West Coast have the most feral obnoxious crowd in the AFL.

    We were spared humiliation by not playing the Weagles. Seriously the top teams in this comp are in another league compared to us. The Weagles have a deep list we simply have to many D grade players.

    West Coast fought back. Come on come out and smash the pies in the final half. 

    Gee kind of glad we aren't playing them tonight.

    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.

    Collingwood will win this. Hope I'm wrong but west coast just can't get free, they aren't manning up on pies players and I think they just thought they'd coast through this game.

    Liam Ryan is a very entertaining player to watch.

    I was saying the same. So exciting every time he’s near it.

    Can only hope that Kozzie is as good or exceeds him in a couple of years

    After watching WC v Coll game im convinced our Forward line is in need of a complete overhal.

    We are so far off a pressurized Forward line it ain't funny.

    Nic Nat sitting on the bench and grundy has had a hand in there last 2 goals. 10-2 inside 50s and west coast can't get a goal. Kennedy's last 4 shots have been behinds. Ugh bloody west coast, you had everyting going your way and you stuff it up. Now we will have to put up with collingwood for another week and I reckon they will beat geelong to. 

    I've switched off, cannot stomach the pies win.

    Watching all four finals matches shows our forward line is completely unbalanced and poorly coached. Needs an overhaul.

    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.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
