The cats blown away early but fought their way back to take control of the midfield shutdown Bont and Hunter and just lift their work rate across the ground. Gave the dogs no time or space to run and link up. Great coaching by Scott and effort by Danger and co! Wouldn’t hurt our boys and coaches to review how to shutdown a fast running team. Hard to tell on TV but was it as simple as Geelong going man on man after the first quarter to get the game into an arm wrestle?

    Dogs were two down on the bench for the second half, which I'm sure hurt.

    However it happened, that result helps us.

    Dogs have to win out to get to 10. They have West Coast, Hawthorn and Fremantle. If they lose once more this year, they can't do better than 9 wins and we currently have 11% on them.

    The fact that we're only a game behind them but we have two extra games to play really helps us. If we can somehow win tomorrow, we'll be so much closer to ensuring we finish the season above the Dogs. Will then only need to make sure we outpace Essendon and Carlton from there.

    If the Dogs had won tonight, our path would have been significantly harder.

    It looked like men on man to me Earl!

    Every time a Dog got a sniff there were at least 3 Cats to cause a turnover. Bloody impressive. They'll take some beating if they can maintain that form.

    I know it helped us with the dogs losing but gee I did want them to win. They did so well in that first quarter then barely kicked a goal after that. 

    Josh Bruce is a liability to the dogs. He does nothing and is a shocking kick for goal. 

    Typical, Wallis did nothing tonight.

    ? Oh well, top 4 and I get my money back. Could have been worse. Could have backed the Dees. At least I am a chance of getting my dough back.

    Is there any chance Port might play an away game anytime soon?

    Freo are  a sneaky chance vs GWS today.  A Freo-Demon double would be huge for our finals chances.

    That's the one we need. Hopeful.

    Two of their last three are away.

    They'll finish the season with 7 games at the Adelaide Oval and 10 somewhere else.

    Hardly complaint material.

    Dogs impressing me so much I just put $50 on them at 20/1 for the flag.

    What odds can you get now? Damn, football is a fickle and cruel mistress this year.

    gotta say, i find the constant referencing to gambling odds on this forum a bit yuck

    i have no trouble with people gambling, and i understand a lot of people love wagering, but given the dees' stance of 'love the game not the odds' i am not a huge fan of it

    Giants are up and about.  Their A players seem very switched on.  At this rate they will build a decent %'age.

    Hoping the dockers find their mojo, fast!

    Terrible one side umpiring - all for the Giants.

    Giants have a very winnable run home. They ooze class but cannot quite click... watch out if they do

    If the Blues lose tomorrow you would fancy the giants to take the last spot in the 8.

    It's certainly difficult on a forum like this to please everyone wwsw !

    Can you believe that some posters complain about my smut and sexist remarks?

    It's an odd world we live in.

    Regardless of what you may think of Toby G. He is one tough player who gives his all and we could do with a few like him.

    They just showed footage of Green giving the Freo guy a tummy tap/punch identical to the one Lynch got fined for 2 weeks ago.  Lets see how hypocritical the media are and if they go after Toby because he is a 'bad boy' of the comp.

    GWS found their 2019 form today and beat Freo by 6 goals gaining a 5pt %'age boost.  They are now 8th with a %'age of 101.8.  Even if we win tonight they will be difficult to dislodge from the 8 as they have a slightly easier run home than us. 

    But if we do win tonight we might dislodge the Saints from the 8.  ?

    They are out and will find it difficult to get back in.  But who knows, the last few spots are up for grabs.

      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?
