The Pies have to be the luckiest team in the comp in the last decade

Yep, in fact statistically the luckiest in AFL-VFL history during a H & A season, no?.

    The good news is that Collingwood will give the Cats a much tougher game than Freo would

    Geez gotta give credit to the Pies. Many thought they were cooked now and would have spent all their tickets.

    Pretty amazing run.

    Eventually but right now I give zero credit and zero $%&*s

    I detest Collingwood. I maintain my view they are the worst 16-6 and top 4 side the competition has ever seen, and possibly will ever see.

    They continue to win games when they are largely inept in key metrics. Contested ball, clearances, time in forward half, they are no good, but they get runs on late and their opponents [censored] the bed.

    So not only do they get to make top 4, but the Dogs, who have been limp all season, make finals.

    It's humorous seeing Carlton miss. It really is. But it's equally disgusting seeing Collingwood finish top 4. Sydney won't lose to St Kilda so it means one of Geelong and Collingwood is through to a prelim.

    My memory doesn’t go that far back, but I’d  believe you.

    I don't want to play the pies in a final. They remind of Leicester City in 2016. They just keep winning despite the odds

    Major umpiring blunder to McKay there with 2-3 mins to go. Was tackled without ball and pushed in the back. I’d be filthy. 

    There were a number of horrible decisions against Carlton in that quarter.

    The early mark to Cripps which was overturned on a block, when the block was caused by Quaynor pushing Silvagni.

    The missed push on Mackay.

    Still, Carlton had more than enough opportunity to win it without those frees. I mean, they only needed a draw, they had the ball at half forward with 90 seconds to go. What do they do? Kick to the pocket to a spare Collingwood player! Insane.

    Yeah but we don't want them beating geelong and getting into a prelim

    If we win our QF, fair chance we get them in our prelim. They lose to Geelong, they go through to a semi against Fremantle or the Dogs which, at the G, they won't lose.

    Woods get another close one.

    Wow, Carlton,  would have thought they learnt how to ice the game.

    They panicked.

    Free to Mckay and I thought Ginniven blocked Saad from the last marking contest.

    I reckon the pies will beat Geelong. They are battle hardened and full of belief. The cats have been playing practice matches

    • 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.
