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.

If only Adelaide was playing in this game too. Then I could watch every non-Melbourne supporting member of my extended family feel bad in one glorious night.

    No noise of acclamation at the Adelaide Oval tonight. The Bombers lead frees 12 to 6.

    That’s because Essendon are everyone’s second favourite team. Even the umpires.

    They continue to talk up Essendon but they are 8-12 at best.

    Could never understand the hype but not to worry they will get the prime time games again next year

    But wait a minute, wasn’t everyone at the start of the year talking about how well Port had recruited?

    Ollie Wines is slowly becoming an overrated player for me.

    Give me Angus Brayshaw every day of the week.

    I REALLY want the cats in the first week, I feel like beating them in the finals would exorcise some demons for us

    Sooo let me get this straight... Dons can’t play finals and Port have a chance to go into the 8 and how Cats lose... 

    Port look terrible and Ess are over celebrating!

    Agreed 100%.

    If he was a Melbourne player we would be pulling our hair out at his poor foot skills and lack of speed.   Covers the ground like a turtle.

    Me too.

    Finally, Viney would get to play them in 2018.

    Boy, wouldn't it be funny if Essendon win and it turns out we would've made finals regardless of losing our last two games? ?

    Poor old Watts. Would be lucky to get a game at Casey the way he is playing. Looks to be totally uninterested in going anywhere near the ball unless it lands in his lap. Doubt he’ll get another contract.

    I’m just so glad that for once the destiny was in our hands and we were good enough to make sure of it without having to rely on other results.

    Ridiculous.  It’s Wines v Toumpas as the comparison. 

    Brayshaw is a champion. And so is Ollie Wines.

    God, I hope he gets another contract.

     

    Imagine all the nuffies on here calling for us to recruit him as a delisted free agent if he doesn’t!

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
