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!!!

    not to mention the season is over..and the membership would've been paid for too... so it wouldn't really matter either way hahaha

    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.

    pitmaster, you were asking for it with the topic and first sentence or two :P

    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.

    Exactly what I thought :P

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
