    North - just so hateable.  We need to spank those campaigners later this year.

    Probably the two most boring clubs. If they folded nobody would care.

    I thought maybe they had multiplied the real figure by the number of games Brent Harvey had played...

    Those late North goals are definitely a massive bonus for us (and anyone else in that group). 

    26,000 is a very poor crowd for two melbourne based teams who are based out of the same ground. But goes to show you we're not the only fans who don't turn out to the joint. 

    I hope plenty of Dees fans do get down to Etihad, make plenty of noise to will the team on!

    well... there go North's chances of the eight .... if they ever had one.

    they would need to win eight out of 10. While they have a relatively easy run home it isn't that easy.

    If Richmond beat Sydney tomorrow at the MCG that is almost certainly the end for the Swans. (May drop along and watch that match if there is some winter sunshine.)

    On that basis we then have five teams who cannot make the 8.

    The mathematics is becoming interesting to say the least.

    What's interesting is that we should have three teams from last years 8 not make it this year 

    North, Hawks and Swans.....

    will we take one of those three places?

    sorry @chook  thought yo were serious earlier...  youre not are you .....

    we're better than that...( either of...that)

    Tough one this afternoon but on balance I will be going for the Swans.

    I am hankering after that fourth place on the ladder if by some miracle we have a good finish to the season.

    Go the Swanettes !!

    Hopefully it's a cracking game but the Swan run out big winners.

    Not tough at all, easy as hell Jim.

    Swans win  + Demons win = we leapfrog the Tiggers and top 4 is in our sights.

    GO SWANSS DESTROY THE TIGER PRETENDERS

    A question - given the pre-finals bye would a 5th place finish, with home ground be better than a 4th place finish, away game (most likely in Adel or Syd)?

    Feels like the "2 weeks off in a month" scenario of a top 4 win in first week could be a momentum killer, especially for a young team.

    Tad early for that Paul, let's just make it to September first

    Can't decide who I want to lose more... Sydney if they lose pretty much zero chance of making the 8 which gets rid of one of our competitors... but if Richmond lose then opens up that 4th spot in the top 4.... plus I HATE Richmond 

  • Quote

    Everyone loves the Tigers and I have no idea why.  They don't play a brand of footy, nor have the cattle, that will hold up in September.  Matthew Lloyd was even calling Dimma the 'Coach of the Year'.  I hope they keep pumping up their tires as their fall will be all the more enjoyable when it happens.

    Edit - and by everyone I mean them media.  We all know every neutral fan hates the Tigers.

    Was responding to Petraccattackers comment about "aiming for 4th spot"... 

    and I agree it's too early.

    • 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.
