Got the Grand Final we wanted I reckon.

I reckon we wanted GWS there, instead of Brisbane. But best outcome given the circumstances.

    Well done Brisbane. That pre-season trip to Vegas was a masterstroke.

    Should quieten down the VicBias complaints for a bit. It's still there of course.

    Lions deserved the win

    Aside from a couple of obvious players, I quite like the Lions

    2 weeks off, they will win the flag

    I would give anything to have Chris Scott as Melbourne’s head coach next year.

    This mob was a 7-8 side at best at the start of the year.

    Absolutely gets the best out of his players at his disposal and clearly has a system that can stand up in September.

    Prepared to eat humble pie wit that post, but he’s still an elite coach.

    The Best neutral final I’ve attended (behind the 2012GF) as it didn’t involve Collingwood wining it.

    My hope is for a Brisbane premiership. They’ve been up for a while and deserve a flag more than the Swans.

    That and I can’t stand the arrogance of Swans supporters when their team is in a GF

    He's got 2 hours of make up removal in front of him. Surely the tears will help.

    Hey, the oracle that is @Demonland

    Has a team ever got to a GF after being 0-5?

    Man, just so envious watching the Lions that quarter. The way they ran through the corridor to attack while there was space up forward was just brave and fantastic.

    Our down the line method is slow, predictable and gives our forwards no space to lead by the time the ball plods down there.

    We have to find a way to get more speed, attack and dare into our game if we're going to ever be a top 4 side again.

    Pretty good game of footy. Whoever wins this is going to be gassed for the granny.

    Yep, we aren't in their league, obviously, with our terrible game plan, hopeless coach and dreadful culture. Not to mention appalling list management. Funny how  we got closer to them than Geelong did - and in Brisbane.....  5 points.....

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
