Just to remind you all of my pathetic year on the punt. I put 50.00 on Melb, last year to make the 8 !!! What do they say about a [censored] and his money?

I just watched a horse of mine run 20 lengths last in heavy 10 ground.

I should ask him if he has ever played footy, I know where he could get a game.

    My guess is Messendon for their special amd mysteries compounds, but I could be wrong.

    I'm watching GWS v Richmond and if GWS has any interest in winning I'm staggered. But it's the AFL's baby so nothing will ever be said.

    Perhaps I'm just imagining it.

    You are not saying Tanking are you?

    I'm saying that this side is 80 points down at half time and I find it hard to believe they are anywhere near that bad. Bugger it, yes tanking.

    No guilty but here is a $600,000 as the boys in the AFL need a first class holiday after a very bussy year and every bit helps.

    Big bodied midfielder I'm guessing.

    If Yes , forget Messendon we have a few places right here in the MFC.

    Should the MFC have award the best and fairest award in 2013?

  • Quote

    Yes, award it to the supporter who went to every home game.

    No but I think he was selected at the sales by Prendergast.

    both, Prendergast said he wanted to be consistent across the board

    Out on Saturday night at a birthday party at which the Essendon / Carlton game was being played.

    two interesting things

    - How I would like to support either of those side, they played it out to the last seconds.

    Both in my opinion are on the way up and over the next few years to possible grand final appearances

    They were both below the MFC 6 years ago!

    - To a person all I got from the assembled group was pity. That is the ones that knew I was a dees supporter.

    The rest thought I supported Carlton. Oh for the days when we actually meant something in the competition.

    Supporting Carlton on Saturday reminded me what it is like to barrack for a decent team and being involved in the match.

    A lost feeling I realised on Saturday night.

    PS it is probably the wrong thing to say on here but the mate and I that I go to the games with most days decided yesterday we are going to a number of decent games next year instead of the agony that is the MFC.

    I would really like to enjoy a game of AFL for a change.

    I think the Blues may be on the way down, as Judd, Scotland, Simpson, Waite and other experienced players will soon retire, or leave, like perhaps Betts.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
