Non-MFC Games Round 23

Featured Replies

So if Brisbane get the upset (looking possible at the moment) then Adelaide get their home final IF they pull their finger out. If I were Campo, I'd be screaming it into every player's ears at 3QT that beating Geelong means a home final after all.

Come on boys!!

 

11 points at 3QT. Going to be an excruciating final quarter.

Lions missed so many opportunities to put the Dogs away and now trail by 8 points.

 

Adelaide's blown it in this fourth quarter. Lions are back on top of the Dogs and that home final remains a chance, but they've let Geelong steamroll them late.

Brissy giving their supporters some optimism and joy to go into the off season with. This is what we need tomorrow.


Adcock having a good last game for Brissy, slightly better than Staker's.

Brisbane taking it to a top 5 team. Tomorrow we play a bottom 10 team and we'll get smashed.

dogs aren't top 5 even if they win (which looks unlikely)

Nonetheless, 18th with nothing to play for but pride and they beat a squad about to play finals footy.

When was the last time we actually played *well* in the last round? (Hint: we were also about to play finals)

Big deal.

When the season was still alive we rolled some very, very good sides. The Lions come good in the last round against a side that had a creche down back and were hoping to get through unscathed. Not much to get your knickers in a twist about.

Angriest person in Australia right now - Scott Camporeale? With that Dogs loss they had the chance to move into 6th and a home final. Instead, they're almost certain to have to play the Dogs at Etihad instead.

Meanwhile, nice to see Brisbane play their best game in the last round. I know they didn't have Beams, not sure who else wasn't playing, but it would be nice if we didn't routinely consider our final games 'meaningless' and tried to put on a show for the fans.

don't worry, we'll thrash great waste of space ^_^:wacko:


yep adelaide stuffed it up but it was always going to be hard beating geelong at there home ground when they are farewelling 3 of there great players.

But Adelaide should be applauded for actually getting to the finals and achieving what they have this season after what they have been through.

You mean like beating Geelong at their home ground when they are celebrating one of their all-time favourite players' 300th game? :P

There's something about the right of screen at Adelaide Oval.

Screw this round, it's going to cost me a huge windfall in tipping, I can just tell.


wow what a strange round. The way its going Carlton will probably beat hawthorn.

More likely the Saints will knock over the Weagles to give the Hawks second spot!

We are gonna by to finish the year 2 games from a wooden spoon

Dawks a lazy 9 goals up at 3/4 time....Calton blue baggers .....Wooden Spoon circa 2015.....best thing all season.

 

Thanks to the Crows throwing away their home final, I'm equal first in tipping now. Fantastic. :mad:

Question is, who holds their nerve tipping in the last 4 games that all appear reasonably one-sided? The only surprise upset I can predict is us, but this team hasn't won a single time that I've tipped them this year.

  • 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.
