Feels like other clubs are much better at identifying talented smalls (that impact games) than us.
 

We have Kosi, yes, but he cost us pick 12 and that’s about all we have (I’m not a huge Chandler fan).

    Elite ball use in finals goes a long way. No Farrell and Houston hurts, let’s see how good Port are.

    Danger is the most over hyped and over rated footballer in recent times. 

    I mean he’s probably 2-3 years passed his prime?

    The finals paradigm used to be ‘tough, contested footy’, which we aimed to master.

    This game is quick and the team executing well is on top.

    Our preferred style of footy out of date in the regular season and now out of date in the offseason.

    He missed the shot, but what a pass and lead and mark!

    Yeah? Nah. 
    Pressure still trumps everything.

    Ooooft, I dunno, in my mind prime danger was streaming out of the middle and hitting leading forwards on the chest. He is definitely a player I would say over the last ten years can win games off his efforts.

    But that’s just me

    Nah. 
    Different game. 
    Neither team cares much whether the opposition kicks 100pts - as long as they kick 101pts.

    My tip is Port. The game has to tighten up and i rank Port's defence over Cats.

    8 all australian selections is a fair effort

    • 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 The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
