    I bet more than 1 person though the same thing.  I considered it this afternoon for a bit but didn't change.  Then you didn't expect this level of footy.

    WC get first goal courtesy from a non push in the back free and second from an unpaid push in the back. Umpires face palm yourselves.

    Had a giggle when the doggies fan gave a Bronx cheers to the umps when they were paid a free kick late in the game. Must be completely oblivious to the easy run they've had for the last 5+ years.

    Yeah I’m married to a dogs supporter as are her whole family (she’s one of 6), they firmly believe they deserved every single one of those frees over the past month and that the differential is just because they are first to the ball 😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣

    How are the Eagles players smiling and joking around with each other at 3/4 time? You're down by 51 points and you're laughing it up. There's seemingly a very poor culture at West Coast. I'd be cheesed off if it were Melbourne in that situation, particularly if we'd just had a year like West Coast had.

    Must be nice to be a Swans fans. Get a number 1 pick Heeney when you are a top 4 team so you never have to miss finals more than one year in a row

    Terrible day for the AFL. I think Good Friday is a free hit in terms of entertainment, and they serve up this garbage.

    Heeney is as good as Toby Greene but without the brain fades, and 10x as good as De Goey

    Footballers like Heeney and McInerny must pull this hair out playing in that side. Majority of Sydney players just play for themselves. Very poorly coached side to be fair. If they make finals hopefully it’s the fourth spot and we meet them in the first final.

    Highlight of the night, Frank Drebin. But a really good recommendation at the end of the clip.

    He’s better than Petracca?

    Would be very close.  Paul Roos bid Heeney at pick 2 before Petracca.  We would have Petracca as we had pick 3 but not had Brayshaw.

    Given that the draft points system didn't exist back then we didn't have to bid Heeney at pick 2 to force Sydney's hand to use a 'high' pick.  Their highest pick was #18 and that is what they used to match our bid #2.  Any first round bid  would have got them Heeney for pick 18.  So I would say Roos rated Heeney very highly at least equal to Petracca.

    They are different types of players, both are stars.

    Paul Roos knew how good Heeney was from his time at the Academy.  He bid on Heeney at pick 2 before Petracca,.  We would have also got Petracca as we had pick 3 but not had Brayshaw.

    Given that the draft points system didn't exist back then we didn't have to bid Heeney so highly to force Sydney hand.  Sydney had pick 18 so any bid in the first round would have got them Heeney for pick 18.  So I would say Roos rated Heeney very highly at least equal to Petracca.

    I know we bid on Heeney, like we bid on Mills before Oliver but we did it knowing full wel Sydney would still take them.

    Heeney is very good, but Petracca is top 2 in the league while Heeney is top 30.

    My point was we didn't need to bid him at #2 to force Sydney to pay a high price, as under the draft rules at the time Sydney only had to use pick #18 regardless of when he was bid on in the first round. 

    The rules were changed after that for a draft points system so bidding on Mills forced Sydney to have sufficient points to pay top price.

    I don't think Roos was messing around when he bid #2 on Heeney. 

    As I said above they are different players but both are stars.

    Shows we don't bid on Muppets - both Heeney and Mills are A+ players though we ended up with Petracca and Oliver which was amazing.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
