Hipwood smashed and caught red hot but still plays for the free throwing his head around and rolling his eyes after at the ump as if he's unlucky.

Have to say i really dislike Brissy.

Zorko, Hipwood, Neale, Answerth, Wilmot bah

    If it's not going to be us then GWS all the way. You only have to look at the alternatives in Geelong, Sydney, Carlton, Collingwood.

    GWS would be far more tolerable as premiers. Then we should pick off some of their talented youngsters.

    How do we pick off their youngsters??? They’d stay for sure. So much talent.

    Makes the loss even more painful to bare. The only other team they have beaten is Norf. It’s not good company to keep for the time being.

    Hope that some combination of money, home factor, senior opportunities will shake someone loose. Most likely they'll wrap up their superstars but there is so much talent on that list playing in the ressies.

    The one rider I’ll put on Brisbane is that they have had a relatively brutal fixture. 

    GWS, Geelong, Carlton, Collingwood, us, Fremantle (away), North.

    Their next month is GC, Adel, Rich, Haw. If they can’t go 3-1 or 4-0, then I’ll be happy to say they’re done.

    If not us then giants best option to win flag. They have no supporters so won’t have to deal with any gloating 

    This is the reality. Same with the Suns. No one cares if they win a flag unless you're playing them in the GF

    How predictable the whole “how did we lose to [insert name of team who were just thumped]? They’re absolutely sch!tt and yet they beat us!” thing is. Extremely predictable and extremely tiresome.

    What a redundant comment to make in general, but especially when it was the Giants and not North Melbourne or WCE who belted the Lions.

    I hate it almost as much as I hate this old chestnut (to be said in your sternest voice while wagging your finger): “I hope you’re watching this, Goodwin. You could learn a thing or two.”

    Mods, we really need an eye roll reaction.

    We got owned by Brisvegas for 4 Quarters, but you call it an overreaction. 
    Did you actually watch tonight’s game?

    I never called it an overreaction. I’m calling it a useless reaction.

    Yes I did watch tonight’s game. Not sure what difference that makes but then I’m not the one posing the useless questions.

    It’s called attitude. I don’t consider it a useless reaction

    One of the beauties of AFL is how much form can fluctuate dramatically from week to week. I suspect it is the physical nature of the game but that probably doesn't explain everything. Brisbane thrashed us for three quarters last week... at the MCG. GWS, who look to be the most talented side in the comp, thrashed the Lions. Teams will lose games they are expected to win and win games they are expected to lose.

    It all sorts itself out in the last week of September.

    Everything they tried against us worked. Even the ball ran for them. Average players played the game of their careers. Even Hipwood impressed (briefly) before fading back into irrelevance in the second half.

    Even without considering our lead-in work load, it was just one of those games. 
     

    Let it go.

    Goodwin is not fond of watching when our team gets belted. Remember how he didn't review the 2018 PF against West Coast.

    Yeah but they have to live in western Sydney!

    Give them a bell in early January when that big compressed heatsink of roads, industrial estates and black rooves turns it into a 50c oven

    Thanks all for your comments/concerns (?).

    My name is actually St John (pronounced Sin-gen) Lascelles Mustafa Nguyen-Smith III. If I was playing AFL, I'm not sure that the commentators would call me by my full name.

    Interestingly, I recall Neal-Bullen being called Bullen. It's the opposite of the abhorent behaviour which I have been calling out.  

    PS. Don't think this is over !!!

    It's a long season "SWYL'...don't get too hung up on one game.

    Agree with this if we can't be there on GF day.

    The thought of GWS beating Carlton or Collingwood by 1 point on GF day is a bit good.

    The city will be a ghost town as it was after the 2018 GF.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
