    Do you seriously think Buckley would base such an important decision on the result of one game, or even two?

    And do you seriously think losing to Collingwood - or as you put it, playing like pusseys [sic] - means writing off 2026?

    Absolutely likely.

    No experienced coach worth his salt will want to coach a team that's completely bereft of spirit, will or desire to win a game of sport and showing dissinterest imv.

    Complete waste of time.

    A few first timers might as they'll be after the entry opportunity and the circus $$ that come with it a la MN.

    Also an experienced coach like Buckley would be basing his decision on a body of work throughout the year.

    We haven't exactly covered ourselves in glory in many matches. If he's teetering on the brink and witnesses two absolute howlers to end the season... yes, it might be the straw that decides things.

    Or Kozzy gets suspended to delay the start of his next season.

    Him missing the first 3 games of our season absolutely [censored] us this year.

    Hilarious how Collingwood and Maynard are getting their feelings hurt over harmless words, but happily applauded Maynard after deliberately knocking out and consequently retired a player. The amount of victim playing by them this week has been embarrassing.

    4 weeks for Rankine in theory is an absolute joke, but the likes of Cripps wins a Brownlow for concussing a player.

    knock out a player = ok with no suspension. Hurting feelings with words = multiple weeks suspension. 🤡

    After hearing Maynard talk yesterday, I really want to rub salt into the wound and beat them, while also knocking them out of the top 4 in the process.

    Sorry, but it needs to be said: the words that were allegedly used are not harmless.

    Do we go with Langdon on the chosen one again?

    This trick has been done, worked really well. But now they will be prepped and the umps will be pre warned to protect the chosen one. I am sure there will be more protection on him.

    The filth will be looking for a win to get top 4 and a healthy percentage boost to stay ahead of GC & Hawthorn.

    Even if we can't win, I hope we can at least deny them the %

    The AFL has prepared the umpires to ensure a lopsided free kicks tally. It’s inconceivable that they’d allow Collingwood not to be major players in the finals

    Last time we played these goons in the final round of the year was 2024. The Daicos boys had 80 disposals between them

    I'm tipping there were no useful learnings for the Demons brains trust.....

    A similar game style to the Hawks so expect the same

    The Pies had a cry to the AFL about the umpiring in their game versus Adelaide. So you just know they will get every soft free on Friday.

    Warning: do not enter a 2m radius surrounding N Daicos

    This game is stupid. Seriously can't wait for the season to be over.

    However I will be happy if we can at least run the Pies the way we did on King's Birthday. Turn it into a boghole for all I care, how's the weather looking for it?

    Buckley is so desperate to coach again he'd accept an offer from Fitzroy.

    I’m referring specifically to this comment of yours…

    “If they come out and play like pussys two weeks in a row and AGAIN against the Pies you can forget any resurrection in 2026 and i'd very much doubt we'd see Buckley coming anywhere near us.”

    … and its implications.

    Now you’re saying…

    “Also an experienced coach like Buckley would be basing his decision on a body of work throughout the year.”

    … which is what you should’ve (but didn’t) say in the first place.

    The Hawks have got their game in great shape and one of the best defensive sides at the minute. Collingwood are struggling going forward and their defence has tapered off. We'll be throwing the game away if we don't put some work into the Daicos boys as this one is very winnable. Both teams also coming off 6 day breaks.

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?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
