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: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
