Hope the Cats get smashed tonight. Although no Nick or Steele makes it interesting.

Sydney and Bombers will overtake the Cats and they'll be 11th.

suck it

    Tricky games for the Lions and Port. Would be great if the Crows and Giants can turn them over.

    Geelong - Pies, can't make up my mind. Pies losing keeps the door open for top spot (albeit a slim chance), but that keeps Geelong's season alive. I think I prefer Geelong out of finals.

    Adelaide to upset the lions.

    Ditto GWS at AO.

    And we beat Carlton locking in the top 4.

    Upset alert!

    I feel it in me bones

    North will beat the bombers

    bombers are cooked, are missing a few and should have lost to WC at home last week. Cunnington and Wardlaw in for north

    Brisbane v Adelaide

    Percentage could well decide second spot.

    A high scoring close shoot out would be wonderful assuming we can't have a Crows win

    120-118 is perfect

    Probably better for us if Collingwood lose to Geelong tonight. It give us more options.

    1) We will likely finish higher than Collingwood on percentage if we go 3-0 and they go to 1-2, and therefore securing a top 2 spot.

    2) Should us and Port go 2-1, Collingwood go 1-2, and Brisbane go 3-0, we would finish third and play second placed Collingwood. Don't mind that scenario at all.

    Agree.

    Very hard to win at the gabba.

    But the crows will give it a shake, it's an elimination final for them and they have a pretty good defensive system.

    The last few weeks for us have been huge (our own results and others going our way), but this week is just as big. Beat Carlton, Collingwood, Brisbane and Port lose and we'll just about guarantee top 2. 🤞

    Definitely want Collingwood to beat the kittens. I cant stand their arrogance and Dangerfield saga this week is the last straw. [censored] them.!

    Norff to beat motley Bombers who get the rub of the green more than the bulldogs. Umps saved them last week. Useless.

    Crows a chance against Lions at the gabba. If Tex fires up so will the whole team.

    Can’t see all those 3 losing. 
    But, I said it before and it happened so who knows. 
     

    I am the most confident GWS beat Port. Less confident Crows beat Lions at home. Not confident at all that Pies lose to Geelong, who to me looked absolutely cooked.

    I have tipped North to beat the Bombers - at Marvel, Bombers not playing great footy, North can challenge but rarely for 4 quarters. Tonight, they will do it for Cunnington.

    Collingwood tonight. Cats out of the finals is sweet, sweet bliss.

    Collingwood to play again at the G v cats. They played and won there in Rnd 1. Why do they never ever play at Kat Park?!! Its like only 3 times in the modern era v our at least 25 times.

    Fitzroy have played more games there than Collingwood.

    Enquiry pls !!

    Important to wait until the very last minute of the very last game before claiming top spot! 😁

    Tonight I'll be watching Pies-Cats just to see if there's still a silly chance of it happening.

    Pies are only two games ahead of us so if they drop this one then the hunt is on for real.

    I'm clinging to a dream where Essendon pip them in the final round and cost Collingwood top spot, but then the Bombers still miss out on finals.

    Nope, its possible we could become favourites if Collingwood lost (3rd game in a row) and we won regardless of top spot.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
