The karma bus hit the AFL. Stopped, and backed back over the AFL. The AFL would have had their final round drama if the Keays goal had been awarded. And the reason it wasn't awarded is

I hope Essendon back Dodoro and keep him in for decades to come.

They were saying we are a chance to play Collingwood on the Thursday night but what happens if we cop a concussion tomorrow that’s only 11 days so they wouldn’t be able to play hopefully if that did happen the afl wouldn’t schedule us on that day same goes for Carlton and gws

This is like a 2 week bye with all these irrelevant games.

AFL are lucky they have no real competition other than B grade movies

PS: Gil etc will be thinking... imagine the excitement if 9 and 10 if not 11 and 12 were eligible for wild card play offs

Whately brought this up on SEN this morning.

I think his words were we'd tear the house down if say Gawn, Trac etc got concussed tomorrow and missed first final due to 12 day break.

Gil's got and getting a lot wrong so wouldn't surprise me, but we'll know 9.00 pm-. ish tomorrow.

Whateley also reckons Friday is the best day for such a final - Pies vs Dees anyway.

I think of a Thursday final is on the cards it should not be allocated to the team with the minor premiership. And just on this, these things should not be made up on the fly.

Go Norff !   lol

Thursday night QF is absurd. Is it BS or a strong rumour. Presumably  Friday is a working day.  ffs

If a key Melb player is concussed those dummies at AFL HQ better not shaft us. Of  course Carlton will have nothing to worry about their game will be 13 or 14 days out.

Pert better get on top of this before those AFL exec morons schedule the QF's.

If it’s Us against Pies, why would you schedule it before a school/ work day?

It would be biggest game of the 4.

That's rubbish, Carlton the AFL darlings get the Friday night?

It doesn't make sense to have a Carlton v GWS/Sydney on the Friday when the Melbourne v Collingwood is more attractive.

We should get the Friday night, they can give the Thursday night to one of the EF.

As mentioned above as much and as I don't like Cwood, it's the team that finishes on top of the table that should get the Friday slot .

Imagine the excitement if Melbourne and Adelaide hadn't lost due to AFL incompetence and there was more clubs fighting for a spot in the 8 and other clubs jostling for position.........but hey, why fix the problem in front of you when you can distract people and create another.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
