    Can someone please tell Bruce to shut up!! He doesn’t have to repeat everything twice or keep asking rhetorical questions. 

    doesn't he??!?

    I’ve loved watching both teams at stoppages, the amount of blocking they do to support/release their teammate is fantastic.

    Just shows how easy we could make it for ourselves with Max and our Mids with some quality coaching.

    Great 1st half. Would not write off Richmond yet. Maturity of the lions will be on show in this half. These 2 make port and geelong look ordinary.

    Collingwood won't go out in straight sets.  They'll only play (lose) one match.

    On the subject of Bruce - what the [censored] is a "hat trick" doing in the lexicon of our game?

    @Rab D Nesbitt?

    @Skuit?

    @Wobbly Bob?

    Gents, doyens, pedants,  is it appropriate language?

    A dusty martin turnover! That never happens in finals time.

    Well done Lions. Have applied enough pressure to allow the game to be decided on talent...and they have plenty.

    Tigers have won a lot of games by pressuring more than their opponents...the Lions wore it and look the better team on pure talent.

    Will take a huge effort from Richmond to win from here. 
    they can’t take a mark up forward tonight.

    Gee Brisbane missed 2 easy shots in the final minutes. Hope they hold on. 

    But it is good seeing the lions fans back at the gabba making lots of noise.

    Lions just left the door ajar at the end of that Q, should have put at least one of those opportunities away.

    Hope it down't come back to bite them on the a...

    Don't ask me EO. As soon as I discovered Brayshaw was commentating I turned the sound off on the macpro I'm intermittently watching it on. If somebody has scored one though they usually get to keep the match ball once the game has finished. Don't know if that'll catch on in the AFL however. Maybe CH7 could get BT or some other donut to present it in the rooms after a game.

    Lions seriously at risk of throwing this away with 4 behinds in a row.

    How depressing to think us and Brisbane were both bottom feeders not long ago... look at them and look at us. Good coaching is just so important.

    10.9.69 to 8.6.54

    Horribly irrelevant fact but that was the exact score that we beat Hawthorn in June 1989 out at Princes Park. Massive win by the boys at the time.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
