Giants should comfortably beat the Saints

Saints are one of the worst finals teams i’ve seen

I’ve got a cheeky couple on them for the flag.

    Goal Bedford 

    thanks Goody for ignoring Toby so much that he left the club 

    clearly has pace and goal sense … but goody preferred Spargo ahead of Bedford (ffs)

    It’s a good point - but is it Goodwin’s fault or the match committee?

    looking like a 10 goal blowout

    so much for the Saints defence

    Giants and Blues are dangerous to face in finals. the 2 form teams playing like they nothing to lose

    GWS far better. Ball movement much slicker. They’re mids on top as well. Could be a long day for the saints

    Hope our coaches and list management are watching the giants and see the importance of an outside game. We are all inside no outside. Their ability to win contest and spread and ball movement into a forward line that has motion and space whether it be fast or slow ball movement is a thing to behold. They are also very disciplined in their roles talls doing what talls should do and smalls doing what smalls should do.

    Haven't been watching, could the G's actually do some damage next week?

    Hogan would be handy right now

    Toby Bedford and Jesse Hogan would look great in our forward line...

    They could, it's like Collingwood from Rd 1 to Rd 10.

    They'll be playing Port, who is not that strong at home in finals.

    Just as the Essendon players are there today watching the game so should Goodwin. A fwd line of Hogan, Lloyd. Daniels, Bedford, Riccardi and only the one top end talent in Greene. Quick ball movement and kicking to a player’s advantage.

    Bedford whilst given some opportunity in 22 along with many others from Casey were ignored in particular after the 1st final loss to the Swans & made no changes to play the Lions

    Hogan was gone mentally hence why Freo moved him on & Penny finally dropped & out pick 6 got May & rest is history

    absolutely. defence is fantastic and they are quick and clean through midfield and attack 

    no idea how they were 3-7

    Saints look gone but they should be playing at Marvel have given up home ground advantage, would the Afl make GWS to play at a different stadium if they were hosting a home final???

    If the AFL wanted the other team to win then yes they would.

    Was this a portent of what was to befall the Swans tonight?

    Love your work WCW but I'm sorry to inform you the quality of the crepe paper used in each team's banner does not portent the future.

    Good response from the saints. It was looking like it was going to be a rout so fair play to them for getting back into this game

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
