Not to lighten the mood or anything, but the Blues are looking a good chance to knock GWS off which might keep us in the 8. ?

GWS tanking?

Some very radical crazy moves by their coach with both Finlayson & Cameron playing in defence and they were already behind on the scoreboard so no, they aren't protecting a lead and there was more than a quarter to go.

We were fined half a mil for not tanking. Year in year out there's a scramble for the wooden spoon. Where's everyone else's fines?

Blues find all sorts of ways to choke games.

Regardless of the implications of a GWS win, I'll never get sick of watching Carlton lose.  Eases the pain of today ever so slightly.

That's really cost us. Giants have Adelaide, Melbourne and St Kilda.

Can't see us making it now. Today just shot ourselves in the foot big time.

GWS did us a favor 

Hopefully they can stay in.

Will spare us the embarrassment, and begin the process of a serious review and a clean out of the chaff.

As usual the script of failure continues to get written by our club... other clubs take their opportunities we roll over... not sure what more motivation is needed for this group of players anymore.  Simple we need to beat Freo, Gws & Bombers & based on tonites form we want beat any of them

I am glad GW$ won. 
We deserve to fall out of the 8 on tonight performance 

Now we will see whether there is any pride in the place

If we don’t make it heads must roll

Hate making excuses but Swans were there for 2 days acclimatised vs less than 4 hours..  not sure how this occurred, was it afl  or club decision??? 

If what you say is true, and I do not dispute it.

then there is a clear responsibility on the football department and selectors to get the side fit, mentally right, energised, and ready to play.   And not to play against a side that have had far longer Time to relax and prepare in place. Arguments should have been had with the AFL over this totally unfair or even playing field. 
 

out coached and out thought. Again. 
let alone playing a quarter and not scoring a goal!

Watch Brisbane they kick to the danger zone 30m out. Surprise surprise hit the deck snap goal. We never do that alway to the pocket

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
