Dont want to be negative but the truth is the way we are playing see below draw & which teams can we beat?

Bulldogs- H

Saints- H

Cats- A

Hawks- H

Swans- A

Blues- H

Bombers- H

Pies- H

Bye- This will be a win!

 

Bulldogs and Bombers our best chances!

And to be a chance against them will need a major form improvement.

Not looking good at all.

Bulldogs and Bombers? Really? Serious?

Honestly, at the moment, it looks like a winless year and I include GWS in that as well.

 

Who will we beat this year? The ultimate ignominy will be losing to GWS at the G which could very well happen. And who among us could even muster the energy to boo Scully out of the stadium without feeling the ultimate irony of having the team/club validate his decision on a weekly basis.


Jeez that's painful.

This just might get very very ugly.

Hibernation seems the only option.

Watched a bit of the GWS - West Coast game......dare I say it? You-know-who was outstanding. His running ability and fitness is amazing.

 

It's one heck of a draw, isn't it? Yikes. Pretty much all our winnable games are in the second half of the year.

you hope


I hope what?

he hopes all of our WINNABLE games are in the second half.

thats Hope.

mightbe many other words...but he chooses Hope. thats ok

Umm, no, I looked at the draw and saw them all there. I'm not hoping for anything.

I'm not saying we WILL win them. You understand the difference between "winnable games" and "games we will win", don't you?

If we spoon it...wow. Just wow.

That said, I take encouragement from Richmond a couple of years back, when the bookies paid out on them going winless IIRC and then they won six of their last seven.

yeahhhhh...lets keep going for the picks... yeahhhh...thats the go.. bugger the silverware...thats for fools !!

What else happened that year? They got a new coach who has since got them playing a respectable brand of football and having a very promising midfield.

What do we need right now? Exactly the above.

Thanks, Einstein.

And have a good week ahead.

Wrong. Not possibility. Probability.

The Chicke Little-ian attitudes that prevail on this site amaze me.

Yes. Our form is poor. Our third quarter fade-outs appalling. Our confidence shot. Our new game plan an over adjustment. Our adoption of said plan struggling. Our senior players down on form. Our injury list frustrating. But despite all of that, there WILL be weeks where we will play alot better than what we have dished up over the first three games. Sure, we look to be heading for a bottom four finish, but we sure as hell aren't going to go winless all season. When was the last time that happened? Even GC won a few last year, after some predicted they'd go winless.

Just this weekend -- Geelong went down to the Roos. The Pies had their pants pulled down. GC nearly beat the Bombers.

Shite happens! And it will happen to us.

P.S. For what it is worth, a 3 and 1/2 quarter effort next week should win it for us, and we're a chance against the Bombers, and a slim one against the Saints at the G, and by the time we meet the Pies we might just have the game plan to match them :)

Dont want to be negative ....

Then don't start a thread on the possibility of being 0-11 by mid-season.

Predicted 2 wins up to round 11, those wins were supposed to be Brisbane at the G and I can't remember the other one (probably Bulldogs). We won't beat them now, I don't give us a sniff, something is majorly wrong with this team. I have fallen out of love with the playing list in a major way.


What else happened that year? They got a new coach who has since got them playing a respectable brand of football and having a very promising midfield.

We've got the coach.

The rest will come.

At least if we spoon it, we will get the first two draft picks. Or pick 1 and Viney. Maybe we should put off Jack Viney until 2013.

Yep, it's gonna take more time and we are in for some severe growing pains.

Next revelation...

We should see improvement across the board in the second half of the season. :wacko:

 

We will beat the Pies and that will be the game that puts them into crisis mode and will be the game that will help us turn the corner.

I think we will be 2-9 after 11 rounds. Should be able to muster up a win against the Bulldogs, Saints, or Bombers, and I have a good feeling about the Pies. That being said, I'm an optimist. When an optimist picks 2 wins from 9 games you know you're in trouble...

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
