Swans are a very good football team in the making and will be around the mark for the next 3-4 years.

    I still see it as hate.

    You can dress it up as you like.

    You group think, separatist who believe the other should be like you or they are what, "d..k h..ds".

    Why if peoples attitude are not ones you agree with should they be singled out as unacceptable and ridiculed, possibly even ostracised by the "true thinkers".

    I think many years ago there was a "most punchable head thread" all in fun.

    Pies look cooked. Ginnivan done his hammy which is massive. I reckon the blues are a real chance next week

    How much did Lingers comment motivate the Pies last week? I think there was an element of emotion they played with which always lifts a team, however it’s non sustainable as we can see today. 
     

    That and the loss to the Doggies were complete brain farts and will likely cost us top 2 and probably top 4.

    Well if we beat Lions, odds are we play them in Sydney. Are you happy with that?

    At least it’s a double chance and to date we haven’t lost interstate this season.

    Whats BT on about, a win over Carlton wont give Collingwood a top four spot.

    As lions and us play each other if Pies win they are too 4 as Freo can’t catch them

    Yep. The Pies bubble has finally burst so I can start listening to radio again without having to hear all the nonsense about how good the Pies are.

    The Blues should do a number on them and give us a crack at top 4.

    They will usually as they get gifted high draft picks when they finish top 4 due to their academy. Mills, Henney, Blakey etc. completely biased system

    Don't have much faith in the Saints winning next week, but at least they will know if they can make it and what they have to do.

    We could finish as high as 2nd pending % either host the swans or at the scg,  lose & finish 6th then play the tigers..

    Those loses may come back to haunt them!

    Not the happiest Mr Leg, not the happiest.

    Been around town today so had to rely on the experts for the calculations.

    I think we must win for top 4.

    Cant see Freo or Swans losing.

    If we lose to Brisbane, we need two of Carlton to beat Collingwood, GWS to beat Freo and St Kilda to beat Sydney to happen. I realistically think the first is more likely than not, the second not a long shot at all as GWS are great when they’re on, they’re at home, and might put one last effort in for the coach. The last is very unlikely as St Kilda are way off with an unreliable full-forward, albeit they would have beaten the Lions if they kicked accurately.

    If we win, it’s simple, Sydney at the SCG in all likelihood. Don’t see that as an issue, esp with the pre-finals bye meaning no consecutive weeks of travel, plus the added incentive to win that and get another week off before a home preliminary final, potentially even against Freo (based on my ladder predictor).

    Saints have nothing to play for unfortunately. They will be busy ordering their mad Monday entertainment

    Pride, as silly as it sounds. I don’t think they’ll win but their ladder position won’t change regardless of the result. Hopefully Ratten has them fired up to go out with a fight.

    Only 2 each way games next week. 
     

    Dees v Lions

    Blues v Pies

    With the exception of the Saints all the other lower placed teams risk moving down the draft order should they win.

    He’s a terrible umpire and seems to have it in for us. So here’s hoping.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
