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.

haven’t been able to bring myself to switch the game on. 

not sure i will

the cheering of Maynard will make me want to murder someone 

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.

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 HEAT IS ON by Meggs

    FNQ will be hot and sultry this Thursday night when the mighty Demons take on the highflying Hawks at up there Cazalys Stadium in Cairns.   The Demons once again rebrand for Indigenous Round as ‘Narrm’, the Woi Wurrung name for Melbourne in the language of the traditional owners.   Narrm has surged back up the ladder and sits just outside the eight on percentage with 5 wins. Our opponents Hawthorn sit second with 8 wins and have been become really offensive.

    The key defender has the height and has showed out from time to time with his pace in defence but has progressed slowly in his two seasons at the club. Will need to improve in 2025. Date of Birth: 14 May 2004 Height: 196cm Games CDFC 2024: 17 Goals CDFC 2024:  0

    Like most big men, Verrall is taking time to develop as a ruckman but has shown some encouraging signs. Finished ninth in the Casey Demons best & fairest this year. Date of Birth: 11 March 2004 Height: 199cm Games CDFC 2024: 17 Goals CDFC 2024: 6

    2024 Player Reviews: #50 Ben Brown

    Coming to Melbourne after seven years as a leading goal kicker at North Melbourne, Brown was well known for his unique, extremely long run up on set shots for goal. After some early setbacks injury wise settled into the full forward position in time to play a big role in the 2021 premiership win with three goals. Unfortunately, the remainder of his time at the club was hampered by injury including the need to undergo knee surgery. He retired from playing football at the end of the season after 4

    2024 Player Reviews: #41 Kynan Brown

    Brown, the son of former Demon hard nut Nathan Brown, made a couple of cameo appearances as a substitute which included a brilliant run down tackle which may have saved the game against the Kangaroos. Had some outstanding games at VFL level and finished equal sixth in the best & fairest at Casey.

    AWESOME FOURSOME by Meggs

    The rejuvenated Demons out tussled the Tigers by 13 points to make it four wins on the trot on Saturday which means that the slight possibility of a finals appearance remains alive in 2024. This is despite the AFLW handicapping the Demons against their peers yet again (more later). Lots to celebrate as it was Kids Day at Casey Fields and both teams ran onto the ground modelling their Pride jumpers.   Kate Hore won the toss and kicked to the Clyde end. Thankfully, the notorious Casey

    MORE FIERCE by Meggs

    We’re back!  Winning the last three matches has recaptured our Demon spirit and, with superstar players returning from rehab, our Season 2024 dreams are not over yet.   So come along 5.05 pm Saturday afternoon to watch this Round 9 ladder-defining match at the Field of Dreams. Expect the Tigers to be fierce, but surely the Demons will be more fierce. Playing conditions are expected to be a dry 15 degrees with a typically gusty Cranbourne wind.

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 03

    Part 3: Happier Days by Whispering Jack It would be fair to say that when the Melbourne Football Club entered the free agency and trade period earlier this month, its reputation was flagging, if not in tatters. The club was taking a battering in the media and social media over a number of issues, some real and others imaginary and even fabricated, relating to the running of the club, team performance and its culture, a build up that’s been taking place for more than twelve months.
