Looking like Ashcroft, Neale or Zorko for the Norm Smith. Hard to separate them actually. Ashcroft or Zorko for mine.

    Yes and no. He was brought in to give them the difference in games like this. It's not happening and he's not performaning at the level you would pay a million bucks for on the big stage.

    I've never seen Grundy as a great player.

    He's a good ruckman with usually good tap work.

    His skills at ground level are above average.

    But as an intercept mark....terrible.

    A forward.....well...

    A defender, nothing outstanding.

    Swans have been grossly, woefully uncompetitive in 2 grand finals in 3 years. Whatever they’re doing in the lead-in week is just plainly the wrong thing. Otherwise, not sure how I’d feel if I was a Swans supporter.

    I reckon the Lions have had training sessions that were harder than this quarter.

    It's not about the I50s today, it's the quality of the I50s. 

    10 goals from turnover

    Yeah, no really obvious Norm Smith yet, Lohmann mattered early with his 3 goals, but nothing since so far.  Hate too ay it Neale has been super clean, maybe Ashcroft. 

    Maybe AhChee?

    But everyone would tell you that Longmire is 10 times the coach Goodwin is 🙄

    This is the first time according to ABC radio.

    Brisbane are really going to enjoy this final quarter 

    Don't forget Brisbane came 5th. They've done this outside the top 4

    On the post mortem, it's going to be hard to pinpoint what the heck happened.

    Swans were fine for the first but just didn't front up in the second.

    It's not like they were flat from the get go.

    Where did it all fall apart?

    Dennis Pagan I’m guessing, as BT just said will Dennis Pagan be the second coach to win a GF without playing a game of AFL whilst the cameras were on Chris Fagan. 

    only thing is Pagan played for North. Another BT pearler 🤪

    The question is: are Sydney a good team having a shocker in a granny AGAIN, with Horse being not much of a coach, or are they an average team who overperformed and are now getting found out? In the latter case, Horse is a very good coach.

    Something just so off kilter.

    As mentioned prior, I could understand if the lions had the jump from the get go.

    So is it over training in the previous few days?

    I thought the lions would be flat.

    But I was so wrong.

    He is like the weather reporters who say the wrong thing but still has a job. Unbelievable.

    Denis Pagan played for North Melbourne when it was the VFL. Edit - ooops, missed the tongue in cheek tone.

    No, pagan played 143 games for North and South Melbourne. That was a brain fade by BT referring to Fagan as Pagan…

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
