Grand final replay was the only way Gil could justify a Wednesday Night game. It was all about & and Foxtel. 

The betting agencies made $Millions on Wednesday night

    Game over already. 

    how do the Cats do it every year? They are missing 5 from their 22 too

    Because Chris Scott is a very good coach (as well as being very dislikeable)

    What lol

    Adelaide were 2 goals up at quarter time and only 2 goals down at at half time. They were absolutely right in the game going into the 3rd quarter. 

    The GWS game is absolutely no different to the Hawthorn's 2014 gran final. Both games were were over at quarter time.

    All Hawthorn's grand finals the opposition were pretty much done in the first quarter.

    We could argue all day Daz

    You rate Richmonds 3 in 4 years. I rate it a distant 3rd to Brisbane (1) Whorethorn (2)

    Hawkins could kick ten today. Essendon struggling to account for his size and strength.

    He might beat Buddy to 1000 goals if this keeps up

    Geelong are averaging a shot on goal every 8th disposal. 

    you read that correctly

    Not sure why people are upset at Geelong doing well.

     

    I get a great amount of joy watching them fail badly every September for the last decade and will be glad to see it happen again this year

    Essendon have at least stemmed the flow, but they have no firepower in their forward line to kick anything resembling a winning score.

    If you are going to get flogged like this might as well play at KP; at least you have an excuse.

    It's hilarious watching Essendons preseason hopes and dreams turn to dust. they are getting brutalised

    Don't we know about that. Its 21 scoring shots to 6. I think we'll lose top spot

    "what, exactly did we see in rutten when he was given the job as coach, cause, so far today, he has been well and trully outclassed and coached by Scott."

    And yes, I reckon "trully" says it all!

    Cats players must have had an extra bowl of tapioca pudding at the nursing home last night.

    Cats will run out of puff later in the season. They always start pretty good.

    But I’m pretty surprised at how bad Essendon is. They are making the cats look better than they are.

    Hmmm… what to do… 🤔 

    catch up on work that should’ve been done during the week. Or…

    Continue to watch Essendon cop a jolly good rogering.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
