    Paddy McCartin can't take a trick.  Was knocked out again in a contest in their VFL game.  That is about his 5th concussion since being drafted.  He is too brave for his own good (reminds me a bit of our Gus).

    Feel for the lad.  Never like to see a talented player continuously being set back.  Hope Paddy takes the same option that Gus has and take some time out to fully recover.

    Port are going to win but drop percentage. 

     

    Only if Cwood kick another couple

    The percentage for this game (at 92 v 62) is about 150.

    Some damning stats for the pies supposedly 'elite ' midfield.  Disposals: Pendlebury 32, Treloar 35, Sidebottom 32 and Adams 29. Not a solitary score between them and very few inside 50's.  They are playing in circles!

    Terrible trading for Adams, Aish, Treloar (and Hoskin-Elliot) - used up lots of first and 2nd round picks.  Took what looked like the easy road to finals and now its all falling part. 

    Maybe Bugg can send his ex team mate, Adams a tweet on how it feels to play for a 'successful club'!!!

    Horrible coaching by Buckley. One forward against 2or 3 defenders all day. 

     

    Is Dermott special comments or on a [censored] podcast? STFU.

    Isn't there some 'boutique' suburban ground the Lions could be playing at so that it looks like people turn up to watch them? I swear more people turn up to watch the Kangaroos.

    Both the Lions and the Suns are serial under-performers when it comes to both revenue and crowds.

    I am not sure that even if the Lions gained success that the crowds would come back. The market has moved on.

    Bring on  a Tassie team !!!

    Giants to go top of the ladder tonight

    Adelaide have a great percentage which will keep them above a number of teams save for Port which are only one percentage point behind.

    The city of Adelaide will be all betwixt and between if their two teams make the top 4

    I'm not sold on Sydney. Fell over the line in back-to-back weeks against middling opposition in Richmond and Essendon. A half-decent team would have won both of those games and they'd be 4-9 and season over. Credit to them for winning both but if we play at our best I don't fear them at all, they are not a patch on the 2016 Sydney.

    In saying that, Hawthorn and Sydney both winning in the same weekend is frustrating. This season has been enjoyable for many reasons but one of them has been that Hawthorn and Sydney have struggled. It's not going to be anywhere near as enjoyable in the last 9 weeks if either/both of those sides pushes for finals.

    I'm trying to remain optimistic about our ability to make Top 4, but Port's demolition of the Pies today has diminished those hopes a fair bit. I can't see us breaking into that GWS, Adelaide, Geelong, Port foursome.

    Hope this helps:

    Port still haven't beaten anyone of importance and said they weren't a top 4 team. Geelong are also still very up and down and can be overtaken too (and at the moment their percentage is almost identical to ours).

    And at the end of the day there's still debate about whether top 4 is even still an advantage anymore. So I'll just aim for a more reasonable 5-6 finish and that elimination home final. Anything else can just be a bonus. Winning tonight would certainly help those chances.

    I don't think we've won enough games yet to be focusing on top 4 instead of top 8.

    Top 4 isnt an advantage?

    Id rather have the chance to win and earn a prelim at the g than have to travel! 

    The dogs were brilliant last year for 4 weeks but dont let that fool you into thinking 5th is better than 4th because you get a home final week 1.

    Especially when 3 of the top 4 teams are currently interstate teams

After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
