A better spreadsheet of the Brisbane scores to make top 4.

There is no need for that spread sheet @Demonland, the only thing that will be getting spread this arvo are the cheeks of West Coast's collective butts.

    First of all let's just win tonight then we'll start talking.

    Outside of the MCG and Marvel where in Australia have the Dees played there best Football and their record has stood up in the past 5 years?

    Answer: Adelaide Oval its a no brainer, logistically its a 1 hour flight, the players love the ground.

    What more is there to say.

    You live there so you can get along to support the team. And bring along as many crows fans as you can muster (if we are playing Port)

    The Blues would have to be as kind in their farewell of Teague as they were in his first game as coach. Can’t see it happening because he’s lost the players.

    Brett Ratten the only half decent coach at Carlton in the past two decades was sacked by the club. The other half dozen coaches were sacked by the players. Expect a 100 points loss to farewell Teague.

    probably likely......

    .....but, sometimes these situations go the other way

    We farewelled Roos with a 100 point loss. Shameful effort from our players that day

    Not sure of the logic here. 

    If we win tonight, we can still end up in Adelaide for the prelim - they win their first final, we lose ours. Puts us in their half of the draw. 

    Sorry your right, I just felt this was the most unlikely scenario.  They would need to beat the Cats in week 1. If not then they will never have a choice of ground for the Prelim. Anyone playing them from the Week 1 winners will opt for Gabba or Optus I would have thought.

    I just want what's best for the footy club home state aside.

    Yep that really gave me a sour taste, he deserved so much better from the players.

    I always had a soft spot for Frosty with his effort and aggression (and still do) but christ im happy with May/Lever/Petty down back and not stressing seeing him near the ball.

    He did everything right in the last contest getting in front to take a game winning intercept mark only for him to fumble it and his man kicks the game drawing goal.

    Bachar Houli has been the only likeable bloke on that team. And a very good player as well.

    Brisbane have kicked 40 goals the last 2 weeks. Think I’d rather play Port

    Who have they played! Pies and Dockers...not what you would say are great defensive teams with lots of talent on song.

    What a fix up that was at the MCG.

    kind of fitting and sums up 2021 with that draw. Deep down Clarko would not be happy with his team giving up the last 5 goals.

    Looks like the Eagles can be bothered today. Lions will have to work hard to get the percentage they need

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
