Cats never miss an opportunity to boost their percentage. Always keep their foot on the throat. It's a lesson we could do with learning

    Yeah well if we had a home ground advantage, and were gifted players like Dangerfield and Cameron we probably would do it.

    Home advantage does make a big difference. Same with West Coast at Optus.

    2 teams I can not stand because they do what they do so consistently:

    Geelong playing like millionaires at home, and 
    The Eagles lacking soul away from home.

    Its been the same for 30 years.

    Eagles should just take the forfeit and save their energy instead of travelling. Fair dinkum letting this Geelong side put this score on the board is embarrassing.

    Imagine if we had an exclusive awkward shaped home ground susceptible to crappy weather and only play interstate and crappy sides at it. We could pencil in an average of a half dozen extra wins a season.

    What ever happens tonight, it’s now factually incorrect that we haven’t beaten anyone of note.

    Geelong are a reigning grand finalist who just beat a contender by 97 pts, and we kept them to 60pts at the G. It was a win full of merit.

    People should now be called out on this narrative if they continue to accuse us of it, if things go south tonight.

    You can only play who your fixtures against.  We have Beaton sides that have Beaton more fancied sides that what we are.  My concern for team development is winning is a habit.  We have shown we pushed we can steady and pull away from sides.

    And geelong mauling of the eagle smakes the Bulldogs wins look less meritorious: Wins:  Pies +16, WCE, +7, NM +128, BL +19, Suns +62 all at Mars/Marvel excdept Pies at the G.  Yet to play a team inside the 8.

    No doubt the Bulldogs are good but not as good as their undefeated run suggests.  Downhill skiers, beating up on the lesser teams; small wins vs last year's finalists.  Their test is yet to come.

    The Suns v Swans game shows that you can't rate a team or club on the performances rounds 1-6. It is rounds 7-12 where things begin to settle, new talent emerges, and those teams building for the finals start to look strong. There is also usually a late bolter for the finals.

    Rankine is SO over-rated. A few good games in 1 season and all the commentators are gushing. 

    Suns are better than everyone thinks, but still not great. 

    Swans came out of the blocks hard. A few injuries and they come right back to the pack. They have talent, and a great coach, but it is a long season for such a young list.

    I hate Geelong.

    I like the Eagles under Simpson, but they are simply unreliable. Their stars are going missing too often.

    Nic Nat better than Gawn. Hahahahahahaha!!

    Their best stars are getting old, not that has slowed down the cats either.  We'll see a mini-rebuild soon to sustain them.  Their massive home grand advantage almost ensures they play finals every year.  Look at last year, couldn't win a game in the hub but still made finals after regrouping.

    I'm so torn on who I want to see win today in the big game. I like seeing essendon lose and with the pies going the way they are to see them lose would be even better and see Buck's demise just get worse. 

    Maybe a draw would be the best outcome.

    Adelaide are dead eye. 11 straight. Whats the record for consecutive goals kicked.

    Nice high scoring game at Launceston

     

    Melbourne doesnt get a chance to kick big scores as we play in the wet every week.  Would be nice to play in dry weather for once.

    High scoring but some of the loosest footy I have seen in a long time. It's like Clarkson is using the Hawthorn side as some sort of experimental rabbit. Last weeek defensive and today as loose as guts.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
