Not surprised at all. Didn't see any of but if the club doesn't care about the result why should the players or fans

Another 30 seconds and your lads could have won... they were pushing hard at the end.

Perhaps but when you pull 4 guys out only hours before the game to rest them just in case they are needed I think it shows how the club treats it

Still, could be worse, at least you coach hung around until the end of the game :D

North Ballarat have had their license revoked and won't be in the VFL for 2018. In a twist though Frankston have been re-admitted to the comp and the league will become a 15 team comp with Werribee going alone and North Melbourne entering a side

Port Melbourne with a handy lead over Williamstown early in the 3rd quarter of the second preliminary final. Good standard of play.

1/4 time VFL Grand Final Richmond (in the away strip) lead Port Melbourne by 7 pts. Good contest so far.

Listening to this one on ABC Grandstand, anyone's game. Sounds like a beauty. Richmond by 2 pts at 3/4 time.

Unbelievable last 5 minutes. Port kicked 2 goals to go to a 5 point lead. Richmond had a kick after the siren from just outside 50 for the win. Fades across the face of goal. Behind. Port Melbourne Premiers!

Integrity wins the day, unlike the SANFL counterpart.
