BT doesn’t seem to mind broadcasting his ignorance, especially when it comes to Melbourne, but he may have outdone himself today.

Bartel spoke about Jones closing in on Neitz’s games record.

Conversation immediately turned to the club’s leading goalkicker, with BT asking “Melbourne have never had a league leading goalkicker have they?”

Yeah. Neitz. The guy you were taking about ten seconds ago. You [censored] numpty.

Right up there with the Triple M newsreading numpty who said "Melbourne still hadn't beaten a top 8 side, but that ended on the weekend when they defeated GWS...."

Then we must give you some credit! I wondered why he was tearing it up so much. Good job.

Next week, can you scream "Kick straight, Tracc!" a dozen times? Or even 6 would do.

Bahahaha - I would be honoured to play my part in a huge win over the Cats!

What? Garlett has been stinking it up at Casey until this weekend. He was so bad last week that it was impossible to select him after he was dropped in the lead-up to the WCE game.

As for Bugg, I don't even consider him coming into the side. In fact, I would put money on him being delisted at the end of the season.

So, we've just finished the season in fifth place, despite significant injury lay-offs to important players. Where are all the 'the sky is falling' posters who were virtually threatening to rip up their memberships a few weeks ago..? ;)

My point just was that he's keep out Casey players week in week out. Until a couple of weeks ago, Kent was in that bucket too.

I reckon Spargo is doing what he needs to. I was surprised going back and watching the AFL.com highlights that he's involved in a hell of a lot of our goals. 

Ans yes, where are they??? I certainly wasn't one of them.

As someone who had basically lost interest in the season just a few weeks ago, it's good to see you back and fired up, Jaded.  

And I echo your sentiments - smashing those arrogant bastards in two weeks time would be so, so good!

Ooohhh drive by...

Every finals team will fear playing Melbourne. We have some weapons, unpredictability, game breakers and match winners, we have hardness, multiple scoring options, momentum and nothing to lose.

Go Dees.

 

Not to mention a few loose cannons!!

The AFL chose the MFC elimination final for Friday night football. They chose the brand that plays the most exciting football for their premier AFL audience.  Gee things have changed! Go Dees!

Anyone know how gate $ are split during finals? Is it split 50/50 between the competing clubs? Clubs get none of it and all goes to AFL?

Well last night my humble pie tasted very good of course it was helped by washing it down with a few single malts.

Yesterday the Weid showed his is more than an average VFL player. Good game Sam and may you have a few more before 2018 draws to a close.

And for Saty , Spargo earned his spot at the highest level. However his inability to kick much beyond 35 meters worries me.

I listen to Triple M just for the Dees games so I can listen to Paul Roos talk about us - he is always pumping our tyres but also gives good insight when things aren't working!  And, if I'm watching at home I mute the TV volume.  So much better than listening to the Ch 7 fanboys-of-the-opposing-team.

I don't listen to them LH however I might have to tune in as there is not a lot of rocket scientists on most of the other stations. If I hit BT I immediately turn off and yes Chanel 7 are vomit inducing. Silence is golden when watching 7.

Lewis smells finals and turns it up. He must be so incredibly bored by these meaningless Home and away matches. The man wants another medal and is playing like it. 

Harmes is in some sort of form. Dusty don’t argues while destroying opposition midfielders. I hope he kills Dangerfield that little turd. 

ANB did a great match winning job on Weitfield too. 

Lewis surprised onfield - particularly in the first quarter with clearances, run and carry, expert delivery to forwards; he looked so natural in that rare role (for him, with the Dees) setting up the destruction of the GWS run and carry through midfield and outside space. A coach of the near future for the Dees, showing the way as best he could at this stage of his season. He set the tone without doubt. Keep it up, Jordan, it was terrific.

How many top 8 teams have we beaten now?

Would love to see someone with time and ability do a "Ladder vs Top 8" now.  Spoiler alert - Collingwood would be on the bottom hang only beaten us out of all the finalists.

Hahaha, par for the course!!!! Some of the stories about Oberon High, Geelong High and North Geelong high were insane.

I hate to say it but I had a few years at “Grammer” before the family couldn’t afford it and went to St Joeys. Then off to boarding school. 

Played juniors and a little 3rds at South Barwon CC.

Not long enough obviously.

Just a quick shout out to Tommy Mac, who came 6th in the Coleman despite missing the first few games. Also, shout out to Jesse who finished eighth.

Just a note on VDB. Doesn't he put the fear of the lord into our forward half. What a team effort today, a calm, measured performance.  

I said when Vandenberg came back that he was an important addition: there were scoffers. I bet they scoff no more...

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
