Those are Melbourne times so only 6:50/40pm in Qld.

30 degrees and a stiff wind predicted for each day so it could be a tough slog for the competing teams.

Richmond and who knows with the other

Head says Tigers, heart says Saints.

In the other game, I'm torn between dismay that one of them will win and go through to a prelim and elation that one of them will lose and be eliminated.

 

Would have to be a mammoth effort by the Saints to get up against the Tigers tomorrow night. They have lost three important players and off field had the distraction of the Long tribunal and appeal. I’m not sure they’re as focused as they should be.

The Geelong v Collingwood game is line ball. The Pies got over the line last week thanks to a lot of things going their way. If they can keep up that momentum, the game’s theirs against an oldish side that are starting to look tired at the wrong end of the season. 

Tigers and Cats.

Saints without Ryder, Long and Carlisle will give a yelp for three quarters but lose by 23 points.

Collingwood were great last week, but will hit a brick wall after their trip to the west. Have a feeling Hawkins will have a day out.


I have no particular fondness  for the Saints but I’d love them to beat the Toiges. Just can’t see it happening 

The filth must be on a roll after fixing up the Weagles.  I reckon they’ll win quite easily!! They are also good value @ 2.35 on Sportsbet

Jeelong Straight Sets

The Saints will have a real crack tonight. Nothing to lose. Ratten will have them pumped 

 

Richmond over Saints, though I'd be delighted if this went the other way.

Geelong vs Collingwood? This is like being given the choice of dying from either Ebola or dysentery. 

I went 0-4 last week so I will say tigers and the filth. 


I reckon Geelong ware beating Collingwood.

This is a team that beat St Kilda by 10 goals on a Monday and then backed up on the Friday to spank Port by another 10 goals.

It would be an absolute indictment if this full strength side goes out in straight settys.

Sadly I think tonight will be on sided. If Ryder was in for the saints I'd give them a chance but I think the tigs will be to experienced for them. In saying that I hope the saints can win. 

I hope the cats win tomorrow night, only based on the fact I do not collingwood getting to a prelim giving them a chance to get to the gf. 


Geez it’s embarrassing we are out of the finals with rubbish teams like the Saints playing 


The holding the ball, incorrect disposal rule has reappeared! Been missing for 6 to 10 rounds but now back. Amazing. 

The MFC should be ashamed we finished below the Aints 

Seriously. There is nowhere to hide

i doubt any of the players are watching though, it’s holiday time for them

Cotchin tackle... would be 2 weeks for ANB

That was shocking, incredibly dangerous and Cotchin always seems to get away with it.

Yep, will probably get a fine for that but honestly deserves weeks.

In a fair system he would get at least a week but as we know it's not a fair system.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
