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.

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.

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

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?

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.

And the problem with that is?

Hate the filth.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
