I'm on the Dockers here
But I love Caleb Daniel. Midget. Wears headgear. Least AFL player ever. But gets heaps of it and is clean as a whistle.
He uses the ball so well and for a guy his size that works across half-back, he is very effective.
Good win by the Dockers. Being down 41 points and then winning by 2 goals. Now they travel to Melbourne to face the Pies at the G. If they can get their running game going they could challenge the Pies.
-
great weekend of games. All tight, all different, all in front of big loud crowds
Now to the 2nd round
Melbourne hosting Brisbane at the 'G where they will be huge favourites.
Collingwood hosting the Dockers where you imagine there will be fuck all in it.Then the big question, does the pre-finals bye hamper the major semi winners, as they only play once in a month?
We all said how open the finals were, and it's very much looking that way at the moment.

Cheer cheer the red and the white!!!
The play in the final 10 where the demons took an inside 50….and then played on, ran them down and then Like three smoothers in a row before clearing! That defensive pressure!
this play, an inside 50 and the pure hustle to get back and smother it!
-
What a game. Brissy playing out of their skins.
Centre clearance game is going well. A crucial goal on the siren to level scores.
Dare to believe @mariner4life
-
The crumbing by the Lions is far superior. Harder at the ball on the ground.
-
Unbelievable. Lions doing what the Dees were so good at. The ground ball stuff.
-
Dees looked dead and buried down by 20. Now they’ve kicked 2 quick ones and only down by 7 with just under 2 minutes.
-
Cop that Dees.
-
Lions tuning into a fourth quarter dominant team?
-
You. Fucking. Beauty.
-
What a way to break an 8 year hoodoo at the MCG.
Neale once again led the clearances and tackles for Brissy.
Hipwood, Cameron and Bailey excellent up forward.
Now if Freo tonight….
-
Not sure where to register my disgust at this, so this thread will do.
AFLW cancels plan for minutes silences for QEII, the Monarch who oversaw the devolution of the old Empire and empowerment of the former colonies, and one if the greatest women in history, before their games because of the bitterness of some privileged racists.
Find it horrible and disrespectful.

that is mad for a team that has been a top 8 team for the last couple of seasons at least and how many games are played at the MCG

Brisbane don't get many. And then throw in the fact that we have been a top 8 team through COVID where finals were at the 'gabba and Perth (and our pretty ordinary finals return)
A lot of the MCG tenants take our game away (Hawthorn to tassie).
But it has been an issue.
-
@mariner4life yeah, i assuemd there were reasons, just when all you think about is 6 of the 18 teams call the MCG home and some have been rubbish over at least the last few years...so you would have thought they would have snuck a win...but as you say a lot of games were moved out over melbourne over the last couple of years
-

-
