As devastating as it was to lose finals in the last two years coming in as top four, at least we put up a fight. This is just deplorable from Port Adelaide.

    I know Geelong and Chris Scott are equally disliked on Demonland but their ability to challenge more often than not is amazing.

    Does Ken even last to the Semi's, this is an epic fail. I am truly staggered at how one sided just tuning in now.

    How do you rate Petracca’s skills just out of curiosity?

    Not sure how Trac came into this conversation….

    Geelong have only been out of the top eight, 5 times, since 2004

    Their midfield is so average. The only stars they have are JC, Stewart and an aging Danger. Their role players are still high quality but Scott is the master strategist.

    It’s a very good effort and also sickening.

    Their role players have a lot of skill, the ball control tonight has been top shelf

    It’s what we’ll run and coached sides do. I’m a bit shirty tonight watching Port, who finished second get smashed while our club is out of the finals and is in the news for all the wrong reasons.

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

    Fair dinkum, this is the best example of tall poppy syndrome. I don't care how much of a campaigner Danger is, he's an outstanding footballer, like having a go at the All Blacks, you can hate em, but respect for what he's done over the journey. At 34 and a 1/2, he's still above his average for disposals and had an impact on metres gained.

    Scott is a great coach, but he also has two completely unique star players like:

    Blicsavs. He is a freak. Plays any position and on any size player. Small or large. More times than not, he gets the job done. 
     

    Gryan Miers also broke the all time record for goal assists last year. People love to hate him, but he is a master of inside 50 kicks.

    I would kill to have Miers in our team.

    I don’t and can’t respect Danger. I stand by my point. 
     

    Ask Danger how tall he is and divide it by a good margin.

    Apparently ginnivan is at the London tavern watching the game. Sam Mitchell is aware.

    After going to the races gf eve last year & winning I guess he's sticking with tradition

    The ultimate chokers the Powa, all style, no substance.

    We need to find a Tall Forward with presents.

    Look at the tall fella who has come on this year in forward line, Neale can take a mark and is agile.

    That's all we need, both years in our straight sets exits our Forward structure has been appalling.

    This is the most enjoyable Geelong Cats win since 2011. Hate the [censored] with a passion but them absolutely nailing Port is glorious. Haha so funny .

    Watching a Qualifying final just blows my mind that we had 4 chances to make a prelim and blew every one of them in ‘22 and ‘23. Statistical chances of that happening would be awfully low.

    It’s almost like Port must have a virus running through the team.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
