    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)?

    @WalkingCivilWar you would never sign off on this!

    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: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
