Mistake by the TAB.

How you could have Melbourne favourites after last week debacle is amazing.

I know WC have more injuries than us, but you can't possibly think we're a chance of winning - based on form.

    I thought we had more injuries at Melbourne. Unusual, they have more premiership players taking the field... :lol:

    I would have thought under normal circumstances, West Coast would be starting slight favourites. We were pathetic and got beaten by a very good side last week, but our form in the preceding weeks was good enough surely to be competitive against the 2nd worst side in the comp who are playing interstate

    But surely West Coast are well aware, its not in their best interests to win this one.

    Easy money to be made in my opinion

    Why 100% :unsure:

    The best thing that could happen for football would be an Eagles win.

    It wouldn't hurt us as well.

    It's a sad that even if we win on our merits there will be a perception around that WC have tanked and not put in their best side.

    Since it makes no difference to us at this stage I hope we thrash them and put the heat right on them, probably very, very wishful thinking <_<

    I think the best we can do is go out there and play a decent brand of football that hopefully gives the players some confidence. The worst thing would be if we didn't really show anything against a tanking opponent.

    Right Bub!

    I've been saying elswhere on this forum that this is the game we should lose!

    Then, we can become a football club again an drive all our efforts to win.

    Have we ever had a season without beating a Victorian side? We MUST beat Richmond, especially if it costs them finals

    Only if you include 1919, where we registered 0 wins for the year.

    Why on earth would we be trying to lose this week?

    Let's say West coast lose both their last two games by 100 points - 150 to 50. That would be enough to bring their percentage down to 65.0%.

    If our two remaining games averaged at 75-all draws, our percentage would climb to 65.4%

    That is roughly what it would take.

    If West Coast is even remotely competitive (by which I still mean 10 goal losses!) in either remaining game, we won't pass them on percentage.

    Meanwhile, we would need to win today, win another game, and take it to the wire in a third in order to hold up our part of the bargain.

    Fear not. We have the electric spoon (Watts) within our grasp. (Unless we win all three, that would really root us.)

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
