COLLINGWOOD: 4.5 ~ 8.7 ~ 10.9 ~ 12.13 (85)
WEST COAST: 5.5 ~ 7.8 ~ 12.14 ~ 15.19 (109)


"It was a tough trip over there, and welcoming back guys who haven't played for a few weeks was always going to be a tough initiation. Scott Lucas and Scott Pendlebury stood out again, and prove why they are champions. John McCarthy and Dale Thomas had flashes of brilliance as well, they were just too good for us today"

RICHMOND: 6.3 ~ 11.5 ~ 16.10 ~ 18.16 (124)


"We have had many criticisms over dropping Rocca, especially considering Hinkley didn't have a stunning game, but last week he was equally as unimpressive so we thought he needed a week in the reserves to get some form back. Presti had a bad game today, after such a good season, Richo killed him with seven goals. But on the up, Omar Berg showed he belonged in the side with three hard working goals. Scotty Pendlebury and Shane O'Bree worked tirelessly once again."

HAWTHORN: 1.6 ~ 3.8 ~ 12.10 ~ 18.13 (121)


"To put it simply, we played one good half of footy. 15 goals conceed in one half is terrible in any man's language, but after only conceeding three in the first half, it is shocking. This has been a tough year, with a range of experience everywhere. We will keep at it, and hopefully will improve with experience."

"Well it looks like we've invented a new way to lose... 41 points up at quarter time, even with their inaccuracy giving us constant chances, we couldn't win, that was the worst loss of the season by far..."

COLLINGWOOD: 3.0 ~ 6.5 ~ 7.7 ~ 10.9 (69)
SYDNEY: 5.1 ~ 9.2 ~ 11.3 ~ 13.5 (83)


"It was an ugly game, and we lost to them due to our inexperience at the tight contests. Things are looking pretty bad right now, but we had a feeling this would be the case, with many people being tried around in places. Our backline is really struggling while our forward line is struggling to make use of it's oppotunities. I might have a word to Jeff Giechshen tomorrow too (free kick count was 17-6 in Sydney's favour).

MELBOURNE: 3.0 ~ 5.1 ~ 11.2 ~ 17.4 (106)


"How to summarise in words how I feel now... well our season is on the rocks, and has been for a long time... no matter how much we look like we're about to win, we seem to lose, every single week we find a way to lose. If we could just string a couple of wins together, even the next three, and then we at least look competitive. Right now we look tired and weak."

"We had an absmyl first half, so at least we picked up in the second half. The only upside of these losses are that they are close, and that we recognise we are only a couple of key players in different places, away from winning these close ones.

"Well like I said to the guys at three quarter time.. whatever you're doing... keep doing it. Fremantle are the top side, having an 8-1 win-loss ratio before this match, we knew how big it was to us... and they came out and belted them by 50 points. I'm amazed... simply stunned and confused as to why they couldn't do this over the past two months."

"Well in this game I was glad we won, but we were playing the team below us on the bottom, and considering we had a terrible last quarter, we were lucky. Davis will miss next week after corking his thigh, while Trav needs to work on his accuracy, other than that, we will hopefully go for three in a row next week."

"This was the test of our season in the sense that, a win here would unlock finals, while a loss would put us back to fighting for a spot. So we are very happy with the result. I can't believe we need to win the remaining two and we could gain the double chance. But Scott Lucas will miss the next month with a broken hand which is a bit of a bummer"

"Geez I was nervous about this one going into the final term, and even though the last quarter was a shootout, we got across the line which was the main thing. Medhurst proved a timely inclusion with three goals, while Rhys Palmer was back to his best. Shame about Goldy going down and out for the rest of the finals series."

"I am impressed more and more by what this young team does, they certainly lift to the occasion on the big stage. Against all odds, we have made the Grand Final. How many teams have been 1-8 and made the Grand Final? It is a fantastic achievement. But don't get me wrong, we aren't going out there to come second. We are there to win. Now we get serious. But to lose John McCarthy with a small injury right before the Grand Final... let me tell you... he is totally shattered."
