You know that for me the Collywobbles is back and they have secures their 27 th Runner up  a record that will never be broken. However they lost another close one and that was made to happen when their banner ripped off the pole  well before the game.

No sympathy for them at all.   

As for WCE good luck to them take your cup back and celebrate it in WA we don't need you around us.

    Yep, called that one a bit early 'Jibroni'...

    Thank goodness they turned it around.

    Great effort by WC and a great coaching display by Simpson.

    His match ups were spot on as they were last week against us...

    No-one should ever lose like that. I felt for my Collingwood fans at the Harp today and gave them my condolences. 

    But it had to happen, I'm sorry.

    He's a class act 'chook'...pity he has to coach Coliingwood.

    Taking the time to console the cheer squad members before the game is the measure of the man.

    He's (Buckley) changed, he's grown a lot, the past 12 months.   Very very noticeably.

    Done a great job, in 2018.

    I thought Will Schofield was terrific for the Eagles. He saved some certain goals with his desperation and I just love McGlovern.

    I know what hes saying... what I'm saying is, to change a culture out, to build a fresh one,,,  a club has to cut strings with many experienced players... to change things.

    Not debating that. My point was entirely around how we botched that trade. Don't give a [censored] about Howe leaving, stuff him, but we should be extracting better currency than the likes of Ben Kennedy for Howe.

    How's the Collingwood cheer squad feeling right now about that banner...

    Not near as bad as that runner. That had an actual impact on the result.

    Great game, the best team won. A few chokers there in the last quarter but 44 blokes going toe-to-toe. 

    Dom Sheeds's goal. Just wow.

    A shocking game from the umps. Many head high contacts missed and a lot of dropping the ball/holding the ball interpreted as a ball up. Something has to be done about blocking in marking contests. A real blight on the game now. 

    And even though I admire Collingwood under Buckley (who I loathed as a player but respect as a coach) there remains a deep seated, unspoken satisfaction that Collingwood have lost another GF.

    What a beautiful thing - the filth nutted in the last moments.

    Melbourne must learn from that. The weagles were jumped and trailed by 5 goals yet fought their way back - that's what premiers do.

    BBO, we must grudgingly admit that Collingwood played well whilst thoroughly enjoying the style of their demise. That there was probably a block on Maynard that enabled Sheed to mark and goal, well that was poetic justice.

    Beautiful work by that umpire.

    Only reason I'm happy the Eagles won. 

    If Collingwood won we'd be hearing all about it from every bandwagon. The Eagles can celebrate as loud as they want in Perth. 

    Demonland, think of us Western Demon supporters, why can't all Eagle supporters stay in Victoria for the next 12 months?

    I had my office covered in Eagles crap this week. It time for others to suffer the Eagle victory.

    or put out a contract on him.

    Have just seen the footage of Buckley consoling the runner in the rooms.

     Had not realised it was Alex Woodward, the poor bloke who had done heaps of knees before and after being drafted by the Hawks. This would be worse by far.

    Feel for Pies but thrilled Howe didn’t win a flag. Or Eddie. 

    I have a lot of time for Buckley. I like him a hell of a lot more as a coach than I did a player.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      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?
