When does the Brownlow start?? Surely the Casey GF going til 4:45 doesn’t influence it

From Titus: I guess one thing Demons supporters can be proud of is their team not playing the second half in honour of the Queen.

Bizarre game. Blistering first Q. Then 11 behinds. in 2-3 years I reckon Zanker will dominate the comp. Love her aggression

Record at the G last year was 8-2 from a quick look

Happy for the discussion but the difference between Optus and the G is like two Max Gawns on either side. Negligible when we played well early in the year we won at the G. When we were poor we lost

Don’t buy into the theory. We started the year 6-0 at the G. Only two finalist in that group but still. our form was poor and we happened to be played at the G second half of the year

The good news is with all the loading we have done we will be in peak fitness by Christmas

We lost because it’s a game deep man

Simon, I reckon it would be handy to have a fwd or two actually stay forward. How many times did we get the ball on a turnover, the player looked up (Viney several times) with no one to kick to! Even a diagonal pass. Then we got caught holding the ball. Thought I was back to the Dean Bailey days

All we can do now is hope for. Lions v Swans GF even though the chance is so slim of the Cats losing

Buckley must be feeling real good right now. From second bottom to prelim with the same list

That Ginnivan kid is a great player. Has taken the playing for free out of his game mostly

Ditto. Their fans were inflammatory last night. Absolute [censored]. lions used to be a sorta second team but no more

Would certainly consider Henry and Acres. Acres has done well on the wing. We lack pace on the non-langers wing

I know. Bring in Joel Smith, bring in Dunstan! They’re great!

Honestly - thank [censored] we lost last night. We are not right this year. But the positive is I don’t have to see us lose to the Pies or even worse the Cats

Collingwoods last 13 scores - 1.12

Jonny Ralph said at half time 5 Freo players will request trades this summer. I’m almost certain he said that - anyone confirm? One was Liam Henry who isn’t getting a game and has enough talent for us to look into him as part of the trade. God knows we need some fwd creativity

But he does have eyes and knows Tomlinson isn’t a forwards [censored] like everyone else

Pies remind me if us in 2018. Young team with nothing to lose. Sure they’ll get smashed in the prelim but it’s fun to watch

The commentators are dead set cheering for the Pies! When Schlutz took that great diving mark it was - oh, I think he might have marked it - in a full tone.

100% the main positive is having all of our stars locked in on long contracts. we should be up to our necks in it for the next 5 years. Hopefully we can snag a flag or two

I don’t trust him blindly. When he underperforms I question him and when he succeeds I congratulate him. Seems fair imo

So finals 3 years out of 5 with 2 prelims and 1 flag is a failure after 12 years of zero finals and 57 years without a flag? I have deadset heard it all now You blame him for the failure but then the ultimate success you suggest he doesn’t deserve the credit? Those same coaches were all here this year no?

We also hold the record for the shortest drought since their last flag that'll do me
