    Carlton has a lot to play for. Eagles don’t. 

    They still couldn’t play any worse. 

    Never even had an attempted scoring shot all quarter.

    Don't know if anyone has raised this but the way the Blues are despatching WC they are putting finals out of reach for Collingwood.

    We would have to lose by something like 150 points for the filth to make up the percentage gap they now face...and that ain't happening.

    I think West Coast need to handball it more , particularly to players under more pressure. Regretting changing my tip just before the game.

    If I've read the ladder correctly, Fremantle make the eight if they beat Port next week and any of Carlton (v St Kilda), Hawthorn (v North) or Footscray (v GWS) lose.  They're in with a show but have to win to be any chance.

    This is very impressive by carlton. Basically a makeshift forward line & a captain who is making sure his team get over the line

    Freo finals chance… 30%

    Has it been said that West Coast were bookies favourites in this game?

    Would be ironic if Carlton miss the finals in the last round again, once is bad enough.

    I’m calling it: Collingwood have missed finals.

    If the Blues pile on some more goals in the last quarter, it will probably seal Collingwood's fate 😃

    Wow. I just checked some scores 

    Brisvegas and Jeeelong Choke

    So frustrating we couldn’t sneak into September 

    Nobody is a favorite this year…

    How Fagan continually puts up with that perenial big game choker in ERIC HIPWOOD Bafles me. Until they banish him and a few others who choke in big games, they will go nowhere

    Collingwood's fate is sealed already.   They're gorn, as their current premiership price of $501 would indicate.

    As disappointing as it is to see Carlton win they have at least made it virtually impossible for Collingwood to squeeze into a finals position now. Also, even a win against St.K next week is likely see the Blues travel to the Gabba for an elimination final.

    Ballarat and MARS stadium are getting a very important footy match next week with huge ramifications for many teams.

    And for the AFL they have hit the nail on the head in terms of suspense with a SUPER SUNDAY.

    •Dogs v Giants

    •Carl v StK

    •Frem v Port

    Cripps has been outstanding, but The Eagles have been embarrassingly bad. Their kicking efficiency is unbelievably poor.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
