Bad option by Kelly to handball inboard. He had players loose on the outside.

    Never do I support a Pies win, but gees it’s nice to see West Coast lose at home. A really good win in a very tough season for them in terms of injuries and travel. But they made no excuses and got on with it. 
     

    And once again.... bad goal kicking is bad football.

    And to think - we towelled them up

    We toweled up an injury riddled out of form version of them. They just beat the Eagles in Perth in finals. Credit to them. We didn’t even get close to doing that in our best year in 15 years!

    Pies made no excuses and got the job done. We need to grow up and start doing the same. No more excuses!

    Ugh 1 point. All those opportunities they had in the beginning of that final term and couldn't kick a goal. 

    I hate you west coast for inflicting another week of us having to hear about this win, having to hear the pies for another week in finals and hearing and seeing Ed be happy.

    After watching the game live tonight (dogsvsaints) and after a few beverages during and after the game we are so far off being a finals side it’s not funni. 
     

    Goodwin better pull his finger out of his backside if we are to be any good next season. 

    Actually, if Naitanui plays against the Doggies in Round 16 we would have been a finals side.

    Are you telling me all those Collingwood supporters live in Perth? Something fishy going on here. Looks like people smugglers were busy this week getting certain groups across multiple borders. Or did they arrive via boats.

    So it's certainly worth noting that Port, Brisbane, St Kilda and now Collingwood (who look like they're home) are through.

    Of those four teams, Port we failed to turn up, Brisbane we were a simple set shot from Harley away from winning, we beat St Kilda and we beat Collingwood.

    We missed a shot after the siren to Geelong and stopped for a quarter against the Bulldogs and Richmond. The latter game we used the ball terribly in.

    Despite not getting the job done this year, it has to be said with a few tweaks, a few new additions to the best 22, another pre season under Burgess, Goodwin's job on the line and increased consistency and we're not a world off 4th-6th position next year.

    Yeah, I don’t really get the consistent ‘watching these games we are a mile off’. I really don’t think we are.

    love seeing the west coast get beat in Perth and their feral supporters losing their minds.

    That was another cracking game of footy. A bonus Eddie wasn’t at the ground so we didn’t have to see his face on tv.

    You have to admire a side that can go over there and win a final.

    Pies played very well. I fancy them to beat Geelong next week.

    And can I also just say how happy I am that they stuck it up WA and their moronic premier who is keeping his borders shut for financial rather than medical reasons. 
    He has been a [censored] since day one. Made it as hard as possible for the AFL. Serves him and his team right (I assume he’s an arrogant WC fan just because he carries himself like a total [censored])

    Pies didn’t have to make excuses. In the last 9 rounds of the season they had 7 games at the Gabba, travelled out of Queensland once (to Adelaide v Adelaide when they were at their worst) and had a bye. Well done to them but they really had an armchair ride into the finals compared to us.

    We are a VFL side compared to 3 games this weekend. 
    i hope the Club realize it. 
    The Filth went over there and refused to lie down. Refused 

    That is what this Club has to believe as a Standard otherwise we are wasting everyones time. 
    People say Cox can’t play AFL

    He plays really well in Finals...

    Stop making excuses! We need to grow up and get past this mentality as a club and as a supporter base.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
