    Credit to the Cats. They belted them.

    Onto 2023 and if we add a quality KPF and tidy up our ball movement then we can take it up to them.

    I switched off the TV at half time and took the dog for a long walk. Glad this season is over.

    Didn’t watch the ceremonials but did I hear correctly that Nathan Buckley was presenting the Norm Smith - the guy who regarded it with such esteem that he chucked it into the crowd?  Amazing.

    What a muppet. I can’t wait when they can’t make the 8 next year. It will be a hard pre season for the geriatrics that just filled their belly’s.

    Cats far too good for everyone else this season well done to them: but surely with the oldest team ever (I think I heard that) that’s it for them??

    Why?

    Their bottom 10 are not too bad and they can rotate and manage their oldies through a long season

    They were amazing

    Buckley tucked his medal into his sock, didn't he?  

    You may be thinking of Peter Moore and his runners up medal which he threw away in disgust.

    C'mon Geelong!!

    Couldn't stand the Swans getting a flag with all the handouts they get - priority "academy" picks Heeney, Mills, Blakey, Gulden, Campbell, poaching Buddy using their additional COLA Salary Cap, who knows what other "ambassador" payments they get to make outside the cap? 

    Plus my wife is a Cats supporter 😜

    You share a bed with a Jeelong person???

    Isac Smith should throw his into the river.  Just about the most undeserving of a Norm Smith medal I can think of.

    Just because they share the same last name.  Sheeesh.

    So after much reflection, I have very little interest in this GF.

    If I was to think about what is the best thing for the MFC I would say Geelong winning is.

    This is a team we owned last year and they went away, licked their wounds recruited smartly and changed their game plan from the boring predictable, easy to set up against game plan they had last year. It got them close but they were found out.

    Sound familiar?

    We blooded 1 new young player this year for 1 game. I know that we had 9 players 22 or under to win last years GF but there was no renewal with personnel and no change whatsoever to our game plan. Boring predictable and taxing.

    1. Any mystique about our much vaunted midfield was countered by many teams and is perhaps gone forever

    2. Fast ball movement against us saw teams break through our impenetrable defence and avoid the intercept marking our game was built on

    3. relentless pressure against us as the no 1 team saw us crumble in second halves

    4. Our scoring from the back half dried up

    5. Our fwd 'connection' was a disaster and nothing was done to fix it. Except moving a banged up Gawn to the fwd line which didn't work.

    6. We learned nothing from our 8 defeats that were in essence identical. IN 7 of them we were ahead by at least 23 points.

    7. Goodwin's mantra of not crushing teams but managing leads was a disaster once we became the worst 4th qtr team in the league bar NM and WCE.

    So. A Geelong win shows what can be done by making large changes to game plan, recruiting wisely and as importantly managing workloads (which we dismally failed to do against lower sides)

    And aside from that Sydney are so freaking smug, in players faces with 'toughness', pushing and shoving etc They deserve to be smacked down.

    Wow - just wow. amazing analysis.

    • 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.

      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.
