Non MFC Games Round 7

Recommended Posts

Anyone who said after the Richmond loss that injuries aren't an excuse (I believe the phrase was 'coulda shoulda woulda') needs to explain to me how a side as talented as GWS are trailing a side as middle of the road as St Kilda?

 

 

 

Ill accept your apologies in both written and verbal forms.

We showed (v Toiges) just how hard it is to win with two men down from half time.

A shame GWS weren't able to hold on with the two men down. This is a blow for our finals campaign, as we're fighting with Saints for 8th spot and need all the luck we can get. We're going to need to win the ones we should from here on in and pluck a few surprise wins like GWS have tonight if we're going to make it. 

Hopefully we belt the Hawks tomorrow and build percentage!

Yup, GW$ reduced rotations and losing a defender has hurt, and now their early good run with the maggots is getting the 'evener-upper'.

I can't believe I agree with BT - all they need to do is slow it down for the next two minutes and GW$ will struggle to get it done with under 4 minutes to go.

Never minded the sub rule.Helped avoid situations like this and us against Richmond. In fact, two subs even better. Few games then decided by injury/lack of rotation imbalance.*If subs unused they could be released to play at VFL when possible.

Calm down LT, we hold our own chances in our hands. Long season.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
