We should have both if not for the AFL.

 

GC would be fancying their chances against a wounded Brisbane next week...

 

Are all the GC supporters the same WC ones that barracked for us in the 2021 GF?

Don't knock our "19th man" 🤣

FFS.. needed Fremantle to win as I believe they are the most capable to beat the scum at the G come Prelim time.

Don’t think the wounded Brisbane can do the job as we saw what inexperience did to GWS in 2017 when they met Richmond with 98% of the crowd going for the home team- they crumbled.

Suck that up Freo.

Hey Essendon, the last time you won a final the Gold Coast Suns didn't exist.

Gold Coast used them for a great confidence building warm-up against a VFL side last week too.

Fair play to GC. It only took 350 1st round draft picks.

Dammit.
I can't stand Hardwick.

Rough free kick.

Yes what is the rule? The Suns guy took possession then gets tackled and the ball jars free but the tackler takes him away from the ball. It’s not holding the ball as he had no prior and not incorrect disposal but why is it holding the man when he had the ball?

I think it's the continuation of the tackle. As soon as the ball is free the defender must release the man. Not easy to call but I think the holding was there.

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.

I don’t disagree their home ground/training base has received 140mill very political yet they wouldn’t find space for our home base in the Olympic park district, 3rd party deals who knows & if true they should be stripped of their flags!

Bottom line we can’t deny our club stability has been poor!

He hung on too long (just)

The AFL are having a wet dream with an all Queensland final at the Gabba next week.

It's good for the afl in Brisbane & on the Gold Coast because the Gold coast titans aren't playing finals, the cowboys aren't & the dolphins aren't. Only the broncos. After tonight's win they should get the coverage

The Q Clash next week is going to be massive.

I'll second that


Freo a chance to sack JL?

Absolutely. That was a massive chance blown. Home final, huge 19th man advantage and still managed to fluff it

Time to turn off now before First Cråp with Larry, Mo and Curly comes on.

Probably not, but seriously, what a disappointment they are.

With a list that stacked they should be in prelims, not struggling to make finals and then eliminated first week.

Tbh they were lucky to be a chance in the last quarter. GC outworked them all around the ground for 3 quarters.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
