I'm torn. 

Although, gaz finishing without a flag is a delicious thought. 

Carn tiges 

Gaz already has a premiership medallion ... possibly 2.

Choosing between Richmond and Jee-long is like deciding between cholera and typhoid. I don't know whether I'll even bother watching. (If so, it would be the first time since 1968.)

Brisbane didn't choke. Just not good enough. They played their GF 2 weeks ago.

    Each to their own, but I'm thrilled to be seeing two Victorian teams in the GF. State needs a boost. At least this way it's guaranteed that one large group of supporters will be happy.

    Sounds like I am in the minority here, but I’d love Ablett to finish with a flag. He has been an unbelievable player for so long now, still having an impact in big finals after 350+ games.

    Grew up around the time him and his group started in the cats VFL side, have always followed them from afar since.

    Plus, I absolutely do not like Richmond. They are a real smug bunch and their two big forwards would be in my top 5 most disliked players in the comp. 

    Go the Catters

     

     

    Bugger Ablett, he has two flags. And if he gets another one, that means Dangeflog is getting one. No one wants that.

    If I see that stupid smirk on his face plastered all over the place if the Cats win I will want to go and live in a snow cave in the Antarctica with the penguins.?

    [censored] or not, I’d rather a genuine champion of the game (Brownlow medalist, MVP, players association leader etc) cap off his resume with a premiership than some plodder like Jason Castagna win a third one.

    Point taken. We can only hope there are a few mishaps in training before Grand Final Day. I feel for great players who don't have any. RIP Robbie etc.

    This is the truth, Richmond would have so many ordinary triple premiership players

    There is plodders in every premiership team.

    Richmond and Geelong would be the 2 most experienced teams I am thinking? Big advantage in a season like this.

    I couldn’t stand the thought of Geelong winning yet another flag, and their supporters in regional Victoria getting to enjoy the win while us metro Melbourne naughty kids sit at home alone.

    Who wants Cotchin and Riewoldt to have 3 flags?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
