Richmonds already booked their finals berth today against Hawks.

If things dont go well for us next week we could run into Richmond in a EF.

Ugly.

    Still not sure who I want to win out of Syd & C'wood to increase the chances  we finish in the top 4  IF we lose to Brisbane (yes, sorry, I'm looking at the pessimistic case). I think in that case we want C'wood to thrash Sydney and Sydney to not get their percentage up in the last round? Views?

    I hope someone new comes into the footy market in the next broadcast contract.

    Kayo is the worst app I’ve ever used. A big international player will surely wipe the floor with the garbage tech we have to put up with.

    From what I’ve read everyone is pushing for their own commentary on all games. That at least gives us an option to avoid BT.

    No, we never wish well to Collingwood. Sydney to win by the smallest of margins. They (Pies) then lose again against Carlton and drop of top 4. That would mean that we either win against Brisbane, Sydney loses against St Kilda (wishful thinking) or Freo to draw/lose.

    Best scenario ....Coll beat swans but lose to Carlton r23.

    We beat lions we finish 2ND. Pies % is putrid.

    Cant rely on Stkilda helping us and swans % will likely finish higher than ours.

    Why do posters want swans to win. We cant finish  2nd. Imagine relying on Saints to do the right thing by us. Hilarious!

    You all must really hate Collingwood...lol

    I think most of us believe we are a good chance for the premiership as long as we are top 4, so not necessary to finish second.

    Would come down to which team  "Melbourne or Sydney"won by the most next week. Myself I would rather play Collingwood or Geelong in the first week.

    You do realise it’s harder for us to maintain second if Magpies beat the Swans ? lol 🤦‍♂️

    Exactly, best case scenario for us is equalization of points. Then percentage will be like a flip of a coin.

    If Pies win, we are likely 3rd, but FW final at the G against Coll if we beat Brisbane 

    But Sydney look a lot better

    So the reigning premier must fear some teams (e.g. Geelong or Sydney)? Not the best attitude to have going to September if you ask me.

    Have a missed the retirement of the red Sherrin - why are Sydney and the Pies playing with a yellow ball?

    P.S. Sydney will win this. Simply because they played North last week!

    Why is there a problem with having a preference?

    When I go to the Pub I'll eat anything...  But it's perfect OK that I prefer an Eye Fillet over a Parma

    Fear no team but we still need to finish top four.

    Do wonder how much last week has taken out of Collingwood

    And expect last night to do the same to Carlton.

    Would love to play Geelong first up but not sure we can finish fourth.

    I literally think we are a better chance to beat Swans away than to win a final at the MCG, where we’ve been horrible for all of the second half of the year. Conversely we haven’t lost an interstate game yet.

    Normally I'll barrack for the result the suits us best but in this instance i don;t care. I just want to see the pies lose because i'm sick to the back teeth watching them win tight matches

    And yes, I hate them as well

    • 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.
