    Feel it’ll be the Lions day. Daniher is the key, if he can mark and dominate and kick straight he’s unstoppable 

    Pies have choked in GFs for decades 

    they are 3 wins from their last 16. 

    relax everyone. Maybe Bucks can give the pre match speech on how to choke

    Cameron doesn't mind the dry conditions too. Loves playing the filth as well.

    Did I just hear that [censored] Hamish McLachlan say about KISS  "world class act for the world's biggest sport?"  Pffffff. What planet is he on?  Soccer, basketball, tennis and cricket say hi.

    Might not be the biggest but it's the best

    Makes me sick to think of the monumental waste of money the AFL has paid to get KISS today when, for example, our AFLW players, if out injured or rehabbing etc. but wanting to go interstate to support their teammates, have to pay their own way there. That’s just one example. FFS, get a young Aussie band to perform next time.

    I am turning off as soon as it looks like Collingwood has it won. I hope that never happens. I worry the umps will keep it close if the Lions are going well but let the Pies kick away if they can.

    Fair to say it applies to all of us today. It's up to the lions to stop us getting too hammered.

    Collingwood do often win by small margins, so often one might say it's a strength. 

    They certainly dont throw away games and have supporters trying to turn that into how unlucky they were.

    On top of that ,thuggery and all,they play like they are enjoying it.

    Maybe Goodwins boys could take a leaf out that book and see if it helps their big game lack of composure.

    Fmd! 

    MFC arnt in the G/F because of  a dysfunctional forward line ,injuries  and lack of poise when the pressure is on.

    They certainly try hard though

    McRae leans into the 19th man. They are doing this "for the fans".

    We won a flag in Perth while we were all at home in our underwear. 

    In 2022 our own players were criticising us for not turning up. Then we choke in 4 finals in a row at the MCG.

    McRae is a superb coach and their fans are fully bought in. They take them for the ride. I don't feel like I'm on the "journey" that Goodwin talks about. I feel like just an observer. That's the difference between clubs like Melbourne and Collingwood and it's why they've played in like 35% of all Grand Finals.

    They’ve played in 20 of the last 80 grand finals but only won three of them. I think I’ll stick with Melbourne.

    Brisbane please do us all a favour and beat this mob. I cannot handle living in Melbourne for the next week or year if the filth win.

    We want misery on these players and fans.

    Kiss are appalling 

    Just embarrassing…

    Live lead vocals, the rest is backing tracks. Gene Simmons isn't even playing the bass in rhythm to the music.

    Mike Brady is always great. Nice nod to RDB.

    Gimme the all Australian 2021 pre match anytime.

    Probable biased.

    But Kiss is so Gill and AFL bombastic BS

    I'm loving watching our girls play instead of this hyped up garbage

    I can report the beach down on the Mornington Peninsula is superb. It’s pretty crowded so obviously there are a lot of people like myself who don’t give a rats about todays GF.

    The Pies will come out of the blocks if Lions can stay with them in the 1st quarter they’ll win comfortably. 
     

    If the Lions can’t match the intensity then it’ll be over by halftime.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • 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.
