Good question, they were 11-4 and will miss.

Thats a massive choke.  Ollie Wines re-signed at that stage too if I recall correctly.

Should have come back to Vic.

Does the AFL hire police for matches? They're even waiting outside the coaches box to escort the coaches to the ground!

Didn't realise you could hire out a copper.

I'm guessing that the 250 point win Port needed to pass is on percentage is less likely to happen now.

My god can someone tell port that they can be 8th spot tonight? 

Thankgod the bummers can't make finals. 

This is a disgraceful strat from port. 

I wanted them in 8th so at least geelong had to earn there spot. 

I know the cats won't lose but it would have made it kind of interesting.

So looks like we would have made finals regardless of a win? And to think port were 11-4 at round 16...

Jack Watts has been abysmal so far.

The only one for Port who hasn't would be Ryder.

So let me clear this in my head, Essendon pantsing Port means that in the end, we didn't actually need to win a game to make the finals anyway?

Well, I've had a dry chuckle about that.

But, as my lovely other half so perfectly put it "Well, ok, but this way is much nicer".

This Port Adelaide teams smells like the team Voss had in Brisbane, when they went and got Fevola, Staker, Raines etc for [censored] all return and ultimately Voss lost his Job.

Hinkley and co have misread this list massively and its going to set them back years of lost talent due to recruiting dud recycled players.

Guess it looks like Kenny asked for Vossy's advice and trusted his assistant too the silly fool.

And to think some posters on here still think Watts would still play an important role for us right now...

He'll be delisted end of next year.

Bit reminiscent of Melbourne vs Collingwood in the final round last year.

We won a spot in the finals before getting it handed to us. How could you not love that?

Watching this game between the 9th and 10th best team, we are clearly a top 8 side. Melbourne's footy is streets ahead of what these teams are producing.

There is great joy in watching two arrogant clubs which tried to bulk-buy their way into finals each taking turns at being thoroughly crapulent.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
