A premiership is a premiership whether won against interstate teams or not

If our 4-peat involves 3 interstate clubs, I'll reluctantly take it.

    Hawthorn won theirs while the rest of the comp was hobbled by the compromised draft with the introduction of both GWS and GC IMO.
    Meanwhile they cherry picked clubs filling their needs with player looking for "success". 
    Found themselves in the right place at the right time.

     

     

    Exactly.. they had an easy run more then anyone.

    Brisbane did it harder then both. Should have had 4 in a row had the AFL not [censored] them over with the travel.

    Their dynasty [censored] all over Hawthorn and Richmond.

    Honestly this game is so poorly skilled. I’m having PTSD of Melbourne pre 2018.

    Brisbane are the best team I’ve ever seen in my life. They were unbelievable. Every single line was full of absolute stars

    Essendon 2000 were incredible. (washes mouth out with turpentine.) Not the same star power as Brissie 01-03 but a near-perfect machine. Curse them.

    Nup given up again. Saints get the lead then in the blink of an eye they're 3 goals down again. 

    They got Melbourne’d 😁


    It makes me irrationally angry to watch De Goey playing football. This scum should be in jail.

    Melbourne Victory'ed? Melbourne Storm'ed? Please do not associated Coll... I can't type it out ... that club with the mighty Demons in any way shape or form!

    That "deliberate" OOB shows (like in round 23 2021) that umpires have zero understanding of the game. Why would they, and it bounced in an off break 4 or 5 times.

    I cannot with St Kilda. Their ball use makes me so angry.

    Essendon cheated the salary cap in 2000.

    That was actually déjà vu!

    Richo said almost the same thing (about trying to keep it in) re Gussy’s deliberate in round 23

    Honestly, can’t recall seeing a team so bad at executing a handball as this Saints team

    You don't remember the Dees handballing to stationary team mates for 15 years straight? And missing that target.

    Well, at least we should be able to beat one of these teams when we play them.

    Sorry, having flashbacks.

    God this is shocking viewing but strangely entertaining. It's good to be premiers.

    Saints lost it as much as Colonwood won it.  

    Not much to get excited about either way, IMVHO.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
