    Nick Daicos should be sent off for a concussion test everytime he drops his knees and gets tackled around the head

    It was a hard fought game, but I felt it went long.

    Well anyone who blames the AFL for our missed scoring opportunities is imbecilic. I cbf reading back through the thread so I’ll take your word for it that there are some people on here who are imbecilic.

    It was one of the best games of football in years.

    I for one am shocked that a contentious umpiring decision at the end of the game helped gift Collingwood a premiership.

    A few Lions players were below their best today.

    Even Zorko as much as you hate him, really disappointing.

    Add Hipwood, Cameron, Neale, Dunkley.

    Bet we all have someone at work we aren’t looking forward to seeing 😤

    Lions played slow boundary line football like we do.

    Collingwood probably should have won by around 20 but they didn't really take the game on either.

    Not sure I would call it a great game. Tentative close game more like it

    I know a lot of people are disappointed with our flag being won in Perth rather than on the MCG, but the way we won it is undeniably much more satisfying than what Collingwood dished up this September. Fair play to them though, best team in it all year and there is clearly method to how they win so many close ones. Flat that they won today but not as flat as Geelong winning one and life still went on. No Zorko medal is a bonus.

    I hope this result burns in our guts.

    We should have beaten the Pies in the first final. Not sure we would have beaten a spirited GWS but if we had our kicking boots on, maybe. And probably would have beaten a pretty effective but boring Lions outfit today. 

    The Pies are a good side obviously but I think we’re better, even without our forwards (as shown by some of our best missing terribly in that game). 

    Anyway, huge missed opportunity. Hope the boys know it and practice kicking over the summer, and maybe we pick up a new forward coach and think of some. We ideas to capitalise on the team.

    Would love to be there in 2024 to win it at the G.

    I just wanted to knock off Collingwood so then they would have had to go to Brisbane. Brisbane would have knocked them off at home. It's all what ifs and buts but Collingwood just believe and never give up

    Go and get Naughton its that blatantly obvious, this team needs some separation that Tmac and BBB gave us in 21.

    Friggen fix it while you have the draft capital.

    This club that won the flag 1 hour ago were on the ropes and hanging on for dear life against us.

    Kicked 0.2 in the last quarter of the QF because we had 1 tall playing his 1st year as a marking forward inside 50. 

    Get busy Dees do something constructive, don't just sit on your hands and this is the problem 12 months down the track.

    #FFS.

    I reckon the only part of this that is correct is that Collingwood should have won by more. 

    How you reached the rest of your conclusions is beyond me. It was fast, skillful, aggressive and exciting.

    Wow.. I think that's on you then.

    That was one of the best grand finals I've watched in years in terms of how incredibly close it was and the pressure from both teams.

    I wonder if Fagan will say anything to berry about that dumb 50. 

    But again they let there opposition kick the first 2 goals. Then let De Goey respond after daniher kicked that goal.

    Take a look at the third quarter

    Last quarter only marginally better

    (put the scores out of your mind as that was the thing that kept it interesting)

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
