Who TF is on Papley??? The bloke isn’t getting within 10 metres of him

I hate Tom Papley so much that I’d love him to come to us.

Hawks are home. 

Top 4 locked in. 

what a day!

Not yet.

We still need at least one win to ensure Brisbane can't pass us, and at least two if Sydney beat Essendon (regardless of the result of GWS v Port, too).

How filthy would you be as a Lions fan?

Zero effort for 3 Quarters and then 8 goals in the last. Far out.
Top 4 on the line and they choke

We all know that feeling too well

True but if we can’t win one of our last 3 games we don’t deserve top 4. We are just about there. Very unlikely the others win all remaining games also

Will a Jeelong v Melbourne Final in 2021 be automatically held at the MCG with crowds being low?

There's a contract with the MCC that has to be honoured doesn't it?

The MCC/MFC alliance has to be worth something doesn't it?

Sorry, I forgot how this really all works - we'd be screwed over big time, but wouldn't it be even sweeter beating them on the one and only time the GF if played on their dung mound?

 

Is Eddie Maguire getting early onset dementia. Just stated Swans have won by two points and it only 3 qtr time.

After today Sydney finish with St Kilda, North and Gold Coast.

If they win today they'll have won 5 straight against 5 sides better than those three (West Coast, Dogs, GWS, Fremantle, Essendon if they win).

They are the threat right now. If they win today we still need another two to be sure of holding them off.

It is an outside chance. But Week 1 if we are 3rd, be ready for a Jeelong outburst 

12.2 in the second half to Sydney. They just can't miss, and Essendon can't stop them.

Sydney are a huge threat for our top 4 spot. The way they're playing it's hard to see them losing to St Kilda, North or the Gold Coast.

Seeing Franklin play well today really irritates me - he 100% should be suspended and sitting in the stands.

Could this be just  one more example of corruption at the top?  (Just asking)

I'm barracking for a Swans loss rather than a bombers win

Ok, ima try that instead. ?

Yep. We have to win 2 of 3 to make top 4. O fear that won’t happen. Looks like 5th spot for us.

Man, you’re making it so hard to want Essendon to lose. ?

Damn Swans getting the job done on Essendon I think.

We just have to keep winning. 
nothing wrong with that

Anyone caught barracking for Essendon could face penalties...

 

if the Giants and tigers lose there will be a team in the 8 with 8 wins with only 3 rounds remaining. We could have the worst ever finals  team this year

if anyone is wondering when we got to 8 wins this year, it was in round 8

?

So the status is this:

  1. Three more wins guarantees top 2
  2. Two more wins guarantees top 4
  3. One more win is not enough for top 4 unless and until Sydney loses a game (or Port loses twice)

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
