    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: 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?
