Non MFC Games Round 7

This is a great win by the saints!

For those looking to finals, for anyone to be a shot, you need to keep GWS out of the top two.  If they get two home finals- that ties up one grand final spot right there.

I'm loving this game, even if the Saints are going to win and ruin my tipping. 

I'm forced (reluctantly) to admit that Scully is a pretty decent player. 

I'm thrilled that young Minchington is getting game time and having an impact for the Saints.  He's never going to be an automatic start, but he's solidified into a genuine B- player who can be trusted to hold his own.  Nice reward for a heap of hard work.

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

 

I'm just frustrated as the season is 1/3 over and we've blown a few chances. We haven't had to leave Melbourne yet and now have to start traveling so the easy part of our draw is over and we didn't capitalise enough IMO. We can definitely still make finals, but we should probably be better off than where we are and we are also going to have to rely on other teams around us (mainly Saints) losing too. 

We need to win 4 of our next 5. Should beat Hawks, North, Gold Coast and Collingwood. We cannot drop any of those games are we don't deserve to make finals. I hope we don't drop any of those as I'm f*cking sick of not seeing finals action and success. Us supporters have had it worse than any other club this past 10 years.

LT we are still learning to win. 

We should be 5-1 but we are not. 

Still 16 games to play...

Am now waiting for a champion data stat about injuries that will force the AFL to make a change to the rules next season.

It's literally the deciding factor in any game it occurs more than once.

Certainly two out by half time presents an enormous challenge but no rule can fix that......not that that would stop AFL HQ making a knee jerk decision.

I'm with you brother. The 3 losses in a row hurt. We should have won them all.

But there are games we will drop that are unexpected and hopefully some that we will pinch when it's unexpected. 

Saints won one tonight that they shouldn't have. But its only round 7. Long way to go.

Aarrgghh, me too man! I was so foul after the Richmond loss and it was compounded by having their catchy song in my head for 3 bloody days!!

i still maintain ours is the best, however. Many agree

Unless they play doggies again there.

For all the talk of them being 2 down...it was only one down.

GWS put the kid back on that was concussed and he didn't look right.

I hope they get hammered for this but doubt the AFL will do anything about it.

GWS is at have a monopoly on talent but they still haven't proved they can beat good sides in Melbourne. As I said before they will struggle playing finals at the MCG and now Etihad.

Yes we have to win sunday for sure. Whorethorn are cooked. If we roll over it will be curtains for 2017

i reckon 12 wins will be enough to make the 8 this year. 

It's going to be tight as.

    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

    The Demons almost blew a six goal lead and ultimately hung on to win by three points over the North Melbourne Kangaroos at the MCG and have temporarily jumped back into the Top 8.

    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.
