You  know who I blame for this. The players from our team who couldn't kick straight to save themselves. 

It's easy for them. They can escape by going overseas next week. We can't.

Somebody please think of the DL’ers!!

    Ugh went into the Vic market this morning and a stall holder was playing the Collingwood theme song. Way to early for that.

    It's going to be a very very long week and a painful one

    The most infuriating thing about Collingwood making the Grand Final is that they’re not even that [censored] good.

    They (the filth) looked so gettable last night!

    They also interviewed that sex pest DeGoey, who for some reason decided to awkwardly hug her and invade her space. Others lose their jobs for similar behavior. Was bizarre and no one bats an eyelid because it’s Collingwood. I hate what this country is becoming.

    Yep, the idolization of sex offenders, thugs and cheats under the guise of being good blokes who can kick a footy is nauseating. 
     

    If you hate what this country (and world) is becoming,  spare a thought for us women.

    The last few weeks I’ve realised I like Aussie Rules the game, can’t stand the AFL as an industry, but love the Demons. The manufacturing of storyline’s and outcomes is so obvious.

    Watching the AFLW is a revelation. It feels fun and real.

    I was surprised Hogan kicked straight late.
    But he's been out of our system longer I s'pose.

    Nice of Channel 7 to yet again rub salt into our wounds by interviewing this [censored] low life animal after the game.

    Noticed he was in the thick of it again with his bumping and pushing.

    Hate to say it, but i don't think we beat either team last night (pies beat us already in a QF as we know). We don't have the corridor game to win it. Badly need some new thinking in this regard. any chance we could poach Leppitsch?

    Sorry @BDA  to disagree.  We could have beaten either team last night. I wouldn’t be afraid of playing either.  We have to ability to beat anyone and win it. Put us against anyone and we’re a big chance.  
     

    Just for the record.  Pies and Blues didn’t beat us.  Dees lost it. Both times. What hurts is we only have ourselves to blame in both games.  So so so so (etc ) chances to win both games.  (And ps. we were minus Gus,Petty,Melksham)

    I thought the Ch 7 commentary was deplorable.  I have accepted that BTs brain is always at another game but the others commentated not on what they saw but who they saw

    Daicos - what a champ; (had just slipped and fallen over)

    Sidebottom - ever reliable (coughed up 2 goals)

    I noticed that too. Went the hug and the kiss. Was real creepy and weird. Maybe a little history there, who knows. She looked uncomfortable

    we're good enough. Our game plan isn't. We play the same way again next year it'll be the same result.

    Good post.

    We simply couldn't win because of our fwd line being depleted. Also had Gus unfairly removed from the whole game.

    We bombed it against the pies without a strong Hogan type player who could make a contest. 

    If a tired gws side that had a six day break after three interstate games had another tall in their fwd line and not rely just on Hogan they would be in a Gf now.

    Pies are bog ordinary and  should be smashed by the lions if the Mcg hoodoo isn't a factor.

    Lions fwd line should overwhelm  the pies defenders .

    As for Carlton, we were another fwd down in a young Jvr suspended and blew a lot of chances in a very poorly umpired game with 50m penalties handed out like snickers bars and a lot of frees just simply not paid.

    We also made some poor selection choices with Laurie in the QF and not Grundy in the other. 

    A sad ending with injuries, the Maynard incident and some really poor skills saw us removed in straight sets in a series where a flag was very much there for the taking.

    Sheet kicking and stupidity lost us both games.

    I think his season has been slightly over hyped.

    12.17 for the season. If he did that at Melbourne he’d be lynched by all and sundry.

    Agree, people have been suckers for the highlight reel and quick to boot our list management.

    Like the rest of you I’ve woken to a lovely Melbourne Spring day, revoltingly ruined by the infiltration of Collingwood propaganda. Listening to 774 and Matt Preston is about to turn away 60% of his audience, by assuming we are all interested in listening to his nauseating sycophantic slobbering on about Collingwood. 
    Its just the arrogance that pizzes me off, this would happen with no other team, except perhaps Carlton 🤮🤮🤮

    If Collingwood were playing the Taliban in the Grand Final next week I would be wholeheartedly supporting the Taliban.

    If Carlton wins tonight it will be like choosing a favourite from Al Qaeda and Islamic State.

    When Hogan kicked that goal to get the Giants within 1 a Richmond friend asked how Melbourne must feel seeing that.

    If anyone should be feeling bad about Jesse playing this kind of footy it's Freo. They couldn't make it work in the perfect hometown environment and they are crying out for a forward as well right now.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
