The Other Preliminary Final

Featured Replies

I prefer the Pies to the Tigers. I think we have a good chance of beating Collingwood but we need to play well against WC. The bye might hurt the Eagles. 

 

Collingwood can win the flag, there’s no point pretending they can’t.

 

Rance whinging for free kicks with 3 minutes to go.

The game's biggest [censored] and IMO one of its most over-rated players.

Don’t know why posters are concerned about Collingwood. We still have a game to play tomorrow. 

We are concerned because no matter who wins tomorrow, a Pies premiership is highly likely. And you don’t live in Melbourne so you don’t understand how awful that is!!!!

Hoping for a Collingwood win as a Melbourne v Collingwood Grand Final would be so right on so many grounds.

Of course Richmond supporters would say we avoided them but there's always next year.

Started this thread with the post above.

Let's hope the sentiment comes true.

Sadly this is a distinct possibility. If they play like this next week, very few teams will be able to match it. I'm not sure we've played as impressively for a sustained period like Collingwood have tonight.

Extra week off helped little.

And hopefully tomorrow too.

Was that a cakewalk?

Well done Collingwood. 

Sickening. 

Jeremy Howe winning a flag. Please god no. 


Pies were hot in the contest and had a better midfield.

Yeh I understand that and the hype around Cox is gross but they played well. Must be an amazing feeling. 

Who would have thought we'd be saying Richmond lack a Plan B? That's why I reckon our game style holds up better than theirs, because Richmond don't win clearance. When their pressure was matched, they had nowhere to go.

I think we're the only team that can beat Collingwood. I'm not sure we can get past these Eagles muppets though.

Seeing Bucks’ smug face makes me sick. 

I hate this team so much. Please please please let us win tomorrow, because honestly West Coast are no chance. 

We are the competition’s last chance of saving the world a Pies victory. 

Basically this. Collingwood will absolutely obliterate the Eagles on the G next week if we lose tomorrow. The only reason that team is anywhere near the top 8 is their ridiculously biased home ground advantage, just like Geelong only making finals every year because of Kardinia Park.

Give me a bucket! We truly are the comp's last hope.

Could we handle Cox? Frosty?

In my experience most Cox tend to shrink in stature when it gets frosty, so that might be a good move.


It will be very tough to beat West Coast over there in a final. Collingwood couldn't do it. If we do manage to do it we will trouble Collingwood - especially if they go in as favs and us underdogs. It would be the perfect storm for us. Just to sneak into the Grand Final and pinch it. The harder game is tomorrow. I have lived in WA and they are one eyed and it will take a massive effort to win tomorrow.

Who the [censored] was playing on sidebottom... 41 disposals.... 35 uncontested that's insane 

This is a bad outcome no matter which way you look at it. 

West Coast beat us and Pies win the flag. 

We beat West Coast and we face the possibility of losing to Collingwood in a grand final. 

It’s one big messy Cox fest.

West Coast beat Collingwood at the G earlier this year.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
