Let's Sink the Saints

I agree that losing is the preferred option - and we will lose.

However, now that we have pick 1 sewn I won't be barracking to lose as much as I did in the Rich and Nth games.

    No.

    But if it were Collingwood...

    I've never met a bunch of supporters so proud to be inbred and toothless. Listening to those in this office talk about how their Pies have now got it sown up. It makes me want to “spew up!”

    I would tear up my membership if we won.

    Anyone who has threatened to 'tear up their membership' ever actually done it? I've always thought it was a melodramatic, nonsense threat, not to mention an empty one.

    And that's just putting aside the fact that your membership is in the form of a plastic card that isn't easily torn up.

    Wouldn't it be great now that pick one is sewn up to send the Saints into a tailspin? OK we miss a priority, but the morale boost would be sensational and it's always good to derail someone else.

    This is just about the most ridiculous thing I've seen posted on this forum - actually, any forum - this year. Congratulations.

    Stupid, Stupid, Stupid topic, your entitled to have your opinion but IMO losing the PP would be the biggest mistake MFC has and will ever make.

    Idiot!

    hmmm this might sound odd, but tbh, i wouldnt mind seeing us get belted. The saints are currently the no.1 team in the comp, and if they bring their "A" game, we are certainties to lose. With us getting smashed, i reckon it might create some extra drive within the playing group and possibly set up a preseason of hardwork and a massive desire to improve, as well it will reveal to our players what type of work rate is nescessary if we are to rise to the top. But then again, this scenario could have the opposite effect.

    Sorry but...a loss on Sunday is a win for the MFC!

    And yes #30 could become a very good player. Nothing too flash but steady and composed. One of many young Dee's to keep an eye on over the next few years (inc, picks 1,2 and 18 - sooooper :lol: )

    Subtlety and nuance is lost on you ain't it, Sergeant Schultz? And Mikey J and AzzKicka?

    The point of my post is we CAN this week honestly barrack for the dees because they won't get up. But for the first time in weeks we don't have to go wishing for a loss - it will be seen to.

    At least BBPowell got it.

    I reckon it's happened a fair bit with those who have been associated with Punt Rd Nasher.

    pitmaster. just take a deep breath and try to be patient!! only 5 days before we can all relax!!

    MFC is making some hard decisions in ending careers of current players like Robbo in interests of long term benefit of the MFC and all of us. Given all the effort to not win more than 4 games to this stage and 45 years since our last premiership absolutely essential we get picks 1 &2 now.

    Best for MFC is Saints have a good year this year and even win the flag as will mean we dont have to feel any sympathy for them in 2011 to 2104 wheh its our turn!!!

    As it happens i will rip it up if we lose as well. It's a time honoured tradition. The first one I don't rip up will be in 2 years and it will be at the end of September not the end of August.

    2014, you must be joking, my dad said we would win one in the ninetys,2014 thats a [censored] off joke, i just hope they recruit some boys with some dash, fancy not winning a flag for 45yrs, pathetic, every stinking years the same with this club, i hope the pp makes a difference, wouldnt it be nice to sit back turn the footy on look up on the lounge room wall and see a big picture frame that says, LIMITED EDITION MFC PREMEIRS 2012, as MR T says shows some nuts, GO DEMONS. ;)

    Sure, the second half of your post made its point, but don't get all whingey when you get exactly the reaction that the first half of your post - and the topic headline - was fishing for.

    I'm not going to be barracking for the Dees at all this weekend, because I don't want us to win. Simple.

    And you're either a troll, or not very clever. I haven't worked out which it is, yet.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
