    If he plays like he did in the finals, then Jesse will be a distant memory.

    Big futuregir Sam

    Love his commitment skills awareness of Team responsibility and faith in the Club.

    Big year for Sam 35/50 goals.

    Like any Dees fan will never forget that Elim Final and the super performance from all and Sam's bog.

    Breakout last few games in 2018.

    Interesting. I was thinking of Steven May as Hogan's 'replacement', as he was the main part of the trade deal. I had expected the Weid to continue his improvement in the seniors regardless of who he played alongside.

    Vs Geelong last year:

    12 Kicks, 12 handballs, 7 marks, 3 goals, 4 tackles...

    He's going to be a gun...

    I'm really hoping for a forward line of TMac, Weid and Hunt next year.

    I think that was just about my favourite piece of footage all year.

    Lol at some of the comments in the clip. Some never miss a chance to pay out on Ablett. I do like the one about looking for a cheapie over the top rather than providing a shepherd for Danger.

    Scary to think what Weid may become.

    Bub, don't you remember that bloke with the bad body language who used to play in the forward line.

    No, not the blonde haired guy, the other one.

    Fantastic moment in a huge game.  Well done Sam.

    The surfy skulks away and the bald has-been tries but fails for a cheap shot.

    A pivotal moment for the game, the team and the individual.  GO WEEDS (would never have thought, 50 years ago, that I would ever ever say that)

    Ablett’s little hip and shoulder after the event. Very Useful....

    It was a glorious night. Pity we didn’t score more goals. The boys sure worked hard enough

    Love how the Weed goes about it.  no fanfare, no talk, just head down work hard. his agility and aggression improved last year.

    still a lot to work on but the signs are good.

    It sums up where Geelong are at, and what the inclusion on Ablett has done to their team.

    There's two ways of looking at Ablett in that clip.  The first being that he was really in the perfect position for the "cheap" one over the top, but Danger was too slow to acknowledge it, and tried to do too much.  Had he (Danger) got the hands over to Ablett, he was in a world of space.  But, it was Danger's immediate response to do the individual thing that saw him get crunched.

    That said, had Ablett put that shepherd on, Danger was also in a world of space (he would've blown Nibbler away).  Ablett's selfishness cost them as well.

    While a lot of what happened on the night can be put down to us just dominating the Cats from the first second, that passage of play goes right to the core of what's wrong with Geelong in general.  It's bloody marvellous.

    Back on topic, Sammy's just a nice boy who can play bloody good footy.  My love for him grows by the minute.

    A great night indeed SWYL. A crowd of 90,000 with at least 60,000 Dees fans in attendance.

    Yes. We can be a big powerful Club again with sustainable Hard Work

    to see the MCG full making so much noise that night was a beautiful thing and we should strive to be there every year

    It is our home ?

    No doubt we're starting to mobilise but we're a hell of along way off being a power club.
    That game was 12yrs of pent up frustration released and we were all there to blow the roof of our own dung heap right off.

    Yep. And a lot of them were not Members, but the opportunity is there, with hard work. 

    If 40,000 rolled up we would be in trouble, but that didn’t happen

    I’m going to be very unpopular here and say i’m not convinced.

    He is good at ground level but in the air I don’t see it.

    Even in that final the marks he took fell to him and he didn’t take them cleanly.

    i’m hoping it’s a strength thing and he proves me wrong with a greater upper body.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
