There's no fairy tales on Grand Final day unfortunately. 

Brisbane in 2001, Port Adelaide in 2004, Sydney in 2005, Hawthorn in 2008, Geelong in 2009, Geelong in 2011, Sydney in 2012 and even Hawthorn in the last few years haven't always gone in favourites.

They might not be "fairy tales" but certainly the the outsiders going in.

    The head tells me I am crazy, but genuinely think the Dogs will win this by about 20 points. If they are within 3 goals at quarter time they will win it. Am also tipping some Buddy inaccuracy will burn the swans and Johanison (sp?) to get Coleman

    Clarry Oliver dead last in his GF sprint heat

    He was having a bit of banter with Ben Kennedy and Tommy Mc on Twitter, said he had embarrassed the club

    Reckon for most blokes it's more about the GF ticket than the actual sprint. You'd think he'd be happier finding his seat as the other blokes get ready to run again.

    Surely Jayden Hunt should have been in the sprint.

    Believe he is overseas on holiday, I thought it would be Harmes, he is still in Melb, maybe Clarrie volunteered

    I think he would get a free ticket anyway Stuie.

    But you would know more I'm guessing.

    Tippet and Buddy should have worn sequined mini-skirts like the prostitutes they are.

    And this is why you need a gun KPF. Bulldogs won't be able to keep bombing it in to contests. They don't have good enough KPFs.

    Haha, how often do the Dogs throw it? The answer is regularly.

    I've counted at least 10.

    Also getting their weekly [censored] polish from the umps. Frees 9-3 their way already.

    How was Libba's throw on the 50. No disguising that. 'Quick hands' says the ump.

    If you can do it and get away with it, do it. Any advantage outside of AOD, do it. ;)

    Tight and hard with no free space, and no time for elite skills. Buddy being managed really well by Bulldogs defence, and midfield battle even. If the Dogbies can stop bombing it in long, and work it into their forward 50, they have a better chance. Morris from Bulldogs and Grundy from Swans both outstanding in the first quarter.

    Boyd still looks like a log, but it's in games like this that can turn careers. Just look at Tom Hawkins.

    Good call, Adam. Good call. He bobs up and kicks the next one.

    All the way back in our game against them early in the season, I observed that the Bulldogs’ biggest strength was their amazing handpassing. That’s what’s proving the difference so far today.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
