GWS- How Confident

Featured Replies

Posted

After the last 3 weeks of terrible performances, realistically what chance do you think we are of winning on Sunday? They have a few decent players missing through suspension and this is their first game on the G this year (I believe?) but it's safe to say they have been putting up a bigger fight than we have lately. With that being said I think we are a 70% chance of winning and I really hope the boys can find a little bit of hope, confidence and consistency that we've been lacking.

 

WE will beat them by 60 points.

well the cat is safe from a kicking and the walk to the papershop on monday will be a pleasure.its all gonna be good

They have no Ruckman and Full forward.

If we bring Gawn in we will smash them.

Mitch will kick six plus.

geeze misplaced optimism here.. we've just turned in the worst start to a season in nearly 30 years, we have hardly put together 0ne good piece of play in 6 hours of football. We absolutely stink at the moment and I would not be confident against anybody.


I'm confident we'll improve on last week, but improve enough to beat GWS, who will be up and about? I'm not sure.

GWS and Kevin know a scalp is on the line. Whilst neither will admit it, they'd love to claim it.

We should win, and potentially start building towards a respectable season

Agree, Let’s just hope they play us into some form, like we have to teams in the first 3 rounds. Viney will tear Scully a new one if he is given a chance!

Sheedy acknowledged it on the Backpage panel, last night.

The Bookies reckon more like 62%; I'm not quite that confident.

There's nothing upon which to base any confidence.

It's not easy to be confident about a team which has yet to win a quarter for the season.

They have Giles and Cameron, both very good young players.

If we even equal them in clearances and possessions, we will win, because Mitch Clark will destroy them... Remember when we played them last year, before he got injured in the second quarter? He was beyond dominant

Edited by Demonof1994


yeah he booted 4 goals in the first quarter against them last year

Would have ended up kicking 10

Not very confident at all, I we give them a sniff early I think we will drop and they will get a massive boost.

We won't be beaten ....... we can't be beaten!

If the players take this mindset into the game, and they are prepared to fight tooth & nail to prove the point, we will win the game and perhaps a modicum of respect.

dees to notch up first win and do it easy

I reckon setanta o'hailpin will return and destroy Garland.

That being said I think we'll fall over the line with a 6 point win, after GWS make a late charge.


If the players respect neeld, we should win.

And vice versa.

Given our record so far, we cannot afford to be cocky, these guys will be looking for their first win and expecting us to be the best chance they will have to get it. They have shown more promise than our side in a couple of their games so far, so lets not get ahead of ourselves.

 

I think we'll [censored] them to be honest

I reckon setanta o'hailpin will return and destroy Garland.

Setanta was leading The Coleman (or almost so doing) a few years ago after a couple or few rounds IIRC.

Indeed he had 16 up after 6 rounds in 2010 I find. At 199 and 100 he's bigger than anything we have.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
