Interesting game. We shall see if the bears can play 4 quarters. I hate girlong but not writing them off yet though.

Geelong need to settle down and not get sucked into the fight. they are getting enough field position to be much closer than they are

I've been in favour of keeping as much distance between ourselves and the interstate sides in order to avoid an interstate final but tonight I wouldn't mind seeing Brisbane win just for the hell of it. It might seem unlikely but who's to say another mini covid outbreak in the metropolitan area won't see a final where Geelong are the higher placed team being moved down the highway to get a near capacity crowd.

Have to hand it to Neale. I’ve never been a big fan but his shoulder is farrked and he hasn’t complained, still copped the main tag and has made a big difference. Real courage and toughness

Commentators for this game. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

James Brayshaw the worst, most boring bloke on TV

Brayshaw is the second worst. BT is the worst.

Unbelievable home team favouritism by umps AGAIN. 

I hate the cats but the lions are getting the absolute run from the maggots.  
 

Cats get it at their home. Eagles are definitely another team that gets the extra benefit at home from the umps.

Our run home : 

Bombers MCG

Giants MCG

PORT AO

Hawks MCG

Suns MS

Dogs MCG

Eagles OS 

Crows MCG

Cats GMHBA

4 tough games against top 8 sides still to come, I forgot we played the dogs again.

In short I would love a guaranteed top 2 spot locked away before rd 23.

Yep, it would essentially be like having to play an extra final at the cattery in round 23.

A nice Covid outbreak in Geelong only prior to round 23 would be handy ?

Good practice leading up to the finals all being well.
May have to play the Cats in week one of the finals but at least if we did it’d be at the MCG ?

Be careful what you wish for. The Labor government would s4ite the bed and lock us down for a month and cancel all finals in Melbourne.

24 free kicks each. Did you miss the 9 straight frees to the cats in the second Q to try to get them back into it?

lions overall probably getting a better go with the umps but hardly unbelievable favouristism. The Lions have smashed the Cats, gone harder

If you were just looking at the stats for this game you could be excused for thinking the scores would be flipped. Geelong are leading in nearly all the key stats

Yes!  I was trying to think who he reminded me of. You are spot on.

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
