Just wondering if it is just me being optimistic and bias but I having been tossing up for days if I should tip us. Sitting 2nd in two comps and I have a strong feeling we will stand up and beat this mob but then again probably more hope than anything. After last week don't know how I could even think about tipping us, but after all, the week after a belting is the only time we seem to play well.

I'll stick to my 1 pt Dee win prediction. Theres no logic really to it as stated elsewhere. It just strikes me as the inane annoying and infuriatling frustrating type of thing Melbourne will do..

I wouldn't do it if I was in your position mate, too risky.

Consider the percentages. If you tip against them and they win you've lost nothing because no-one else will tip them but there's a far greater chance of you tipping another upset over the next 5 weeks.

Was thinking the same, nice post. If they do win i'll be ecstatic anyway.

yes..I agree.. but at this end of the tipping season sometimes you need to take the maverick bets. ...

Would I put real money on them ???? :rolleyes::unsure::rolleyes:

One thing I do like is that this is the first game for a long long time where both of our most dangerous players - Scully and Davey - are in the team. Both need to be tagged, but it's a risk to tag them both, especially if they play a large part of the game on the ball together.

It's time for the likes of Green & Moloney to step up as leaders should and play the games of their lives too. They'll never have a better opportunity to bury their reputation as "flat-track bullies".

Still think that if we can get within 10 goals we'll be doing well. But you just never know ...

I've only mis-tipped one MFC game this year......I thought Richmond would get over us! I've tipped us tomorrow. Crazy I know, but something's gnawing away in my tipping mind that this is going to be the upset of the year. Emotional blindness? Maybe, but maybe not! If we all tip the Dees, you never know what power lies in the collective consciousness. And I've tipped Gold Coast at Skilled.....Naaaah, not really!

I love this sh!t. You're up there amongst the leaders because you have tipped more winners than most of your competition, yet now you're close to winning it you're going to change your tip based on who you think everyone else will tip!

How about you tip who you think will win? Will Carlton win, or Melbourne? That is the question. No extra points for clever tips or half points for your underdog almost getting up.

By the way, I'd tip the Blues if I were you (which I'm not)

I tip Melbourne to win every week that's why I'm sitting second in the Demonland tipping, that and the fact I forgot to put my tips in one week and got 1 instead of 7.

I dont see how another week of stress and bad feeling around the club will improve the team as mentaly weak as they are.

If they do win this week it will becuase the leaders have stepped up and draged them over the line. I know thats what judd would do.

Our leadders have a very poor track record but I would be estatic if they proved me wrong.

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
