As much as I dislike their coach Lord Farquaad.

They probably deserve it this year.

    And just like that, geelong now become the hunted, everyone will dissect their game plan and will play their granny against them every week, they have the weight of expectation. 

    They might be able to handle it fine but I'm glad our boys can have somewhat of a break from the overwhelming expectation we had every week. 

    With a short pre season and an average list age of 98, I don’t know how they go back to back. But I never thought they would win it this year, so what do I know

    I expect them to have an extremely tough draw in the 2nd half of the year.

    Don’t hold your breath. 19 games in Geelong straight coming right up. Special nursing home concessions.

    What a damp squib

    Swans won't be a factor next year. Not after this shellacking.  I'm not convinced by the pies or Lions

    It's us v the cats in 2023. I'm looking forward to it already

     

     

    100% they will.

    Up there with one of the dullest grand finals in history. AFL should be very disappointed with what was produced today. Geelong a good team, but not a great team. Melbourne 2021 would have monstered both teams today

    Bulldogs didn't recover after we belted them.  The same will happen the Swans I reckon

    Sydney are too disciplined and have too much good young academy talent.

    And with a few minutes to go,  BT says Gil must be happy with the half time entertainment without a hint of irony.

    No they won't. 

    Bloods culture?

    You're kidding. First time I've left a gf at 3 quarter time. Franklin passed it 

    May unlocked the secret.

    Dees will be better next year and at least provide a contest.

    Should have been us in the granny. Better team than the Swans but just couldn't find a way to beat them, disappointingly.

    And the loss to the Lions. Even more disappointing.

    The offseason is all about improving the team and list, coming back hungry with a clean bill of health, refresh the game plan and we should be seriously challenging again

    Isaac Norm is great. I dunno, it's good that Geelong fans can give Hawthorn fans cr*p ablut that. It's like the two things cancel each other out

    Swannies were very very average. Also playing Sam Reid underdone and dropping Logan McDonald is a HUGE mistake. 
    We would’ve done far better than this, play four quarters in the game against Sydney and we would’ve, we blew it. On to next year. Cats another year older. Bring it.

    A fit Melbourne the only team that could have got close to the Cats this year.

    Makes me more confident that the Dees game plan still stacks up - will be interesting to see how the Pies and Swans play next year.

    But Cats are the team to beat next year. They’re strong, fit and there’s no clear weaknesses across the ground.  We need to respond.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
