ARe we confident of getting more than seven wins this year?

Featured Replies

Nothing has changed after today's loss (although abysmal), except we'll have to carry that loss around our neck's all season.

I still expect us to win between 10-12 games. Hopefully in the back half of the season we can start to find some consistency with our performances and string a couple together.

No. Today proved that the underbelly of this club has not changed. They are willing to fold when an opponent is hungrier than us. If we get lucky and cop 5 days where the opposition is completely switched off, and we have some luck, we may win 5 more. Our win/loss will be 100% decided by how hard our opponents come to play...

And the talk of numbers of wins and sneaking into finals has been laughable coming from the MFC. This is a club that 4 rounds of football back were 10 goals behind Carlton in the second quarter. There is very little heart in this club.

So what you're saying is we won't win as many as last year? You're posting utter tripe tonight, rufus. Take a bex and lie down.

Guys what are our chances of winning 7 you reckon??

Guys???

Correct I don't think we'll win as many as we did last year. The Bulldogs will not relax when playing us this year (they were clearly not switched on the first time they played us last year, you could see it as they were doing their warm up). Richmond will probably be swtiched on when they play us this year after losing to us last year. No way in the free world Geelong don't bring their intensity when they play us this year. Not sure who we are going to beat? Maybe Brisbane at the 'G? St Kilda play with significantly more pride than us and will beat us twice, I'm certain of it.

The way some are posting tonight, you'd think we wouldn't win another game all season.

Let's revisit this in a couple of months then, shall we?

You've got to learn to sift through the posts Maple - after a loss the same posters jump right in and pot everything about the club they can every single time.  They're even the ones who focus on negatives after a win.  You've got to find the posts that make sense and look at things in a logical way.  Once you do that you'll find it's not so bad.

Deal! I don't want to be right but I've seen this movie before.

 

We were lucky to win last week. After today not a chance.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
