Got to give credit where credits due. Geelong look pretty formidable. 

Dogs defence is not helping them. 3-4 goals out the back just shouldn’t happen. 

They apply lots of pressure, which shows they are hungry. We haven’t seen how they cope with similar pressure. Let’s see it in finals.

    I know we no longer play footy as a one-on-one game but surely if you are getting flogged as the Doggies are now, stopping Geelong's free flowing football with multiple free players becomes something of a priority. And from memory, you have to run - lots of Doggies players trotting around with little intensity.

    Dogs set themselves up to beat us. It was their final. They needed to get it done and they did. Shame for them that they won’t even make finals… 😂

    Can’t believe we lost to the Dogs. They look a second rate team. 

    It’s going to be hard for anyone to beat Geelong. 

    Fortunately finals are no longer played at KITTYLITTER PARK. Though I guess they may whine their way into getting one v Port or Freo
     

    Interesting that the BS about umpire disrespect early in the season has gone right out the window, at least for the Cats at KLP

    Then played really well last week. It was the best I’d seen them play for 12 months. I don’t think they got enough credit around here for how well they played against us. It took everything they had (and a bit of luck) to beat us.

    Digs and Cats both treated playing us like it was the Grand Final.

    The Bulldogs are certainly elite at winning the free kick counts, their getting flogged but have twice as many frees unbelievable.

    Dogs are a great offensive team but terrible defence. Marvel suits them and we inexplicably played an offensive game. Let see how cats go against best defensive unit in comp. There will be no out the backs and stroll out of midfield. Toughen up Demonlanders we have the firepower and ground advantage to take the Cats on!

    Maybe they (Dogs) should never think they are in a GF again - we mentally scarred them.

    The only thing remotely good about this game is listening to Luke Darcy Commentate the thing. Heartbreak creeps in…

    Saad really is like a small Sam Frost except not as good 1v1. He makes some bizarre moves.

    Don't like Cody Weightman very much as a player, but that was a bully act from Ceglar. Lucky there was no injury.

    Seems umpire dissent is no longer a thing. Well, not as far as Hawkins is concerned.

    Dogs are pathetic mind you, how did we lose to this team? They have collectively poo'd their pants like no team I've ever seen.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
