I just want to wish Zak Jones all the best in this weekends GF. 

He is the first of the Jones boys to make to a GF. 

in saying that I am tipping the Bulldogs. 

Would like to see them win it after such a long drought. 

Next on the list to win it would be the Demons.

    All the hype about the Bulldogs this week has been insane, it could all end in tears very quickly.

    Agreed, they may [play the game before it starts, bit like us in 2000, we looked so good up to the GF and then we just went to pieces.

    Hope the Bulies win and then we win the next three like we did in 55, 56 and 57.

    On a side note....when is the Swans COLA finally phased out?

    BA, I think all clubs have the same salary cap next year. Lions, Suns, Swans and Giants are just left with the academy zones in which is just as much and if not more of an unfair advantage.

    Tipping the swans to win easily. The dogs sort of remind me of the Dee's in 2000. Having said that no one was going to beat Essendon that year.

    Great to see young Jones an important part of the Swans defence. He is a different cat that way he goes about it.

    I want the Dogs to win. No question.

    I think the Dogs are paving a way for our own set of youngsters. Effort is superior to top draft picks such as the Giants received.

    If the Dee's can develop a similar desire to 'do it for their mates' I reckon We'll be in for a few solid years.

    I should be happy for the Doggies supporters after their massive drought but I'm not. It's kind of like seeing your mate win tattslotto. Whilst it's fantastic for your mate, what benefit do you actually get out of it? 

    I hope Buddy kicks a goal after the siren to win the game as a result of a dubious free kick.

    I could've sworn they won the flag last week.

    I've never seen such elation and excitement after a game that wasn't a grand final.

    BA,  I vaguely recall you having a wager on the dogs to be premiers. Is that correct/still on? 

  • Quote

    Recon it will be over at quarter time or they will go goal for goal all day. Haven't been this excited about a GF for a few years.

    Go Doggies

    ( Swans by 40 )

    I think the Swans are taking a huge risk with McVeigh, could come unstuck for them. Maybe he will pull out before the game.

    Along with Mills they could lose this at the selection table.

    I guess we will see how it pans out on the day...

    It was correct mate but not it's not still on, I had :

    Coleman : Kennedy @ $2.75

    RS : Oliver @ $10

    Brownlow : Danger @ $9

    Flag : Dogs @ $12.50

    x $10 outlay = $30,937

     

    Would of been nice.

    Hindsight is a wonderful thing....

    Next year I will take a few each way and mix it up. Need to have at least 3 options for the flag.

    Ok great, was thinking Swans COLA was just about wrapped up but was under the impression Suns and Giants has a couple of years left to run on theirs. Hopefully Brisbane's doesn't go back up.

    I think Sydney's is gone (there's probably still contracts in there that use it) but a few years to go for Suns and GWS.

    Dogs will keep the momentum rolling and win by 11 points with Bontempelli to kick the winner.

    would like to see this but think the swans will smash them

    I recon the doggies played their grand final last week.

    Be so hard to muster up that kind of desire again.

    That said,who knows what their coach has put into their heads.

    I really hope they win and it is a game that equals that of last week.

    That game showed me how far our team has got to go to rival that kind of determination.

    I don't think you can compare this GF with 2000. That Bombers side was absolutely unstoppable and had the greatest season in history.

    The difference between the Dogs and Swans quality is a lot smaller than the Dees and Bombers of 2000.

    I thought the dogs played their GF, 3 weeks ago, then 2 weeks ago, then last week....

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
