Collingwood will come out firing and want to win this one badly, it's their Grand Final after all. Ethan's prediction: Jesse will back up last weeks game and kick another 6.

    I'm confident Adelaide will do everything they can to win, it's not ideal to go into a finals campaign with 2 losses from previous 2 games they will want to win

    agree

    B: Michael Hibberd, Oscar McDonald, Neville Jetta

    HB: Nathan Jones, Tom McDonald, Jayden Hunt

    C: Jordan Lewis, Christian Petracca, Christian Salem

    HF: Clayton Oliver, Jesse Hogan, Jake Melksham

    F: Jeff Garlett, Cam Pedersen, James Harmes

    Foll: Max Gawn, Dom Tyson, Bernie Vince

    I/C: Jack Watts, Angus Brayshaw, Mitch Hannan, Alex Neal-Bullen

    Emg: Josh Wagner, Declan Keilty, Corey Maynard

    In: Salem, Watts

    Out: Billy Stretch, Josh Wagner

    Apart from Jack Viney missing, that is probably our strongest team. I like the inclusion of Salem and Watts. It does strengthen our team. 

    Lets see how much Watts wants to keep his place in the team. I expect him to respond well. But well done to Goodwin who just treated Jack as any other player, didnt care that he was a former number 1 pick. He did what he thought was best for the team. 

    Just looking at the line up, if we do make finals and Viney comes back who would make way for him? I honestly could not look at that 22 and say that player should be out.

    Plenty of pigs to harvest from '77, live it up.

    Agree Viney is the only missing player from our best 22.  

    Agree that Frost must be disappointed that he is not an emergency.  I like his run, pace and strength versus Franklin, Walker, Dixon etc.

    I reckon we'll get on a roll. 10 goal win. 

    That would be sweet!

    Maybe last week was a better win than it looked, the Lions have gone into this week unchanged.

    Viney in for Vince or Hannan is our best team apart from perhaps Frost in there somewhere.

    Absolutely love the changes.  Very strong side, even without Viney.  On paper it looks like a very well balanced side that can score through multiple options.  

    I would love to see us put them away early and hold them at arms length for the rest of the day.

    Great Ins. Jack looked like he had his confidence back watching him play last week in the VFL and I think he'll play with a bit of freedom this week given he's not expected to be the ultimate target up forward. I think we'll see a far different JW to what he dished up on his return against Port.

    Hope Salem also slots in nicely again.

    It's going to be tough at the selection table in 2 weeks if the above two play well and we win. Who goes out for Viney?

    Id just leave Jesse in the square all day. Dont bother running up the ground. a few times last week we got the ball, looked up and there was no one in our forward line to kick it to. Just leave him there.

    I think the changes are what is needed. More balance and enough to give pies defenders something to worry about.

    Why is it their Grand Final?? The only thing they will be looking forward to will be Mad Monday and a trip overseas

    BIG congrats to Dec Keilty for being named an emergency. Due recognition for some outstanding form in the magoos.

    Goodwins comments on Vineys injury are a bit of a worry. If it's bone related you'd think it's a hotspot. Hopefully this isn't or  doesn't lead to a similar injury as Trenners last foot injury. Does anyone have a bit more of an educated opinion on what his injury is likely to be and whether he'll make it back for the first final (provided we make it)?

    • 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?
