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: 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?
