They're taking it easy and winning by 22 points.

Just get the win and no injuries and I'll be happy.

Hope you're right.

Last match against Crows, we were 16 points up with a few minutes to go .... then lost.

    What does Angus Brayshaw add to our team?

    In the position he is playing, zilch. But what if a mid goes down during the game? He’s good cover for that purpose.

     

    Back at the 'G next Sat according to Tom Morris ?? (forget his name)

    Running at 3/4 pace today. Understandable given the past couple of weeks. Just do enough to win.

    Not sure playing at the G in finals is all that much of an advantage to us. It's not like we dominate there

    That can’t be right, it’s their home game.

    We play better at Doglands.

    That’s it. This is a dead rubber. We just need to get through it

    The whole side has been in quarantine and Aeroplanes lately

    Prediction 8 goal quarter to the Dees this quarter

    I feel like it’d be a great idea to have 2 game day threads. One negative, one positive. I drifted in here at half time and feel like I missed the part where we are 12 goals down.

    🤷‍♂️

    I think the mandate today was just get it done.

    No need for a smashing.

    Kinda shows but at least we are getting it done.

    Also taxed after monday.

    Gus needs to do more as does kozzie.

    May be due to Sydney v Gold Coast needing a venue.

    Playing in 18 degree heat in August off 5 day turnaround after a red eye from Perth doesn’t help.

    Boys looked stuffed on the HT siren

    Time to put the pedal down a la Brisbane yesterday.

    The last quarter for the last two matches haven't been stellar

     

    Bravery from Smith!

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
