The three teams I hoped would win have all been beaten and my preferred GF winner has been eliminated.

I don't care who wins tonight so there's that, I suppose.

Hoping for Gold Coast. (My last runner in the race)

    What a [censored] start to the weekend……..and it’s not even Friday. Now we just need the Cats to roll BrisVegas and Hawks to beat GWS and it quickly becomes a finals series of nightmares

    Ohh bravo, you had to bloody say it didn’t you. Schmuck.

    Seriously don’t care about the results today – except for Casey.

    Wanted cats and pies out. Hopefully both of them in a fortnight.

    Giants are 0-4 in their last 4 finals. At least it's not just us.

    They play Russian Roulette too much and rely on the 6 goal come back.

    Kingsley needs to make some major adjustments over summer as they strike me as a nice home and away team, but not much more.

    I’ve never been to Optus, so a local can tell me, but it always seems comparatively loud. Is it the acoustics in the stadium?

    14 prelims from last 19 seasons the Cats, hate it but respect it as their strategy has been solid, whilst they have a uniqueness as non Melb club they are consistent with stability & rare off field issues we can only dream off

    I don't respect them at all. They are gifted tax payer money simply for the privilege of being in a voting belt held by the dominating party of the last half century. On top of that, all of the shenanigans they pull to get players there. It's blatantly shady. Players suddenly walking into large multimillion dollar properties. Partners suddenly in high paying jobs in the region. Players consistently taking far, FAR below their market value to a degree only seen there. Even Collingwood has their contract challenges. Somehow Geelong manages to re-sign stars on minimum wage. Yeah right! They've been doing it since the 90s and imo it really kicked into gear during the Thompson years. [censored] them.

    poor first quarter so far

    It's Freo. Their gameplan is entirely "bring the opposition down to our level and then hope our mid-tier forwards snag a couple out of their [censored] to get us over the line". It pisses me off seeing Jackson and Bolton wasting their careers there. They are a [censored] club.

    I reckon their window is closing. Toby, Kelly, Hogan, Whitfield closing on retirement in the next 1-2 years I reckon.

    There defensive cover is shocking - hawks were like 80% scoring from i50 at one point.

    Wish there was a way we got him with XL and Langford.

    The standard of umpiring combined with the complete lack of consistency in the application of virtually any rules is one of the biggest issues in the game. At times it’s unwatchable.

    Optus is very loud. Much louder than the MCG easily. It’s a beautifully designed stadium. Not a bad seat to be had. I believe sound gets trapped under the roof and reverberates around the ground like a Mexican wave but I suspect the noise might also be amplified some how with the speaker system. During Bang, Bang, Bang in 2021 the noise was incredible.

    Suns look good but no chance at a flag. Have a lot of holes.

    Freo need a new coach, they have good players but an awful game plan.

    Humphries looks the goods on the big stage.

    You can see why we wanted to draft him.

    I've decided to support Gold Coast tonight after hearing the Freo fans booing even the most obvious free kicks against their team.

    Sorry Suns, you really don't deserve the Demonstone finals mozz.

    OK so far I owe the Suns an apology. I just thought they were making up numbers & freo would roll them. But they've been impressive, especially in that quarter

    Rowell, Anderson, Miller and Humphries a very handy group of players plus others to build around. They will be very hard to beat next year.

    If they lose tonight you'd expect some heat.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
