I suppose Maynard knocking Cox out in friendly fire and the Pies losing by a point next week would be karma 

If the Lions have any brains - Any - they will come out and look to take pies’ heads off at the first bounce. Seriously, make them fearful of their own lives. Zorko should remove from the torsos the heads of Maynard Cox and then move to favourite sons Daicii, Pendlebury , Elliot , moore

 

absolutely murder them

Yeah, it sucks, but don’t give me umpiring. There were a handful of blatant Collingwood frees that weren’t paid late (the Moore high and the HTB on Idun were horrendous misses).

If GWS got shafted it was by having to have a 6 day break into this game. There’s no need to ensure the top side gets 8 days into the GF. 7 is enough. But the drop from 7 to 6 is more severe and GWS shouldn’t have had to deal with that.

But in the end, Collingwood have been the best side for the majority of the year, so it’s no real surprise or shame that they’re in the GF.

I don’t understand why the club president can’t say “Nup, we’re not having that, we’ll sue you”

 

it’s like us having to to go kardinia year after year after year

Did the AFL change the rules during the week???

High tackles, Throws, Trips all OK

This would have been the Memo from (Gill) AFL to the umpires, "If Collingwood are losing pay everything, if Collingwood are in the lead pay nothing"

Played out perfectly didn't it?

Think again.... they may make it IF the umps don't kill them in the process but they have a woeful record at the G

Yeah, but they hardly play at the G.  Should have really beat us here home and away and beat us convincingly in a final last year.

I think that poor record counts for diddly squat.  They are playing so much better footy than Collingwood.

Bloke!

I remember the 2021 lead in, seeing all the amazing artwork for the Dees and feeling left out and a bit sad , living as I do up in the northern rivers. But this week, thank Christ I am not in Collingbourne. Intolerable.

I would kill to be there right now. Or anywhere else.

Yep walked out of the lounge with 5 seconds to go so I didn't have to see or hear the reaction. 

Ok over to you Brisbane.

The dog sat down on the bed and accidentally pressed the remote with his hefty bottom with 5 seconds left in the game. He is a therapy dog I tell you.

I just feel sorry for all the Demonlanders tonight the last few weeks have been hard and last week was devastating. We needed a lift and a Giants win would have been it. Instead we've been handed more crud sandwiches to chow down.

At least we got to see Jesse Hogan kick a massive goal under pressure and play a great game on the big stage. Like a proud ex-step father

The disappointing 2023 season just got that little bit more disappointing.

I can think of another word than disappointing, especially if Carlton wins tomorrow.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
