Finals 2022: Week 02

Featured Replies

Have a look at Collingwood's kicking skills. I hate saying it, but it is brilliant to watch. 2 x Daicos, Elliot, Pendlebury, Crisp and on it goes. Unpressured or at a flat out sprint, they hit targets. 

And jut as I type that, they make a bundle of errors in a row.

Pies have entered the dreaded zone of indecision .......... 26 points up

They're doomed

Melbourne have a patent on that one.

Speed kills on the G and we don't have enough of it. At the game and the Pies are so quick. Also leaving Elliot deep forward makes the Dockers second guess their defensive structure. We need fresh outside legs and fresh ideas in the box as well.

I have sometimes wondered if a “Pagan’s Paddock” with Kozzie as the  sole forward with the ball kicked deep over his head running in to goal would be worth a try.

Hunt to the wing? Between Langdon and Hunt we should be pretty quick and explosive on the outside. Use Bowey as a link as well, Trac is explosive from the middle of the ground and kozzy plus Bedford in HF


The commentators are dead set cheering for the Pies! When Schlutz took that great diving mark it was - oh, I think he might have marked it - in a full tone. 

Pies remind me if us in 2018. Young team with nothing to lose.

Sure they’ll get smashed in the prelim but it’s fun to watch

Interestingly, they are ranked #18 for kicking efficiency this year.

Agree with that, except for the getting smashed bit.

Collingwood will be competitive against Sydney next week.

Make no mistake.

If the Swans let them…


Why couldnt the Pies kick like this against us.

Freo's disposal and ball movement worse than us


The commentary openly barracking for Collingwood is why neutral supporters hate Channel 7. Just call the game!

Collingwoods last 13 scores - 1.12


Great to see push in the back has made it back in to the rule book. Not sure where it was last night 

Utterly embarrassing from Fremantle.

Pies even more inaccurate than us last night but at least they aren't allowing the opposition a [censored] easy chance to get back in the game, unlike our breathless capitulation against Brisbane.

Can only imagine how badly we would've blown this match if we were playing against Fremantle instead of Collingwood.

Abundantly clear how much you need to pressure your opponent in a final. Still gobsmacked by our lack of intensity last night.

Absolutely disgraceful that Pies will have a better season than us when you compare the stars we have.

Honestly - thank [censored] we lost last night. We are not right this year. But the positive is I don’t have to see us lose to the Pies or even worse the Cats

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

  • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
