i’d personally prefer a Magpies v Lions GF. with Lions winning of course. 

Will traumatise the Pies more. flashback to the early 2000’s

    ABC - Anyone but Collingwood

    My preferred winners in order - GWS (for Jesse), Lions, Carlton, Pies. I don't like the expansion clubs but GWS look the business.

    The Pies will be getting nervous.

    How good are GWS to watch at the moment?

    Fast, brutal, and most importantly, accurate footy

    We've lost Hogan, Jackson and Bedford on Goodwin's watch.

    Hogan & Jackson requested a trade, hogan homesick & mentally gone and didnt last with behaviour issues so no one trusted him, Jackson por of gold, bedford yes didn’t play him often enough in 22,by the thickhead coach

    Even though it sucks for us, I reckon this finals series is good for the game. Two elimination finalists playing prelims and at least one a huge chance of winning one. It’s not inconceivable that both GWS and Carlton make the GF.

    It also will give teams who are going absolutely horribly at the Bye cause for optimism for a long time.

    Yep.

    Collingwood losing a GF > Collingwood losing a prelim.

    Off to the Port Bigfooty forum and specifically the sack Hinkley thread for a half time giggle.

    Just stay on Demonland and read Hinkley wherever you see Goodwin

    I was just telling my partner about all he went through with his dad and then his diagnosis. He went through a lot, and I wish him every success.

    The only good outcome for 2023 now is for the Giants to win it all.

    An epic conundrum. Seeing them lose in the GF by lots and lots and lots of a kick after the siren would be the besybest

    Bedford asked to leave because he did not believe he could break into the team. The club offered him a three year contract.

    A really really good take on things! Chapeau!

    There's a lot of criticism about Goodwin but I don't think anyone here is crazy enough to think he should be sacked.

    Hinkley definitely shouldn't have lasted as soon as he has.

    A GWS V Brisbane GF would be an amazing outcome for humanity.

    I’m happy to admit I’m on the Giants train and will be pleased if they snag this years flag. 
     

    Their game is so good to watch - wish it was red and blue guernseys.

    Also, Hogan was "ill disciplined" but we're about to recruit McAdam and recruited Hunger lol

    I know we got good value for all of them but gee whiz, you can't ignore the common denominator of forwards wanting to leave.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
