Does anyone know what happened to Nibbler in the second? Was on the ground spewing his guts up, and channel 7 didn't even bother to replay what happened before it

not sure if he just ran so hard that he chucked?

    I did some sums.  Hard to predict scores BUT

     

    Sydney win 95-65, their % is 128.2

    Sydney win 100-60, their % is 129.7

    Sydney win 110-60, their % is 130.3

     

    Dees are 130.5

     

    But we can win anywhere :)

    I'll be rooting for a 128-72 scoreline so Swans miss out by 0.001%. 😆

    Heard Goody say they will have 3 days off. 

    Does that mean the first finals prep training will probably be Tuesday, 9.30 am at Gosch's?

    What a great start for the finals series.

    Beautiful weather for them, hope a few take advantage of the Qld coast.

    Geelong's last month: Dogs (GMHBA), St Kilda (GMHBA), Gold Coast, West Coast (GMHBA).

    If Carlton wins on Sunday, that'll be 0 finalists and not a single game where a final will be played.

    Our last month: Fremantle (Optus), Collingwood, Carlton, Brisbane (Gabba).

    If Carlton wins, that'll be 4 finalists on finals grounds (albeit we won't be playing a final at the Gabba).

    I seem to recall Geelong having a vey soft run into finals a few years ago (may have been the prelude to the pre finals bye) and being crushed by pressure when they were challenged by decent teams.

    We will certainly be match hardened.

    Swans need to kick 35 points. That's if the Saints do not score, for every goal that the Saints kick the Swans need n extra 8 points.

    Presumably they’ll kick about 60 pts at least. So you are saying that means swans will need win by 80 or more? will be difficult but not impossible

    Great win, but FFS Jaded and the others having a whinge about Brissy getting the last two goals have a good look at yourselves absolutely pathetic 

    And you were happy about the Umpire gifting one? Since when does the non adjudicating Ump call holding the ball?

    Much improved field kicking. We took a lot more on tonight. Kicks over players heads running toward goal worked beautifully a few times. Put us in better scoring positions throughout the night.

    ANB was doubled over off the ball and I want to know who punched him in the guts. Surely there will be camera vision somewhere of the sniper attack.

    Yep, from memory there was a trainer with him before he threw up.

    I had a long hard look at the tackle and subsequent dropping of the ball… maybe you should have done the same.

    If we play Sydney in the Qualifying final, I hope we perform like we did in the 1987 finals series. Played out of our skins against more highly fancied opponents and absolutely belted them. I was so happy for Robbie.

    My first trip to the Gabba and the boys made it a good one. Watching Lions fans leaving at half time was something I did not expect at the start of the night.

    Highly rated The Kozzie Show. What a bloody star that kid is. 

    Bring on September baby!!!

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
