I would love to see the cats get absolutely crushed but I would love to see us doing the crushing.

2018 finals win over the cats was a real highlight for me.

I'm vexed. I really hate Geelong and I've put money on the giants before Hogan got pulled.

Vexed!

    It's Friday night. The weekend is ahead and your footy team is safely into a Preliminary final. There's a game on tonight, two sides battling for the privilege of facing yours. You've had a hard week's work, and met a big deadline. You've just come home from a long run, and there's cold beer and warm chicken. You've just had a nice warm shower. Your playlist has shuffled its way through to "These Days" by Powderfinger.

    Just wondering - do you live in Vic?

    if so, you’re positivity is impressive!

    Exercise is the key. It doesn't matter what's going on in my life, if I'm not exercising regularly I'm not happy. At least COVID hasn't taken that from me.

    The Demons playing well helps too.

    I can't see the cats losing but I hope GWS dish it right up them even to make em sore for next week. I hate Geelong.

    I'm tipping the Giants.

    I reckon the game will be best won in the midfield battle.

    Any chance of more than 2 goals being kicked in the first Q? The Cats are going to drain the life out of this one

    You would have thought Jeremy Finlayson would have been Jesse's replacement. Wonder what he has to do to get as game ahead of Davis.

    Barely a Giants fan in the stadium (probably normal really), so yet another reason to want the Giants to get up, as the support will then be stacked for the Dees next week. C'mon Giants.

    I've got this really strong feeling the Giants are going to cause a massive boil over here. i've had it all week. noone expects them to win so they'll just go for it, and the cats are under all the pressure in the world, the Giants pressure, combined with external pressure could easily break the cats

    The Giants suffer more injuries than any other team. They just can't consistently get all their team on the ground at the same time. I hope they are able to muster some more fight and make the cats earn it tonight. Worst case is an easy Geelong win. I want to face a tired and weary Geelong next weekend

    Looking forward to see a lot of hammies and suspensions for the winner of this game.

    Still think Greater Waste of Space can win. 
    it may be hope, but if they don’t win, may they go out Swinging 

    Hurt those old Feral Cats

    I'm feeling the same way. Let's see if we're both feeling that in 10 minutes time. I thought Essendon would boil over the Doggies last week, so I'm not trusting my instincts.

    You've got to question their conditioning regime at this point. Even collision injuries have an element of preventability - high game awareness and good judgment.

    How many blokes can Mummy injury in 4 quarters? surely if Geelong win, they'll have to quite literally limp through

    Have GWS changed their primary home jumper? I've seen it earlier in the year but figured it to be a clash jumper. It's better.

    Danger with the oil again. What a figjam. Hope it doesn't drip on your boots cause you can't kick straight at the best of times mate.

    Was only a few weeks ago red hot favourites Geelong ran into an injury ravaged GWS and got towelled up convincingly.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
