    Pendlebury has been a great player. 400 games is an amazing achievement.

    And he played well tonight. i reckon he'll go around again.

    Carlton & Collingwood both missing the 8 is the dream scenario. Step in the right direction tonight Landers. Let's get something out of this season!

    That sucks. I see Darcknee Moore managed to get a knee into a Carlton bloke’s ribs there in the last minutes. Can someone line him up in our last game please.

    Nah that honour I’m reserving to junior boxing champion Jake Melksham when he decides to call it a day.

    If only carlton could kick straight 

    Nah, bugger them.
    Hawks could kick them out of the 8 next week by beating them.

    Quite happy with that result. Blues now a game and a half out of the top four if Brisbane win tomorrow. Important since they have WC away and St.K to finish their season. If Hawthorn lose tomorrow but beat Carlton the following week they could both end up miss finals. Along with Essendon, Collingwood and of course rock bottom Richmond. How sweet.

    I cannot fathom what has happened to Sydney. 

    Come on carlton break the pies fans hearts

    Why? Carlscum are the most despicable team and it’d be good to see them fall out of the eight soon. Colonwood are finished for this year anyway.

    Wow. Horrible game but brilliant last quarter. Was pulling hard for Carlton, needed that to stay top 3 in tipping, I am now bundled out to 4th and the non prize money position.

    Ouch, ouch, ouch.

    Grundy has really struggled the last few weeks.  Interesting they brought Ladhams in.  He was hopeless too but might indicate the workload has got the better of Grundy.  He looks the bog average player he did with us last year.

    Although If the Pies win, it would be funny to see the Swans only two points inside the top 4. This season producing Maximum chaos.

    If you have Carlton, Hawthorn, Collingwood and Essendon all missing finals...you must have us making it. Can't work otherwise.

    FWIW Carlton's last two games should mean they can't miss, as that's enough to get them to 14 even if they lose to Hawthorn.

    Hawthorn have to beat at least one of GWS and Carlton and then they will get to 14 given they have the bottom 2 in their final fortnight.

    GWS remains at most risk of being the side Hawthorn passes. They can beat Hawthorn tomorrow and still miss as they close with Brisbane, Fremantle and the Dogs. No guarantee to win any of those, so even with a win tomorrow they'd stall at 13.

    If you are still playing at home, I think possibly our only realistic path to finals now is for us to take GWS' spot, which requires this:

    1. We win all three (obviously) (gets us to 13)
    2. Hawthorn loses to both GWS and Carlton and take a percentage beating, such that we finish the season above them on percentage at 13-10
    3. GWS loses its other three games (Brisbane, Fremantle, Dogs) and sheds enough percentage for us to pass them, also at 13-10
    4. Collingwood loses to at least one of Sydney and Brisbane (they'd cap out at 12)
    5. Essendon loses at least two of Sydney, Brisbane and Fremantle (they'd cap out at 12.5)

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
