Another fantastic poddy, thanks guys!

Definitely. At the beginning of the year I rated Tom Sparrow a fair bit ahead of JJ, but after 4 games I now have JJ ahead ……… and that’s not to suggest that Sparrow has been poor.

In a few minutes, we will be the only undefeated team after the first four rounds………. and we are yet to get out of second gear! It’s a long season, but gee, we a are a class above right now!

Heartbroken for our girls! They gave their all, but they were simply outmuscled and outclassed by a bigger and stronger outfit. There’s nothing wrong with that, and they should be proud that they made it to the Grand Final. Somewhat selfishly, I’m disappointed, because I so much wanted our great Club to be proud holders of the current AFL and AFLW pennants.

Love it! Go Dees!

Brilliant work Andy, George & Bin. Loved the thoughtful and candid responses from Ooze!

We are a 10 goal better team on paper, and I expect something similar to play out on Adelaide Oval tonight.

6. Bannon 5. Colvin 4. Paxman 3. L.Pearce 2. Heath 1. Goldrick

Casey fell over the line in the end, but a pretty solid effort given that they were bereft of tall forwards.

Absolutely stoked. Loved the effort, loved the desire. Like many around here, I’ve been saying ever since our AFL win, that I wanted the ‘double’. We are now only one step away from really putting ourselves on the Aussie Rules map.

Loving how competitive we are, and our back half is trancing up well. Would love a bit more method in our forward line. Go Dees, bring it home!

I’m really nervous (more so than last night), but over the journey I reckon we’ve earned a Grand Final berth.

6. Oliver 5. Brayshaw 4. Langdon 3. Weid 2. Smith 1. Harmes Bowser very unlucky. Max and JJ also good.

I agree Sideshow, but I also think that our culture dictates that if Dogga REALLY wants to go at the end of the year, we will find a way to get a deal done. However, I think this is a most unlikely scenario.

Thanks @Webber. I greatly value your professional input, while sharing @binman frustration. I’m sure it’s our passion that gives rise to the frustration.

Best midfield in the competition vs one of the worst. Comfortable 5 or 6 goal win, and a ‘stress free’ evening I reckon.

I like it. No injuries and nobody is bashing the door down!

Maybe something to do with a light week on the track, after a tough road trip and only a 6 day break.

Yes. Port Melbourne.

The 'stars' (all varieties), are continuing to align for the Melbourne Football Club.

Becoming more professional with every episode. Keep up the great work guys.Thanks!

……… and regardless of his current form (which is of no concern to me whatsoever!), Max is the very best leader in the AFL by a country mile. He’s pacing himself beautifully, with Dogga at his side. There isn’t another team in the AFL who wouldn’t be envious of our ruck duo.

From 'stop-gap', to Premiership player, to star player in a few months. Unprecedented! Bloody Hell, he's still just a kid!

Pocket the 4 points, recover, and move on. That’s what the best teams do, and we are a very, very good team. ……… oh, and Dogga and Bowser were sensational. Imagine them in red and blue with 50+ games under their belt! Just wow!
