32 touches, 3 goals, 12 marks and 771 metres gained.  It's not a bad day's work, let's be honest.

Fair call.

I noticed the goals, but not so much the other stats.  Didn't really jump out at me amoungst the overall routing which the Swans were given, probably because I lost interest and was only half watching the game.

    No.  At Gate 2 The only turnstile to leave without scanning, which is open around 3/4 time each game, was padlocked closed on Saturday. With security only allowing staff in and out withour scanning.

     

    Are you sure? That would have been a potential fire trap if gates were locked. 

     

    Have never seen it before at the G

    You know what's making me laugh, all the collingwood fans saying we would have out up a better effort and given a closer gf. you gave up the first 4 goals at the start of the prelim, you can't do that.

    If we had fit players and tom in our team we could have probably won. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

    It's the easiest thing in the world to say after the fact. They may well have but we'll never know, I personally thought Sydney were the best matchup with high pressure and run and I'm not backing away from that. 

    Collingwood had a great season but I'm not sure anyone could have touched Geelong on Sat. A fit Melb would probably have been the best bet but I could see Collingwood getting smoked the second time round.

    checked it out personally.

    Heavy duty chain and padlock

    Presumably they would simply open all turnstiles to allow exit in an emergency

    Very poor by Sydney to let Hawk get one goal like that, never mind 2.

    Had to laugh at Titus O'Riley's description:

    "Sydney fans held their faces in their hands as they watched Tom Hawkins pluck the ball out of the ruck, not once but twice.

    It appeared the Swans players had never seen this before, even though everyone in the stands predicted it was going to happen as the ball was thrown in."

    Collingwood supporters at my work don't just think they would've gotten close.

    Collingwood supporters at my work thing they would've beaten Geelong,

    .....just Coz they led Geelong at times during the qualifying final.

    Solid theory.

    Just got an email from the MCC

    What a wonderful AFL Finals Series we had this year as we finally welcomed back September action to the MCG.

    Are they serious?  It was a terrible series and the GF was a shocker.  Someone obviously slept through September.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
