Is anyone else petrified of the prospect of  playing Geelong in a final.

This mob has bullied us into submission since 2007 and absolutely embarrassed us as a professional sporting organisation, like no other opposing club has.

And the 3 most recent matches we’ve played against them, we’ve given it our absolute best shot and still come short. Hasn’t helped that Geelong have kicked 50.22 in stupidly lucky accuracy.

And finally....Dangerfield.

I think we’re a better chance leaving the G and taking on GWS.

 

 

Hell no. 

I think Geelong is the weakest side in the top 8. They wouldn’t have even made finals if their last two matches weren’t against 2 of the 3 worst teams in the comp at their home ground. 

We should have beaten them twice this season. A bit more experience and Gawn kicking straight and we win both. 

I look forward to the redemption of beating them in finals. I loath them and I want to play them more than anyone else. 

Hawthorn and Richmond scare the crap out of me. Geelong don’t.

    Have we?

    The record books state we’ve beaten them once in 12 years.

    To be fair we haven’t beaten many teams in the last 12 years and they did win 3 flags in that time.

    Yes Jaded but their teams that won G.F's are not playing in two weeks time. Cannot wait to play them in the finals as I reckon we have them and they know it. Several cat fans at our golf club are quite worried coming up against us. BRING IT ON.

    Well we mustn't forget what the record books say! Wink

    What's up with those Lions uniforms?

    The further they stray from traditional Fitzroy, the more bollocks they look.

    Collingwood finishing 2nd on the ladder with the double chance and an travel-free path to the Grand Final is horrible thought.

    I like the Lions, but today I hope West Coast beat them and hold on to 2nd spot.

    If the Methcoast drop to 3rd or 4th do they still get a home final if we play them. 

    I believe they’ve secured 2nd.

    Ah yes thanks. The app I was using to look at the ladder was a ‘live ladder’ which I didn’t realise.

    Looks like the Pies are heading back to Optus Stadium in a fortnight.

    The Exers kicked 2 more goals than Carlton for the year. Think that might be 4 years in a row?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      Captain Max Gawn still has a massive lead in the Demonland Player of the Year Award from Christian Petracca, Kozzy Pickett, Jake Bowey & Clayton Oliver. Your votes please; 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
