Umpires were genuinely atrocious today. That advantage call late in the 4th was a defining moment. I’d be punching walls if I was a Brisbane supporter.

    Lions only themselves to blame. That 50 to Sidebottom turned the game, but they just looked sluggish when they should have dominated around stoppages.

    Hate to say it but the pies were the best team today and best team this year. They neatly kicked it away too.

    The umpires were woeful from the first bounce that went out of the centre circle. 
    Brisbane should’ve had a lot more opportunities (or Collingwood less) which could’ve been the difference.

    That absolutely no advantage / advantage pies call decided the game perhaps.

    Fitting end to the season.

    Well stolen filth.

    This. He wanted a good feel story to end his endless reign of terror. Don’t forget pick 3 to Norf for McKay on your way out you piece of dog****.

    They say stuff like the ‘four best’ but they are the same muppets from every week when mistakes and inconsistency are ever present. 
    Just hope they don’t start umpiring the girls

    Gotta change the advantage rule. If no advantage accrues bring it back for the free kick 

    I think if that next player chooses to take the next kick advantage is paid. He should have stopped.

    Can you believe Frampton is now a premiership player? The bloke did nothing.

    Hipwood failed to fire and whoever was on hill hope that lives with you over the pre season. 

    I was secretly hoping they'd snag another one & Brisbane win by 2 points. 

    So frustrating. Pies kick badly but win a premiership, we kick badly & lose 2 finals

    [censored] ADVANTAGE!!

    A player with two blokes on him. PUT YOUR [censored] WHISTLE AWSAY YIU DUMB [censored]

    YOU JUST LOST YHE LIONS A FLAG

    No matter how far it had gone, they just needed to call it back. Keep blowing the whistle. But nah, it's the pies and it's the show case of our game supposedly.

    What a wonderful summation of where our beautiful game has gone.

    Gil your are the murderer.

    God, I don't know what I'd do if I was a lions supporter at the ground. I'd want to torch the joint.

    Maybe just maybe Collingwood’s game style does hold up in finals. 
     

    This finals series really did just suck.

    I posted at halftime that the game would likely be decided by umpiring. And so it came to pass. The state of AFL umpiring is killing the game. For all the brilliant play, and players, all the work, dedication and teamwork, umpiring is simply making the game unwatchable. Congrats to Collingwood, but we’ll forever know there’s a huge, ugly umpiring asterisk hanging over this flag.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
