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.

??? Clayton Oliver ???

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.

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.

Anyone got a link for overseas please!! 

I'm just listening on AFL live radio (on the AFL live app)...couldn't get a video stream working (7Plus).

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
