MFC WILL win the flag in 2013


Red Sox

Recommended Posts

I've worked out that we will 'most likely'* win a flag in 2013.

This is based on the Increment of Four formula.

This Increment of Four is based on MFC winning the wooden spoon in 2009, winning four games.

In 2010, MFC finished in 12th position, an improvement of four places on the AFL ladder.

In 2011, MFC will 'most likely'* finish in 8th position, an improvement of four places on the AFL ladder.

In 2012, MFC will 'most likely'* finish in 4th** position, an improvement of four places on the AFL ladder.

In 2013, MFC will 'most likely'* finish in 1st position, an improvement of four places on the AFL ladder. In addition, the crowning of MFC as premiers in 2013 will have seen four years pass since the 2009 wooden spoon.

** - 2012, due to a fourth place finish could see a flag come this year, the formula sustains this anomaly slightly :mellow:

* - there is absolutely no basis or foundation for an Increment of Four. Except for a flimsy connection between 2009 to 2013. And the four wins in 2009. And the improvement of four places on the AFL ladder in 2010 :huh: Besides, the mighty Dees will win a flag before that!

Yep, need a few more Jacks in that premiership team plus another Viney would be nice especially from reports about this kid! Certainly no golfer.

I hate hearing the assumption a lot of fans have that Melbourne will be a top four team within the next few years.

Nothing is guaranteed in football.

No assumptions here the formula is faultless!

You are aware this is a bit of pi$$ take?

Demon Hill- at least you have a positive attitude.I like that.

Always positive JC. Don't doubt the formula though! ;)

Like it.

We also only won four more quarters than last year...

Is that right? Great pick up 45, wish I had of included that B)

Very good. I'm tipping your favourite player might be no.4 as well ? ;)

Pretty close HT, although if pressed for one it would be Jack Grimes - # 16. (Four x Four) :lol:

I was thinking 2014, considering our last flag was in 1964 (exactly 50 years apart), but I like your thinking DH.

How about Bruce ((four x four) + (four x four)), Jamar ((four x four) + (four x four) + four + four) or Trengove (four + four + (four / four))?

Also interesting to note that you have 824 posts - divisible by four

Your logic maybe good but I think 2013 is too early.

Look how long it has taken the saints after they bottomed out and they still have not won it.

We are only starting the climb and it is damn hard to win one.

just look at the pies.

They have had a lot of good teams and have won it once in the last 51 years

2015 is probably more realistic ( even though that seems a long way off to me)

St Kilda reached a preliminary final in 2004. They just dropped off afterwards, with the changing of coaches and some other things.

Rather humourous thread lads.

The bloke who wears four + four + four is pretty handy too.

Indeed, the man who wears four goes alright. The man who wears four plus four goes very well. The man who wears four plus four plus four goes very well. The dude who wears four plus four plus four plus four is unreal when fit. The guy who wears four plus four plus four plus four plus four is one of the better young backs going around. The guy wearing four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four is totally unreal. The man who wears four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four has been a handy pickup. The old boy who dons four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four has had a great career. The flash who appears in the four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four is the defending best and fairest winner. The giant in the four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four could be A/A and finally the youngster in the four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four plus four has come from nowhere to become best 22 when fit.

Wow.

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
