Instead of finding this comforting, it's making me feel more anxious that we will look even worse than we already do if we lose to Sydney.

    McVeigh is a huge out for them.

    He is a weapon in the area we suck at. Everyone we have lost to this season has killed us transitioning the ball out of our forward line and into their own.

    Hayward almost just as big for us given his 'speed and goal sense'.

    Small and medium forwards have been killing us this year.

    Franklin won’t need to ping them 55 out from the boundary. He will be gorging courtesy of Joe the Goose.

    Never confident whenever we play a side with a big out...  never seems to go our way, like first gamers tearing us apart.  Often embarrassing.

    First round vs Port. They had about five top liners out!

    We know how that ended.

    WE have too many injuries, a suspect game plan under 666 and too many players with lost form. On a ground where we almost never win that is in bad shape, imagine how we will slip and slide.

    Think 2020 when we have a chance at the SCG.

    Got a mate of mine who lives in Sydney, he says the ground resembles and plays like any suburban ground in a non descript outland suburb and says it is far from being suitable for any form of sport at present!

    That must be worrying for the AFL??

    Why picket?  the same number will go to the ground and the same number will watch on TV no matter what the ground condition. That is what fills their coffers. If one game over the weekend looks poor or a player suffers a long term injury then too bad. Does not matter in the overall scheme of things.

    Tom Morris (3AW) confirmed that the game will go ahead even if the stadium is deemed unsafe, because they don’t have a contingency plan.

    Could’ve sworn GWS play at another stadium in Sydney....

    On a good day it holds 20k, facilities ordinary and no Swans signage .

    And in the end the afl could not care less.

    I booked flights (for me and my son) for this match a month ago.

    Given the above comments, and the team's start to the season ... I can hardly wait.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
