Now the Dockers have beaten Essendon, we HAVE to come 16th, which means we take Tommy even if we beat the out of form Saints next week!I guess we're playing for Trengove, now! Pick 1, 2 and 19 is far better than 1 and 19!!

Let's hope the Saints don 't rest their stars(despite the shorter break than us), and really go for it next week.

The trouble is, using that reliable tipping guide of recent results.....we killed Freo by 10 goals. Freo killed Essendon by 6 goals. Essendon beat St Kilda. We should beat the Saints by 16 goals!

What a strange season it is, I was thinking the same thing myself except for the part about Melbourne winning next week.

I think we snag Pick 18, hopefully Panos is still around then.

On further reflection, it's pick 17, isn't it? First pick of the second round.

The Saints will win next week. They must!

Imagine the atmosphere at the ground if we win-Everybody will be [censored] off!!

The Saints will win.....

Surely the saints have a wee bit more to play for?

Spots in the side? momentum? Form?

Funny ol' game footy

 

Its not over yet. Lets not be complacent. We could beat the Saints and Richmond could, umm I dont know, they could get docked premiership points for bringing the game into disrepute? :P

After we beat Port I thought it wasnt going to happen. But we did it. Somehow, we did it.

Hello Mr Scully. Let me show you to your locker.

Imagine the atmosphere at the ground if we win-Everybody will be [censored] off!!

there would be riots in the crowd at the end the melbourne cheer squad was sitting, Bailey would be sacked, effective immediantly and deported. The assistant coaches would be looking for a new job next season and the 22 players that took the field that day would have their contracts ripped up and they would never again represent the MFC :P


1,2,18,34,50.PSD#1. The Saints will win next week. Saints first game at the MCG this season next week! That and the fact the Saints have lost their past two games.......:unsure:

I still think we'll make the finals.

What a strange world we live in! Half my family barrack for the saints, next sunday will be wierd, i may need stimulants in order to cope!! :lol:

I agree, we will, 2012. :P

Well if you judge it by the conglomerate of players I sat amongst at the phone dome on Saturday we have no hope at all. Talk about a medical ward

Am I missing something here? Please tell me if I am. With St Kilda looking decidedly wobbly, the Dees showing that they can occasionally put it all together, and Richmond playing West Coast at Subiaco next week (they're only a tiny fraction ahead of us on percentage), isn't it possible that we might miss out on the spoon ?

What if we beat the Saints? Richmond will get flogged by West Coast and lose percentage, so we could easily end up 15th., meaning that:

1. we lose the PP &

2. Richmond claim Scully (a Tiger supporter).

As I said, am I missing something? For now I'm leaving the cork in my champagne.

i want jetta!!!!

i dont care where we take him and i dont care if he wants to go the weagles...he's so quick!!!!!!!!

Your not wrong Nuggett, he looks quicker than "Flash"!! Is he the Brother of our jetta?

nah, he's not...cousin...and nevilles mum reccomended that we take him last year and conolly now admits that we "stuffed up"...

i want multiple jettas and grimes' running around, and possibly mortons...

apparantly we are looking at getting another central australia bloke again this year which would be very exciting.

Nah, He made the right decision to play a year in the WAFL. But Geez he is worth looking at now.

Draft week is going to be HUGE!

Yeah, youre missing something. Richmond have 5 wins and a draw. We have 4 wins.

Doesnt matter what happens next week, we get the spoon.

If we win, we still get the spoon, but miss out on the PP.

We wont win.

As he is/was a Richmond supporter, I wonder what Tom Scully's opinion of Jordan McMahon is?

Had McMahon missed that kick after the siren, Scully would be all but on his way to Punt Road.

Strange days indeed. :D

But he Didn't Miss so young Tommy will be just down the road from the hapless Tigers!! I am sure Tom will be thankful of that in time.

Careers tend to go Belly up at Tigerland :lol:

Thanks, Einstein! I'm feeling very non-Einstein having missed that, but you've greatly relieved me (I'm following all this from Hong Kong atm) - if I could, I'd share the champagne with you - I'll drink to your health (and Tom Scully's) instead!

I think we snag Pick 18, hopefully Panos is still around then.

My thoughts exactly. Scully, Trengove and Panos would be the ideal top 3.

As for St Kilda next week, it's hard to say what will happen but I think we are in a good position. The loss against Essendon 2 weeks back was long overdue, there were a lot of close wins they were lucky to get this year and this is one where it went the other way. Losing to the Kangaroos this week is nothing short of embarassing, even Richmond has beaten North Melbourne. I think this will make them more hungry to avenge the loss and not go into the finals 3-in-a-row losers, I am expecting them to come at us very hard next week. Add to that a couple of "mystery illness" late omissions and we are golden.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
