Absolutely, there is nothing better for a football club than a loss :rolleyes:

The mind boggles!

Are you saying that a loss can't be good for a club?

    The 20 to 49 margin is the most popular choice after 108 votes.

    We'll be 5 goals down before our midfield decide to pull their collective finger out and we'll probably win by about 10 points.

    You guys are all way too confident, if any one could lose an unlosable game it would be us. If we're a decent side should win by 10 to 15 goals. But we are just going and will probably win by around 5. Enough to paper over the cracks and keep the wolves from the door.

    Be afraid!!!

    We need 34 points to get our percentage into 3 figures. It's gonna be close.

    make that 100+ points as gablett not playing according to reports

    The only report I've read stated that he's a bit sore but will play (someone started a Demonland thread that linked to the article).

    time will tell of course

    point being, if gablett doesn't play add another 30 points

    I said previously the yardstick is 70 (mot that I expect that, the way we are playing)

    Who decides the yard stick?

    The Dogs and the Blues are the only ones who have played in that yard and their stick is bigger than ours.

    The Dogs and the Blues are the only ones who have played in that yard and their stick is bigger than ours. we are not as good as carlton and dogs should have won by more - easy, us 70 points

    hey dl we are trying to win the match

    HaHaha, I know. But or biggest waekness is going in with our most juvenile side, away from home, without good form.

    For a win we sjhould pick stronger bodies, so I'm suggesting a mixture. Keep Watts this week, but jetison the timid.

    Then back to development after the break.

    How is possible that a team "should of won by more". Should have/would have/could have are irrelevant really. Melbourne couldwin the premiership this year, but that doesn't mean much if we don't does it?

    nope 23, 21 players plus the sub plus Bailey = 23, however i will overlook the sub if he doesn't get much game time.

    with ess and carl, swans and saints and rich only playing gc once , must win both games vs gc by heaps as % will be important if going for a posi with any of other sides

    How kind of you.

    What ever the outcome is today,the club and players are on hiding to nothing.Is a 50 point win enough?Is a 100 point win enough? Is 12 different goal scorers enough?Is a single goal scorer of 6-9 goals good?

    God help our club if the unthinkable happens.What ever the outcome,aside from the points,it means zero.

    Our full time job as a football club at present should be entirely focused on earning respect.It has been sadly lacking for 40 years.This football club drains my soul at times,because of lack of intensity.

    Thats the first time I've had a chance to see the Suns matched up against another young side developing.

    The Suns are very Poor. Ordinary. They won't win many games at all this year playing nothing football like that.

    To think I was concerned about this week.

    I would be thrilled if they didn't win a game this year. And I think that is a very possible scenario.

    In my opinion, these continued floggings are only going to hurt GWS' hopes of getting players like Scully.

    As has been said, I can't wait to see what Collingwood does to them. B)

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
