Has anyone else noticed how well this game has been umpired? Just about the perfectly umpired game of AFL footy. Please let them umpire this way tomorrow so we can fairly and squarely work out who deserves the big dance.

Ahem. Nicholls.

    This is my exact thoughts. Imagine Eddie celebrating with his two little tweebs as we lose in a granny. God no, just no.

    Yeah, and my neighbour is mad Collingwood, if they won I'd have to belt him and I don't really want to, seems like a nice bloke.

    Richmond are being pathetic. Stuff em. It is hard to watch as I hate the filth..Maybe if we win tmrw it is a godsend. To beat the filth in a granny would be wonderful.

    C'wood are doing to R'mond what they did to Melbourne on QB ........ only doing it better!  God I hate the prospect of that mob being in the Grand Final ....... but I guess if we make it, beating them will taste even sweeter.

    Hopefully played there GF tonight, can't play any better than this.

    Richmond look so slow and lethargic, only played once in a month hopefully the same with the Weagles.

    So Collingwood vs Melbourne grand final next week!

  • Quote

    Ugh the mere idea of losing to Collingwood in a Grand Final makes me physically ill. 

    Worse, they will absolutely belt the Eagles at the G. They are beyond overrated and can't play the G.

    Geez, Collingwood have hit their peak at the right time this year. Going to be near impossible to beat.

    Honestly didn't rate them at the start of the season but their team is terrifying when clicking.

    Richmond...being shown up...they are limited in style. Collingwood exampliflying it.

    We CAN beat this Collingwood.

    The flag is ours...if we really REALLY want it ;)

    Why are there empty seats next to the MCC if its a sell out?? Never got that..

    Not all seats in the MCC are reserved, those ones empty are the walk up on game day seats. As an MCC member myself it’s a bloody weird old school system and a night like tonight shows it’s not the best, there should be no empty seats tonight.

    According to Bruce, Howe has been phenomenal. 8 touches (2 marks). Bruce is done. 

    And is he saying that that absolute champion Prancer having a typical amazing game?

    He went straight forward after the opening bounce. As Collingwood got on top he didn't get moved back into the middle.

    It's funny how Richmond look so different when their stars are down. They haven't had to deal with those players being out of the side or even out of form.

    Pull the other one, they've beaten pretty much everyone all year and they haven't lost at the G for 18 months.

    Twas judging by their performance tonite Uranus.

    unfortunately though Billy Slater gave away a goal line penalty for a beautifully executed hip and shoulder. loved it. Ref didn't - called it a shoulder charge. if he gets charged by the NRL minimum penalty is a week. might be his last game and no fairytale GF for him

    I saw that. For all the NRL talks about how tough they are, that was a fair bump in footy. And the guy jumped straight back up!

    Brodie Grundy is also tearing Nankervis to pieces.

    Richmond's lack of talls (no key defender to go with Cox, no tall for the bail out mark down the line, no second ruckman) is a massive problem.

    I suppose Lynch helps with that next year.

    Rance is so overrated.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
