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.

    Stevic is the best umpire.

    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!!!

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
