    So bloody proud of the boys. Weekend can only get better if Colliwobbles appear again and they go out in straight sets! About to watch replay

    Anyone considered a possible repeat of 64? Dees and pies? So proud of the boys last night. No voice left today.

    In losing last night, Hawthorn becomes the first club in the current top-eight era to go out of the AFLFinals⁠ ⁠ in straight sets twice . They are now 0-4 in finals since the 2015 flag.

    Did we get the rub of the green with the umpiring?

    I thought it was pretty even.

    Not even close. I thought we got the obvious ones where we were impeded, and didn't get the obvious throws and HTB. Lewis is generally pretty fiery but he went off his tree at Nicolls for that non-decision against Roughy

    For the first time in 20 odd years, I might throw Murdoch a couple of bucks to get his paper...

    I thought even too. Pretty bad lack of recognition on this board for a decent negating effort by the Hawks for a good amount of time and executed their skillful possession game well. Took away our strengths and had their chances to make it tight. We obviously are a class above in pressure and took our chances. But no, UmPiReS TrIed tO WiN tHe GaMe foR thE HaWkS

    Yeah a member so that’s good news, telling my bride I am contemplating dropping over a grand on flights my not be though.

    Tell her you’ll drive over to save $. Then after a suitable amount of time allegedly “doing some research” come back to her solemnly and declare that you have figured out it would be cheaper to fly and takes less time which gives you time to take her out to dinner and a movie and give her foot massage. Problem solved!!!

    If anyone else has any problems they need solving I will be here all week ?

    Wet Toast will be a tough gig 

    Darling and Kennedy will be playing this time

    I think our defence has gone up a level on that round 22 match too. But yes a massive effort required and a little bit of luck our way and we can match it with them and win. I'm less impressed with their footy IQ than I am with hawthorns, so I don't think they can negate our game style and we'll have a bit of a high quality shootout again.

    Kennedy looked pretty off the pace most of the game last week. Dont forget he was playing on a bloke who was coming in for his first game of the year in a miracle recovery. Frosty will be a much tougher opponent. 

    Darling hardly set the world on fire last week and Collingwood have no key defenders.

    Huge shoutout to our defence. Hawthorn were on top at times but we never coughed up a run of goals like we would have earlier in the year.

    Hibberd is so important back there. Frost and OMac have grown. Jetta is a rock. And Lewis is playing his best footy he has played for us in the last 2 weeks.

    Tommy Mac always been a good player, now elite. If Jetta was unlucky for AA so was this bloke.

    Anyone think the pre match stuff presented by Hawthorn was utter crap?

    The compere’s performance  was very ordinary compared with Robbo’s class.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
