Top of the head Sunday morning rant.

Would not mind if Freo won it.

I'd also cop GWS. Love Tobes and Jesse.

Pies and Blues always repugnant.

Port are undeserving as is their coach.

Brisbane would be almost acceptable.

Had a gutful of the Cats and they're probably not good enough.

Dogs are a chance but not sure they can maintain this form which needs a 2016 repeat.

 

Nope can’t stand them and three first round picks this years they’ll get more talent into an already talented side.

    Shout out to GWS for saving their inaccuracy for this week as opposed to last week.

    Accuracy and efficiency is GWS’s one wood. If they don’t have that then they’re not much of a team.

    Port, Brisbane, Freo and Bulldogs have the form going into finals. And Port remain fragile and their form can disappear very quickly. I can't see genuine finals aspirants among any of the others striving to finish in the top 8. 

    I continue to believe that Brisbane will not win a GF with Zorko in the team, and with Hipwood as a main forward target. Daniher is playing outstanding footy when he is away from goals, but if they expect him to be a main forward force, the finals will find him out.

    Looks like Freo v Bulldogs to me.

    Media say anything about him playing, without any punishment at all, for at the least, being out at 3.00 am at a nightclub last week, drinking and maybe doing more and ending up unresponsive, taken by ambulance to hospital?

    Can imagine the coverage if it was a lesser club. Absolute silence from a totally beholden media.

    If only there were still journalists employed that could ask why being unresponsive because of substance abuse is different from concussion protocols?

    It really is time for teams to get multiple alternate strips or away strips like soccer. Last night was a joke and now Giants and Hawks are hard to distinguish in the sun. 

    Seriously irritates me, I wonder why we have to wear an alternate jumper against Essendon and Carlton don’t against Collingwood.

    Observations 


    Giants kicking for goal  v Dees straight  v hawks inaccurate!!!  Daniels miss from 15 metres out in front   FFS

    Umps favouring hawks clearly.  Hawks have been holding the ball several times. No free kicks. FFS. 
     

    But Hawks do take on the game and run. Guess what? Open forward line. 1-1 contests.  #AreYouWatchingGoody.  It’s a simple game !!!!  Dees slow and wide. wtf. Then it’s a kick to a contest.  FFS.

    Yeah. I thought it was just me. If anyone had genuine problems, they would be [censored]. In the sun, the dark and light orange/yellow strips are difficult to tell especially from aerial shots.

    Hawks play two easy beats so that’s 14 wins for them

    Dambrisio. Chol. Amon. Frost. Meek. Impey. Ginnivan. All 7 having very good games.  All picked up with loose change draft picks.  Hawks kept first and second round picks then topped up with other club recruits for key roles.  Its a simple game footy.

    You would have to say on paper we have a better list than the Hawks, but their style of play and game plan is working far better than ours.

    It may be due to a lot of factors,  but it is certainly starting with the coaching.

    Thanks Kelly Underwood for that lovely description. 
    And good afternoon to all the  personal care workers and residents out there.

    Umpires are getting GWS back in the game here. They’ve forgotten the change in rule re. 50m. 
    Not surprised. They forgot most of the rules Friday night.

    Kelli Underwood and pointless score reviews is a bad combination.

    Vs Billing’s, macadam , schache, Hunter , Fullerton all staring & @ vfl level, not sure how they got this so wrong and can’t expect all to impact but barring Hunter who is struggling we have no gains

    If Freo and Lions win the top 5 on ladder will be interstate teams after this week. And if it stays like that, the AFL will be rapt to have only one MCG final in the first week. Hehe

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes 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.
