This is good for us! Opens up the top 4, but more importantly means if we win tomorrow we are a lot safer in the 8. 

Port play Pies next week.

    Now come on brisbane pull a miracle out of the hat and beat those pies. 

    About to watch the gws crows game. Barracking hard for the crows.

    Hilarious!!

    great result for us. Pies beat Port next week and we beat Sydney tomorrow and Port cannot finish higher than us

    The "Jack Watt's moves to Port and still fails to play finals" story is a possibility, and would be pretty sad for him.

    Ah well, we will just have to beat Meth Coast twice in a month over there.

    Why? Hawthorn and Eagles winning is dream scenario. Fewer teams in contention is good. Really don't understand people wanting Geelong and Port to win today.

    That was great result for us! Don't know how anyone could think otherwise. If Brisbane win tonight, it locks one of Port or Collingwood onto 12 wins until the final round of the year. It's great for our finals chances, so long as we win against Sydney.

    Stop dreaming about finishing 2nd. West Coast were way too far ahead as it is and they have less to play for next week. Win win.

    Maybe take a 2nd look at their reasoning.

    Faint top 2/3 hopes. I'm all in on insurance plan.

    Agree praha. Won't count for squat though, if we can't capitalise tomorrow.

    We can still finish 2nd. 4th, 5th or 6th is most likely but I can't see either of GWS or WC dropping. Hawthorn may replace us in top 4. but we get a home final.

    Another exciting finish, sure. But in those final frantic minutes I was thinking a 50 metre goal square would make this really exciting. 

  • Quote

    Wet coke winning is a good result for us. We have to make the 8 first and foremost. With their injuries I would dare to say that port may not win another match.

  • Quote

    Port had the ball in there forward half with 90 seconds to go, to then allow 2 goals is a choke of epic proportions 

  • Quote

    Go lions.

  • Quote

    I wonder, if we'll have the guts to throw Tom MacDonald back in defence for a quarter if we have a solid lead in the last, like the Eagles had the guts to throw McGovern forward for a quarter.

    Finally someone spoken out about geelong. https://www.3aw.com.au/game-day-hawthorn-v-geelong-at-the-mcg/

    Geelong legend Jimmy Bartel said it’s not good enough.

    “You can’t have that top-end talent, that experienced coaching panel, a massive home-ground advantage, and miss the finals,” Jimmy said.

    ...and the Umpire review panel......

    Mate you and so many others can cream your tweeds about making the finals, a Port win meant we had 2nd place in our own destiny, win 3, we had 2nd guaranteed, Port losing today means we have to rely on other results.

     

    I don’t give a rats clacker about making the 8, this is an open season, any team can make the Grand Final where anything can happen, I wanted us to have the best opportunity to do that, Eagles winning limits it.

    You know teams can win from outside the top 4 now, don’t you? 

    Besides, you’re dreaming if you think we could finish top 2. West Coast play Brisbane in round 23. It was never going to happen. 

    I want to make the 8. That is first and foremost. The rest we can worry about later.

    • 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.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • 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.
