Do they still do Eagle rock or was that a Subiaco thing?

Looks like it... :(

    Still only one win for the Filth vs a top 8 side all year, and that was us.

    Why'd we cop that narrative all season and they escape?

    If the Pies roll the Giants next week, Richmond v Collingwood in week 3 will be a huge match. Very glad that only one of those two teams can make the GF now.

    Also, one of us, Hawthorn or West Coast will make the Grand Final now. So we have a 33% chance of being in the GF. :)

    Have to give credit to West Coast, they were one down on the bench from early on but ran over the top of Collingwood.

    Collingwood still only have one win against a finalist. I don't rate them and on the shorter break against an in-form GWS, watch out.

    Meanwhile an MCG prelim would have been nice but we've already beaten WC once this year and the trips on the road this year have brought us together. They're beatable too, I think.

    Crikey. What to make of that. After quarter time, Eagles decided to play from behind, fumble and dispose terribly. Only got it back in last 10 mins. But it was all worth it to see Eddie going off his nut.

    It would be pretty great to belt that out after a big win!

    The WC won it with their crumbling, always collecting the loose balls at the base of packs.  We're very strong in that area as our boys know run hard.  The worry is Kennedy, but the only game practice he can get is an intra club.  But first we need to put the hawks out.

    Eagles wont be like last time i dont think...

    kennedy is badly underdone. we can hold him and match the eagles' in the contest.

    Collingwood's great hope for glory was to win tonight. 

    GWS will love nothing more than to give the Pies a touch up, which they're well capable of doing. 

    Sadly it's goodbye Maggies

    It’s crazy how so many in the media were giving it to us about it and so many who were giving to us picked Collingwood to beat West Coast tonight.

    Yep, another awful thought. One of Collingwood or Hawthorn guaranteed to make the Grand Final if we were to lose. Get me a vomit bag!

    Much funnier imagining West Coast being shat on by Richmond from a great height without the home-ground umpiring to get them home.

    Yeah I can live with that.

    Collingwood have been screwed. Sat night game, red eye back to Melb for a 6 day break before Sat.

    10 minutes ago I got questioned for not supporting Collingwood and now for being too sympathetic, rough night! ?

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
