Prediction for Queens Birthday

Featured Replies

Posted

was at the game, great win gonna be a great weekend however..

i walked out of the ground tonight thinking .. whats going to happen queens birthday? Essendon are an out of form rising club, Collingwood will show us where we're really at.

Given we field the same team from tonight next week.. what do you think the final result will be?

Me thinks a close game

 

Been waiting for this thread....Ok lets hear it.

 

Melbourne by four.

Collingwood by 45.

Let's be realistic people, we won tonight and it was good, but Collingwood are miles ahead of us.

I don't think we can tell any more how they will play from just looking who is listed on the team sheet. What matters is what attitude those names bring to the game over 4 quarters. So much of our performance seems to come down to tenacity, attack on the game, gritted teeth, gut running, wild-eyed pursuits and tackling, hunger for the ball, running to space to give a team mate a kicking or handballing option, looking up quickly when we've go the ball to assess the options and finding the best one, honouring the leads into space, talking to a teammate, slapping him on the back or pulling him into line......

Which part of the roller coaster ride will we be on in any given weekend? I can't tell that any more from a team list.

I think Collingwood may use us to prove a point. We are one of the few sides to have troubled them last year, and they will look to stamp their authority on this one. I don't think we stand a chance of winning, but we can make it a close game if we play with the same attitude we showed tonight.

FFS... we man up well on them, like last year it was just that confidence...last week, yeah 65 at least...Now Imo...maybe, the boys might be back....such a difference tonight...still errors are apparent and could be exposed but hey...Pies so confident, Swan off to do yoga in South America to address his beer gut....Daisey the difference maybe...ya know, but you never know...maybe just maybe.... this is the team that was, the risk taking, down the centre....OH i would love to beat em!!

We got a lot of help tonight that we won't get against the Pies. I think it'll be, at best, a bit like the Adelaide game. We could beat them confidently for 90 minutes, and all they need to do is have Shaw, Daisy, Krakouer, Beams, Dawes, Didak, Sidebottom or Embullbummery suddenly explode and it's all over. Let's be honest though... it'll probably be Dick that kicks 4.

I think the Pies will be up for this game, as there has been a fair bit of talk about us playing so well against them, I have a feeling they will want to come out and put that talk to bed.

But sometimes certain teams just play well against other teams. Roos against Demons, Bombers against Saints, Demons against Pies........either team by under 15.


If we play like we did last night we'll give them something to think about. Tom Scully will be better for the run and Malthouse's recent spray wont hurt us. We're a chance.

So + 1

We will knock them over.

Melbourne by 18

Collingwood....be afraid, be very afraid.

There's no saying which Melbourne will turn up.

If we play like we did last night, or like we did against Adelaide, it will be a good game, as we do match up well against them.

If we play like we did against Carlton, North, West Coast or Hawthorn, they will smash us to smithereens.

Seriously, was that one....sentence?

Next Monday will be even better than last night.

90,000 at the G to watch the Dee's win by 30pts.

All the hype will follow, and everyone will be talking us up as contenders. Then we will lose to Freo at home the week after.;)

If we don't get al least 80k It will be a disappointing result.

Up to every MFC supporter to get themselves to this game.

Think we will have a let down after the emotion of this week.

I'm coming from Canberra, as I do every year. Love it!

Same. I might even pull the horns out.

Yeah, I'm not gonna pull the horns out.

Pies should win but I'm predicting the effort from this week (winning contested possessions, hard tackling, second and third efforts) will be followed up, and that's what I am expecting. Could be yet another very close one.

80k?

We aren't quite at the bandwagon stage I am afraid.

They are looking out through the logs, but they are still in the woodwork at this stage...

 

Tom Scully and Jack Watts to star....Jordie Mckenzie will tackle everybody in a filth Jumper

75,000 at the game (including Big Jimma) Demons by 21.

It is possible..... B)

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
