    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.

    OK so sydney play Collingwood at home next week.

    Get your mojo back, beat the filth & knock there final chances out of the park.

    That's all you need to do

    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)

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
