Maybe Sidebottom is someone we should be trying to lure to the Dees.

Would complement our midfield.

would take serious coin to get him to wander down swan road to our joint.

he would definitely add some cream, but we'd be giving something good up to get him, no doubt.

Saints now 5th on the ladder.  Taking their chances, the exact opposite of what we do.

Although it must be nice having an almost empty injury list.....

I must have spoken too soon when I said sooky Melbourne supporters wouldn't be able to take St Kilda winning personally.

They've earnt it. For the most part they have turned up to play and taken their opportunities. When they play a bottom team (e.g. Hawthorn) they make he most of that and make sure they win. We've done the opposite and it's why they're ahead of us again this year and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. 

We need leaders to help get the boys up so they don't drop games to bottom teams. We're going nowhere until we can turn that corner.

All clubs are in the same situation, The Aints are getting the job done

That's all you can ask

Yeah but I get what he is saying.

They lost Reiwoldt for one game and that's pretty much it.

They beat Carlton by 19 points.... not something to write home about.

They are being overrated big time by the media.

That is true but in a season where the top 8 is wide open they will probably make it because they have won games they should have and thrashed the bottom teams to get a good %.

Whether they deserve to make the 8 is a moot point.  The cards are falling their way.  I just wish it was us.

No they're not. It is a tight competition and this year a win is a win, there will not be many massacres in 2017

Carlscum are not that bad and Bolton is no fool

Tonight WE can win if we fight hard enough against the odds

The Aints have a lot of young kids who are learning to win, so far far they are learning faster than the MFC

Very early in the season to be saying this, mate. St Kilda may well have been saying similar things after Round 2. Long way to go yet and anything could happen.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    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
