Change from those silly around the corners that are so trendy lol

They’re messy aren’t they....

Stevie J started it and he seldom missed. Now players are doing it to hide how nervous they are.

Terrible game, terrible umpiring, obnoxious crowd and bloody freezing.

We've been really lucky with our final weather this year. The two best nights for it both weeks.

Toby Greene needs to go Kung Fu style and get involved in this game. Has done bigger all.

Downhill skier. Think his form in previous year's finals has been similarly flat. Goes missing when the going gets tough.

WTF was Sidebottom doing with his arm after that melee? It looked like a Nazi salute?! 

Thought similar.

Worst call of the season was burgoyne on brayshaw last night 

Shiel was worse.

The non calls not going to the orange abominations are glaring for mine.

'Old school' so I want these imposters (GWS) out of our finals.

I want our team to beat proper footy teams as we progress (hopefully progress)  Never said the same about the Eagles,  Crows,  Port & Freo ... footy states that deserved representation.

I still hate Collingwood though - sheer unadulterated hatred.  Pure hate.

I agree. I was just thinking couldnt imagine Melbourne playing GWS in a GF? How bad would that be. Reckon it would feel an empty event given what we would have gone through to get there. 91,000 Dees and 3 GWS orange people.....na no way. Hope the pies knock em out.

Umpiring is disgraceful.

GWS player should've knocked it over the line rather than get flattened on top of the ball. Although with this biased umpiring it would've been called deliberate.

Either way, umpiring is ridiculously biased in Collingwood's favour. With the scores this close, they'll probably determine the outcome with a howler call (or non-call).

One week at a time Wadda,  one week at a time!

But if we can get that far (mozz factor deactivated) I'd much rather face the Tigers or Pies.

And no,  I am not getting ahead of myself or any of that bathwater nonsense!  ??

There was also the touched goal in the third.

Was that kick before the last goal the required distance.

I was just saying that! Barely 15m.

Anyway, game over. Umpires and AFL get their wish.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
