Hawks playing okay. The SCG is a shizen ground for footy. Why couldn't we play the filth at giants stadium ?

They probably thought the SCG would get more neutrals (ie: Swans Supporters) through the gates but I doubt it will.

Would be huge if Hawthorn gets this win.

Look at Richmond's draw from here. They've been given an absolute platter.

They can easily slot into top 4.

Well to be fair to them, they'e already played six top 8 sides, but yes, after this week they only have two more to come.

Frosty. Gotta love his enthusiasm and athleticism, but not his higher cerebral functions. ?

Free kick Hawthorn in full flight. 21-9 at 3/4 time, Swans getting murdered by the umpires

Yes … the numbers are as stated, but how many have been wrong, or even “controversial”?

And who says bottom teams have nothing to play for now the final 8 is 'settled' (looking at you Derwayne on SEN today!)

This game looks over.

Sydney's next four are Port (away), West Coast, the Dogs (away) and GWS (away). They only have three games left for the season at the SCG (given they had one flipped to last week).

If they drop those four games, they'll be 8-9.

They'll likely win at least one, but this will hurt their top 4 chances.

Is this result good for us ??

Sydney are not really threatening for the flag but this might give the tigers a sniff of the top 4

Anyone beats anyone on their day.

So,

1. Adelaide result not so bad?

2. Beware Dees. Every week.

That's right.

Starting this week vs Collingwood.

Sydney's 3-1 against the top 8, but they're now 5-4 against the bottom 10.

They also have a great set of double-up games: not one of them is against the top 8 (GWS, GC, Fremantle, Essendon, St Kilda).

There have been at least two games that Sydney has been lucky to win.

The thing I really don’t get is the 7 commentary alluding to Sydney getting a raw deal with the umps. Please

This result has zero relevance to us at all.

Got to hand it to Clarko. he is a genius they way he plans for games. As some of the media said clarko has had 10 days to plan for this and how to beat Sydney. It is a good win. 

Jai Newcombe 12 tackles in his first game after getting taken in the mid season draft a few weeks ago. There is a kid that just wants to play footy and will grab his chance and make the most of his opportunity.

Spot on.

Top four competition is coming from Dogs, Brisbane, Geelong, Richmond and Port. I'm not at all sold on Port.

Record vs top 8 sides:

  1. Melbourne - 5-0
  2. Geelong - 4-2
  3. Sydney - 3-1
  4. Dogs - 3-2
  5. Brisbane - 2-4
  6. West Coast - 1-2
  7. Port - 1-4
  8. Richmond - 1-5

Richmond is Richmond, so they should always be feared, but they need to prove themselves against top 8 sides in 2021.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0
