I’ve never had this experience before. I’m watching the footy knowing we can’t win it, but that our best would crush both these sides.

What a weird feeling.

Agree, it’s [censored]ing embarrassing we were beaten by Brisbane last week

    And the Swans the week before?

    Why does every team seem to bring their best pressure rating of the year when playing us (Bris last week, Syd, Bulldogs, Pies).  Hard to watch when our best is so much better. 

    Because we got our fitness terribly wrong and teams knew they could outwork us as we were exhausted.

    Why do Geelong have sequinned shorts on? Are they going to do a cabaret number at half time?

    Not until they have won the flag

    Geelong are cherry ripe.

    They're just toying with the Lions. Watch for the dam wall  break.

    Funny how Geelong look fit and fresh. Wonder if that's got to do with management of players through the season..

    Hmm funny that........

    Lachie Neale- 1 possession in the second quarter so far.

    You stop him, you stop Brisbane.

     

    Amazing and yet he might win the Brownlow but.... CLARRY has never had a single digit possesion in any game ...much less a final

    Lions ball movement is treacle slow ... setting up the Cats defence to a nicety

    Amateur performance yet they beat us

    Our players will be kicking themselves watching this

    What's worse is that Geelong aren't playing that well.  They've got no opposition.  14 shots to 4

    Yes I know a few Cats fans and they’re very happy it’s Cats v Lions and not Cats v Dees. We’d given them a real match. Ffs. I’m still angry about last week. In fact angry and disappointed and hurt with our two finals losses.

    My theory is our predictable, defensive, static game plan invites it. Teams absorb the early assault from us and then as we slow down and play even more predictably and defensively they can apply maximum pressure around the ball carrier and run off us.

    That, plus a cruisy run into finals and a week off to freshen up.

    A blueprint that (sadly) seemed to work well every time.

    Watching this game just makes me realise how last week everything just went perfectly for the Lions. They had an unbelievably lucky night and barely made a mistake.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
