You say that like it is a fact. How did that loss set us back that much?

Im just throwing a figure out there but no doubt it set us back... every crushing defeat is another kick in the guts for the club and playing group.

The GWS was one of the worst... as I recall they were down to zero fit men on the bench by the 4th quarter, and still beat us by over 10 goals.

Remember everyone saying the game at the G' vs GWS at the end of last season was meaningless.. yeah right, we got flogged and it set us back 12 months

What in the name of god are you talking about you lunatic? Please explain to us how losing that particular match 'set us back 12 months' ?

Don't want to sound negative BUT I think a loss this weekend against Carlton would be the breaking point for some, players and fans included.

This is a must win game for our direction as a club. We rarely perform against clubs we are expected to win.

A loss this weekend would be the biggest loss in our history.

Lets hope we win!

You're doing a good job of disguising it

The ramifications of a loss this weekend to Carlton.....zero.

The ramifications of the loss to GWS last year.....zero.

The ramifications will be: the MFCSS defeatists paying out on players, Roos and the like on Demonland post match until the next match.

A loss this weekend would be the biggest loss in our history

You cannott be serious.

I'm impressed by your ability to quantify things. It wasn't good, it was a setback - but 12 months?

Yeah, why stop at 12?

HH being unusually restrained.

There's only so many floggings a supporter can suffer (unless they are BBO)

What are you being so rude for mr arrogant? To back up HH if you get absolutely flogged in the last game of the season or the last half of the season..you go into the pre season flat, compared to winning some late games and going into the next season with some momentum...that loss against GWS really hurt the club....

No different to other games this season we have meant to or should have won but lost.

Life goes on and as a Melb supporter we expect it to happen which is pathetic but normal for us.

We r a special breed us demons supporters.

Ramification are never positive for some. Some will say that if we win vs Carlton it will be because they are tanking, if we win vs Freo it's because they are resting and if we beat GWS it will be because they have given up on finals (assuming they are out by then). I'll be happy with 1 win, very happy with 2 and delirious with 3.

If we lose it would stop me taking the [censored] out of my Carlton supporting friends and acquaintances for following a team of tankers

I'd take 9 wins for the season!

We are simply a better side than Carlton on comparative form and ladder position hence the prohibitive bookies' odds . That will get us to the 7 wins tipped by many of us.... and then it's "that's all folks".

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
