Where will Melbourne finish next year?

Featured Replies

Don't want to think about it yet.

After having such high hopes at this time last year and to only see our beloved Demons full part in front of our very eyes I feel sick just thinking about it.

 
 

Optomist - 10 wins and finish 11th

Realist - 6 wins and finish 15th/16th

Pesimist - 2 wins and LAST

I think as a realist and would hope we could at least be competitive.

2013 saw 2 wins ... one with a huge 4th qtr and the other by 3 pts with a huge 3qtrs.

Looking at the draw, 6 wins and no losses by 80+ points is the goal (9 wns in 2015). It's a tough competition. Everyone improves.


I enter every game wanting to win, but hate being disappointed during the season:


..so realistically I think GWS are ready for a slight move up, while I'm not sure who we'll pass. Possibly Saints, Dogs, maybe someone like Brisbane will fall.


So I'll predict a better season with our % substantially rising 25% from 54 to 79%, 3 to 7 wins yet finishing 15th to 17th.

seventh

7th

bookmark that

I like to think that at the moment the whole MFC universe is in a hot, dense state...

 

Gotta love the off season. This thread would be a carbon copy of one from each of the past 5 years. Personally, I don't think we will be anywhere near the top half, but that isn't a disaster. Will be content with clear improvement and no big blowouts, but obviously hoping for more.

Surely if we can beat Essendon, West Coast, Carlton and the Dogs at the G we can beat Gold Coast too?

I'm pretty astonished so many people think we'll beat the Saints at Etihad.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • PREGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
