I always liked Sydney tbh, never really hated them. I just want to see Scotts face if Geelong lose lol

The outrage of Scott after a loss - and such an important game, at that - is what I am patiently waiting for as an end-of-season pick-me-up.

The filth need to get over it. Been a long time since I've heard whinging last this long. It wasn't even a clear push, no-one can prove the amounting force used. No hands in the back rules anymore either. We mostly just think it was a push because it looked bad from our position watching from a million miles away. LET IT GO.

Paddy McCartin, 5 years at the saints and 8 concussions, out of the game, career finished. 
I want the swans to win for him. (And cos I really loathe Geelong and their self satisfied, smug coach)

Would prefer to see Syd win but realistically given them no chance. Reckon Geelong by 10+ goals.

Tend to agree with your large margin.

8 of the last 12 grand finals have resulted in that comfortable 5 plus goal margin as the winning team gets on wave of momentum and the loser loses the will to remain in the game.

There is that sense of destiny and inevitability about Geelong this year, while I was very unimpressed with Sydney’s second half last week. They played to not lose the game rather than winning it. That won’t cut it today.

I’d be more relieved than happy if Sydney won.

The guy who got my ticket for the grand final is staying over to watch it with me. There was one positive light to it being interstate or we’d never have met.

We spent last night watching the 2021 grand final and he told me all about the experience of being there *sigh*

My dreaded incontinence has returned.

Cannot stand seeing all the home-town fanfare, joyous people in awfully mismatched colours, all descending on our own dancefloor. May the heavens open up today again & add a Dan Andrews-type misery to it all.

Game day.  Last year i was confident but nervous.  Stuck in lockdown and couldn’t go.

this year its Geelong and Sydney.  I dislike Geelong, but admire what they have done this year in taking the [censored] gameplan and improving it (we did nothing of the sort).  I hope they lose.

Both Sydney and Geelong get armchair rides from the AFL in different ways. 

We were not good enough this year, but until about 5:30, we are still reigning premiers.  After that, I hope we win the off season…

Swans by 11 points (“Luke {Parker}, you are my only hope”!)

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
