Port and Geelong won't go anywhere until they fix their respective inherent problems.

Geelong's gameplan doesn't work in finals.

Port cannot deal with pressure.

    Anybody just see that power fan giving Dixon the middle finger on the boundary? 
     

    Absolutely horrible.

    This game was there for Port if they hadn't been so awful in the first half.

    Dogs have kicked 3 goals since half time, and look nowhere near as slick as the first half.

    Good point Titan but maybe a bit of tempo footy in the 2nd half as well...

    If I can stay awake I might hang on for the Brentford game at midnight.

    A fit list and home advantage and this is the best Port can muster. They don;t deserve to be in a prelim

    Absolutely spot on.

    For both Dogs and Dees, our gameplan works and we both deal well with pressure.

    Bingo.

    Geelong's game plan is soft.

    In Port's case, its some of their players.

    Can't deal with pressure and don't work hard enough to close down space when they lose possession.  Too many prefer to guard space instead.

    Fumble fingers from too many tonight also whereas the Dogs were very slick / one touch in that first half.

    Credit to the dogs. Finish 5th travel everywhere and come out and out this performance on. 

    But I'm sure Goody will look back on where we went wrong last time they beat us. Macrae and Bont performed well and we have to clamp down on Caleb Daniel as he was allowed to do what he wanted. 

    I feel we have the advantage with Maxy in the ruck and hopefully our forwards can stand up and kick straight. Naughton will need to be kept quiet. 

    It's going to be a good game.

    Bailey Smith is absolutely on fire. He is killing them. I have no idea who plays on him.

    Port are seriously just woeful. This is the most disgraceful finals performance I’ve ever seen.

    I guess it's fitting that the best two teams of 2021 end up in the Grand Final together, but if the Bulldogs win in a fortnight the AFL must scrap the pre-finals-grand-final-whatever-final bye.

    We should not be disadvantaged for finishing as minor premiers then winning both finals, while another team (who blew up their top 4 position) is rewarded with a week off to rest up before the big dance.

    It was already a farce back in 2016, it will be even worse with the last-minute scheduling change in 2021.

    The AFL would be hating Dees v Dogs grannie. Our band wagon will be a little lighter in two weeks.

    Really chuffed though that two under dog teams are going to be going at it.

    Hinkley is probably hosting the boring luncheon. It’s titled “how to choke”.

    Hinkley looks bored at times.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?
