That's it!ย  Thanks.

I wonder when they Geelong will realise their % doesn't matter.ย  Maybe they are just showing off...

What this shows is another distortion in the fixture.ย  Non-finals contending teams usually have youngsters who tire at seasons end, with nothing to play for.ย  They put the cue in the rack.ย  If finals contending teams get 2 or 3 games in the last few rounds vs them they can get easy wins/boost %.ย ย  Geelong have had two very easy wins and added about 20% to their percentage = Automatic entre to finals.ย ย ย

Would be some good viewing. More interested in that one than the Freo and Pies game.ย

I wouldnโ€™t be surprised if itโ€™s the Cats undoing in the end. Come finals time it will be a full month since their last tough game againstย Hawthorn.

I'd rather our run home than Geelong's any day.

Gee pretty good that, no matter who you play against thatโ€™s actually impressive.


Gee this female umpire is quite bad at her job. Surely she wont get a finalย

Really on the radio they said she was doing well.ย

If they finish 7th LH they wouldnt play us if we won and finish 5th?? No??

You're right....NO

8th v 5th

7th v 6th

Dogs definitely deserved to beat Richmond there. Unlucky to hit the post so many times!

Late in the season we have seen Richmond are clearly beatable at the MCG. I'd back 3-4 teams to beat them come finals time now, and I'm convinced they won't win the flag again. They're nowhere near as good the media makes out and I'd love for us to get a crack at them!ย

Looks like game over already at Subiaco. Freo are porridge.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    Itโ€™s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brillianceโ€”mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
