Ok, the path is set.

We know we have to beat geelong and one of port/bulldogs. It suddenly feels very real. 

 

The year's four best sides get there. Dogs vs lions you could barely split them, in home and away, and in finals. But we're here now. 

Dees vs Port clearly the bookies choice.
Dees vs Dogs is not without a chance.

Cats vs anyone can GDIAF

I’m not going to going to lie. I’m an instant nervous [censored] wreck whenever I think about the next two weeks.

Great game and effort by both sides tonight but Port will pump the Dogs, 70+ points. 
Bont injured, Weightman out, no ruckman, 1 tall fwd, Port off the weeks rest. 

 

Port have one of the most vacant freeway drives to a GF in recent memory. They couldn't stuff this up

I may be wrong but pleased we don't face dogs midfield till gf. Cats have a couple of potent forwards yes. But dees have appropriate AA defenders. Plus others. 

Cats midfield is manageable. 

Happier port have dogs.

Yeah that's probably a fair point depending on how these sore guys pull up. 

Fox Footy were saying just before that Cody Weightman could potentially play because he was subbed due to a head knock but not ruled as concussion? 

Did anyone see that?

Someone must've put a gun to the Doc's head in the rooms.

Yes, same thing apparently happened with a Collingwood player throughout the year and the AFL didn’t let them play the following week. So will be very interesting what happens this week.

What the [censored] is the difference? You get a head knock that renders you unable to play out a game. Is that not a concussion? I’m very confused by what is a head knock so severe you can’t play, if it’s not a concussion 🤷‍♀️

Port had the easiest run into finals and will have major advantage for prelim of any team.  Hope it’s us and dogs for big dance.

Bloody ridiculous if you can’t play the next week just because are subbed out. Unless you are concussed. Play on!

Not a doctor, but I imagine you could cop an injury that fractures your skull but does not cause a concussion. Conceivable I suppose.

It might depend on how he came off the ground, was he groggy and stumbling off the ground?

I didn't see the incident was he assisted by medical staff or players?

Sounds very suspect though.

  • 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?
