Should be an option for nil all draw or COVID cancellation (kidding --- sort of). 

Pains me to say but I think the Cats will roll the Tigers. I can't pin my finger on it but the Tiges haven't shown the same hunger this year. Cats just keep keeping on. I'll turn the telly off at the siren as I refuse to watch Scott's smug face hold up the cup. 

First Goal? Mitch Duncan for some value for money at $34. 

Norm Smith? If the little Master even has a sniff of a decent game and the cats win he is a shoe in. Paying $21 too. Lock it in Eddie.

    Don't really care but I'm hoping Brisbane wins

    I was pinning all my hopes on them as they were the least offensive options of the Prelims.

    You get the feeling the Cats have their name on it this year.  easily accounting for teams recently and in great form.

    its one last push from the old brigade selwood, Hawk, Taylor, Danger etc.     hopefully they fall off a cliff sometime soon

    couldn't give a rats though. at least its a night game so I'll be so drunk I either won't watch the game or won't remember it

    Don't be surprised if a few cats suspended after the game- Selwood being one of them!

    Hopefully the rain is insane and they lose the ball.

    the sprint race might be the highlight of the day

    as long as not won by cats or tigers

    That being the case dc it suggests the rest of the day will be crap.

    I usually look forward to the Grand Final but this year it is not there. I feel flat about it. The whole year has been a [censored] up.

    Must say I'm quite hoping for lightning and the game is postponed.

    Very 2020

    8 finals appearances and first GF for danger. Terrible record. 

    Part of me wants the Cats to lose as if they win, it would vindicate all the glory hunters that have joined them over the years. When I say part of me, I mean 99.9%

    Much more than a part, I would love nothing more than for them to lose by 100+ points and be utterly humiliated.

    Will be the start of my 6th decade of no flags & watching other supporters celebrate.. hve only experienced gf twice which ended poorly by 1/2 time.......

    I really want to see both of these teams plummet to the depths for a decade or so.  Would have preferred a port/Bris GF rather than these two teams. Whatever happens, the outcome will be insufferable.

    Highlight of the footy calendar. 

    No. It’s definitely not.  It’s another sad day and year that we count to say it’s 56 years since we won a flag. Now the longest drought of the AFL clubs.  We see others celebrate and this year, have two clubs with multiple recent premierships. It sucks !!!!! 

    Surely the Demons (and Saints) supporters  deserve the chance to experience Premiership glory.  
     

    One thing to always take from the grand final is the players that succeed in grand finals.  They are not soft, light footballers.  It’s the blokes who love the game. They lift.
     

    There’s no rebuild garbage left.  It’s now. It’s 2021. It’s no excuses. It’s running through brick walls.  Bring 100% intensity or get out.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
