    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: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
