Good on the Dogs

They lost Higgins, Cooney and Griffen to other clubs, lost their coach, Gia retired.

Lost possibly their best player to an ACL in preseason.

Signed Tom Boyd who doesn't really even fit in the team.

Great adversity story. Hope either them or the Tigers win an unlikely flag or at least get to a prelim

    Fork the Toigs.

    Fork 'em both actually.

    If we can't win it , I don't want anyone to win it.

    You left out that the Hawks lost too :):lol:

    Anyone else expecting a physical response from the Hawks next week? Clarke seemed very aggro at his presser after the game. I am hoping to see a few coat hangers and flying elbows from the usual suspects, perhaps the odd lifted knee as well. And a raft of suspensions would be great.

    It's mathematically possible. But who wants to see the Hawks cruise to another flag? Let alone another Hawks-Swans GF

    I still have my money on Freo. They have set cruise control on idle for the past several months on many games. Now starting to rest players and will get a few back for the finals. Hawthorn may be peaking too early and WC suddenly don't look so formidable. A Hawks win this week and Freo continuing as is may see us playing a second string Freo in round 22.

    I’ll believe they’re a contender when they win the Premiership. Nothing else will convince me.

    Richmond supporters would do well to adopt this mindset also.

    How the fark did we lose to the Saints and Essendon?

    Htf did we lose to these [censored]?

    We kicked ourselves out of both games. Three weeks we kicked 7 goals 18, 8 goals 12 and 6 goals 10. You can't win games with conversion like that. Even in the collingwood game we only broke even at 13.13. So many easy shots missed, it is going to cost you games and that's just what it did.

    Smart tanking.

    We know we've got those goons covered, but we need a top 5 pick to trade for that A+ midfielder. So we missed some sitters and didn't put anyone back v the Saints at Etihad.

    We could afford to beat the Pies because we knew the Bulldogs would hammer the Bombers and they'd drop below us anyway.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
