    Those 2 finals at the G in 2018 were special and without doubt the highlight of my time following the Dees. So looking forward to tonight after the tedium of that goddam pandemic and watching our march last year from my sitting room

    Pack the G to the rafters and blow the roof of the old place tonight fellow Dees tragics

    On the game, Sydney won't know what hit them tonight.

    Dees by 35 points

    Funnily enough I missed the 2018 finals because I was travelling. My family was there and it looked sick!

    Ironically, I was travelling again last year and got to see all the finals. The noise was incredible, particularly in WA. Never experienced anything like it watching the Dees.

    Would like to think that after tonight, I’ll be saying ‘wow, the noise level even surpassed what occurred in WA last year’.  GO DEES!!

    Win or lose tonight we'll be playing the Pies or Cats in a PF (if we make the PF) ... unless either the Dogs or Freo can win 2 finals

    We can end up playing the Swans in a GF regardless of tonight's result

    I've noticed May often gets players quite taller than him but I guess May has the most strength out of our backline.

     

    Special congratulations to Jayden Hunt who is the current Melbourne player (excluding Luke Dunstan) who has played the most games without ever playing in a final (112). Well deserved.

    Sydney eliminated in first final last year. 

    It will happen again.

    Also finals experience and number played in, really helps.

    We have much more finals experience than Sydney.

    Their nerves will be sky high first ten minutes so I hope we put on 5 in that time.

    No it won't. The loser tonight gets a second chance. (Will play Brisbane.)

    That was WCW a fortnight ago when still relatively calm. 

    unrelated: does anyone know if there’s such a thing as Red Bull poisoning? Asking for a friend who’s bouncing off the walls already.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
