    You make good points 😁. Port or Brisbane winning would be somewhere in the middle.

    Yeah I don’t have to deal with Port supporters at all and all the Brisbane supporters I know are just very good people so I don’t care if either wins to be honest. 
     

    Coll/Carl/ESS/Hawks are just no go zones for me.   
     

    if any of those teams are in a granny then it means I automatically support the opposition. Don’t even need to think about it.

    At least we can defend to keep the score low enough to win on behinds. Port can’t.

    This is the tale of finals every year!
     

    It’s the reason why the phrase ‘questions about X game’ exists as teams weaknesses are exposed in finals. 
     

    Port will 100% lose to GWS next week. I can almost guarantee it. I don’t know what it is about them but they just aren’t built for finals and [censored] the bed.

    Correct me if I'm wrong - there have been zero lead changes so far this finals series right (after the first quarter)?

    Atrocious! Rookie error right there: when it’s on the floor and you’re looking at it close up the gap between the words and the coloured band seems sufficient. Not so much when viewed from afar. Plus, if you’re gonna use plastic for your backing, use the thick, better quality stuff so as it doesn’t look like an elephant’s backside.

    Also, it’s finals… splurge on some graphics ffs. There’s no room in finals for such tight-arseness

    Apart from Hipwood in the 1st quarter, the Lions are looking mediocre so far. Very little zip, with the occasional freak play for a lucky goal. Port looking very sharp and starting to kick straight.

    I’m just offended by the pathetic wording. 
    Sounds like they went to chat GPT and typed in “write me a banner for the Port vs Brisbane game”

    Port supporters are not exactly an intelligent breed Jaded, the busiest Centrelink is also in Port Adelaide.

    Their handballs too.

    The flag race really is right open. I reckon if you're GWS or even Carlton you definitely feel like you can steal a flag ala Bulldogs in 2016. 

    A Port win would suddenly open it right up again.

    I'd argue they're 2 steps closer to the last game of the year if they win too, so it's also factually inaccurate as well as being an affront to crepe paper enthusiasts everywhere.

    Honestly I love Demonland, with its literary and graphic design critique of opposition banners.

    Marshall would normally kick those two OOB and 1 behind. Port should be in front

    remarkable choke from Marshall

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
