Ninth is my prediction with 13 wins unless the season is very even  for teams fifth to ninth.

Our back line has holes you can drive a truck through, with luck it might be good enough to sneak us into Eighth.

But the season so far has not shown much in the way injury luck so I struggle to see finals football in 2017.

Am I allowed to change my mind on Saturday night?

Not too shabby old fella ;)

    I'm thinking us, the Saints and West Coast to finish on the same amount of wins meaning final 7-8-9 placings will come down to percentage.

    Sorry, but I think the overall 'opinion' of this thread is a bit optimistic.

    Fair effort here....

    Sadly bb I have not been inaccurate over the last decade.

    I would love an MFC side to make my predictions wrong.

    After last Saturday I am too disappointed to contemplate 2018. 

    Perhaps in five moths time.

    almost prophetic this post.

    Most if not all of us underestimated Richmond

    Looks like we had a pretty good idea of where we were going to finish.  Somehow along the way we forgot and started to hope for more.

    We should be fighting for one of the lower spots in the eight.  I think any better than that is overly optimistic.

    • 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.
