Good win on the road for the Blues ... a very good win ... powerful 4th quarter. First time beating an Adelaide Club at Adelaide Oval actually.

    Not peaking yet. Still more injured players to come back.

    Nah, peaking now and you don't win flags in May as they always say.

    Also apart from Cerra, Cottrell and Martin they are close to full strength.

    Port are perennial pretenders though, we'll see...

    The original team has been on a training camp miles away and were on their way to the oppo home ground on GameDay. Their bus broke down and because their own town is at about the halfway mark between where they broke down and the oppo home ground but in the opposite direction, it was quicker to round up the misfits and take them to the game in the backup bus. 

    Did you write the script for the ad? 😄

    Agreed. But they are a tough opponent at home in Adelaide.

    I think they’re a team that had a patchy April and May but are now working into the season really nicely as evidenced by their last 2 games.

    I don’t want to play them in a final, if we’re good enough to make it.

    And it doesn’t help that their (Port’s) fans are so loud and there’s so many of them.

    Real talk: I can see them in the GF this year. The side is more balanced then ever and they aren't just scoring from stoppage now (apart from tonight). They've even found a use for Zac Willams now forward. It wasn't long ago when nothing seemed to work out for them, now it seems like its all falling their way. Very good side

    Sounded like almost equal numbers tonight. Hell of a lot of baggers there

    Carlton has a big following in both South Australia and Western Australia, so many club legends over the years hailed from these two states. The Blues will likely be aiming to draft the two Camporeale boys in the next draft (twin sons of Scott Camporeale who was in the 1995 Premiership team).

    Agree. They're quite far from peaking tbh, their last month has been up and down. Sydney are genuinely peaking and couldn't play any better - too early. 

    Blues were my flag tip before it all began and remain so - have all key items covered and their 2nd/3rd string layer are all contributing solidly and knowing their role. They've as a group also discovered the knack of winning - you can see it.

    They give me huge '21 Dees vibes and have done for about 18 months

    Carlton are a tough team to beat any given week, but still not sure on them defensively. Up to now they have conceded the 4th highest against. Wait and see if they fix that in the back half.

    What do you do next Sunday night??? Blues v Bombers...

    Yeah the balance of the list really reminds me of ours in 21, as well as the number of guys in career best form.

    unbelievable that they get a 10 day break after a game in adelaide whereas the peptides will be coming off a standard 7 day week after the humidity of playing gc17 up there

    they're trying to turn 'king's birthday eve' into a thing the way we and the tigs have turned 'anzac day eve' into a thing

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      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.
