Worst possible outcome. GWS vs Pies. Has there ever been a worse final? 

Gutted for Brisbane.

    The soulless GilWS into a prelim, how boring. 

    There will be room surely for them to fit both their supporters into the G?

    At least it isn’t at their home hole with the amplified canned cheering  ?

    3 of the 4 preliminary finalists are playing very average football.  So many clubs will be looking at this years as a big missed opportunity.  

    (Richmond will win at a canter)

    Tomlinson ???  Gee, I dunno.

    There is literally no one to root for next week. I probably hate Richmond the least but knowing that at least one of Collingwood/Giants and potentially the Cats are in the GF is nightmare fuel. Eagles, Bulldogs and Lions were all far more tolerable options and they're all out! [censored]!

    Brisbane forwards have been a disgrace this quarter

    They kept bombing down the line to the area where the Circus had a spare.  Silly strat.  Then when they finally switched the ball across HB (on one occasion only in the last), they got it to a free in Robertson who instead of keeping the ball live and bouncing up to the Arc,  launched it from the wing resulting in a shallow ball inside 50 which was easier defended and that was that.

    He looks VERY ordinary at best.  Another list clogger.

    He was complete rubbish. 7 possessions and had a direct turnover which resulted in a Brisbane goal.

    Full credit to GWS at the end of the day. Showed composure when it mattered.

    We identify a need for outside run and the bloke we identifies plays in the ruck.

    Can't believe Fagan didn't get Martin back on until about a minute and a half to go.

    Was a little proppy with about 10 to go and went to the bench but you need to have your best players on the ground, especially the followers, in that last 5 minutes.

    Nice throw by the Circus which got the ball going forward for their winning goal.

    $600k... puts him into the top ten at least pay wise. Is he worth it ????

    Brisbane have had their chance... remember when we sold them wins

    Go Giants

    Played ruck for about 20 minutes approx SK.  Looking at the rest of his game he had little to no impact unfortunately.

    Our last 12 seasons, bar one, have ended even quicker WWS.

    Yeah, I did hear that RN , just watched the last quarter and I am being a bit dramatic but I was underwhelmed.

    Ugh so the premier will come from collingwood, giants, tigs or cats. I might just build a bunker somewhere and come back out half way through October. This is the worst possible outcome. 

    I do not want any of them to win. 

    But watching brisbane dominate in that final quarter was like watching melbourne. Had the ball but could not convert. What was with the players kicking to the boundary, why did the forwards all lead to the boundary. 

    Chris Fagan would be very frustrated.

    One of the worst umpires finals I can remember. They really lost control of it in the first half and Lions did a Dees in the second

    Richmond and GWS granny. I hate the filth and Geelong. I give GWS a good chance next week.

    Brisbane like us also got too many players sucked into the contests and leaving a GWS player to get free over the back in their virtually empty forward line with a couple of minutes to go was very callow. Back line should have been packed solid. Enjoyed Stefan Martin’s game though. Monstered the Mummy.

    Notice in the first half at least the number of times the ruckman took possession at the centre bounce.

    Duhhhh..... Goodwin

    Frustrated for a couple of weeks maybe..

    Bloke would be rubbing his hands together with the team he’s got on his hands. This years achievement was premature.

    Id kill to have what they have. They play for keeps...something out players don’t do. It’s all too hard..

    Luke Hodge retires - what a career he’s had. Looked tonight like he could have gone around again!

    What a game by Charlie Cameron after getting that injury in the first minute. 

    Hyper extending the elbow. Wow that would be so painful. But he played a cracking game

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
