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
