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.

[quote name='Stop: Jurrahtime' post='261043'" 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.

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.

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:

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 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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
