         Hawkins what a fair player he is . If he's not hitting, pushing or holding people behind the play, he's trying to drive them into the ground or accidentally put his elbow or forearm into no particular part of any body and I would hate to have a sob like him playing  for us..

    Why does Port get 15 days off

    We get 14 days off.  Shouldn't make any difference to either team.

    That was a bog ordinary game. 

    Objectively we are a much better side than Geelong and should win if we can avoid a run of goals like last time.

    Nonetheless I’ll be having nightmares all week.

    Well if we win the prelimin then we get the extra day break heading into the GF.

    Riddle me that. 

    Because the AFL wants every team to get a 7-day break in finals, there is bugger all difference between a 13 and a 15 day break and we got the easier of the qualifying final match-ups. If we can’t roll Geelong we don’t deserve to win.

    If we end up playing Port in the GF we will have both hosted games against the Cats and Lions to get there so same same. And you could argue we have a bigger advantage vs Geelong given the rest week.

    Plus we’ll get an extra day before the GF if we make it.

    Are you serious?

    There's no meaningful difference between 13 days and 15 days off. They're obviously going to give Geelong and the Dogs/Lions winner 7 days each rather than give Geelong 8 days but Dogs/Lions 6 days.

    And Port gets the "lower ranked" finals team in the prelim because they already had to beat the higher ranked finals team in their QF.

    Are you seriously complaining about this?

    Gives us the extra day off if we win before the Grand Final. We also beat the lower ranked team last week so a cross over has to happen.

    We got this folks

    I believe we can cover the Cats players, it’s the guys in yellow that really me on tonight’s performance. Not totally sure we can cover all of them.

    No goals by Giants until about 10 mins into the 2nd quarter will kill a team every time.

    We must come out with huge pressure from the start next week.

    The Giants had 2 players with less than 5 games played tonight. They have a mammoth injury list. 
    Cats were almost full squad. Danger can’t play with a tag. 

    Cats had 3-4 goals from pretty soft frees.

    I reckon Hawk will carry that cork into next week so time for May to get even.

    Given our last PF performance, I’m sure Goody and the playing group will come out breathing fire to make amends for it.

    Might just be time to review that game after all, Goody. Get the boys angry and pumped.

    At least 2 of Hawkins' goals were blatant frees against. Huge push in back and 'dont argue' to the face.

    Who were the umps tonight? They can [censored] right off till 2022

    Large number of our 22 didn't play in that game. No longer needed imo.

    Half the team will say about half the side in red and blue, "who are these doofuses and who let them onto a footy field?"

    Just consign that match to the history books and never look back.

    You challenge the best to be the best.

    It's as simple as that.

    We've had our break, now its time to crush these mofo's into submission. 

    No excuses or theories about 13 day vs 15 day break we just pulverise these [censored] into oblivion.

    It's a prelim final.
    They've been thinking about this month all year.
    They'll be ready to eat lightning and crap thunder.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
