how many season defining victories must a team have before the season is actually defined......

I can help you with that but only if you define "season-defining".


Not sure if mentioned in other match related threads but I'm very much looking forward to Frost v Franklin. I think Frost will have Buddy's Ā measure and expose him going the other way, and yes I'm aware some of Frosts kicks are a little wayward but his kicking has improved.

I hope we 'season define' every week right up until and including the GF.Ā Ā And BTW it ain't Friday the 13th.

I reckon our season has been defined. Competitive since the first game, and have gone up a gear in the last month. Notwithstanding our injuries, I'm confident for this game. That doesn't mean I think we're certainties, just that our best is good enough and I know they'll bring it.

This is the twoĀ form sides of the competition, battling it out at the G in prime time.Ā Can't wait.

Same, Frosty has the tank and the wheels to be a matchĀ for Buddy, its only Buddy's footy craft and experience that will tell in this one. If Frost gets the jump on him early and frustrates him I reckon we will do well...

And if buddy kicks a few goals on him he needn't worry. Omac will get the blame.

The pressure will be on Buddy after last week...

It seems a little strange to be thinking in terms of GAMEDAY on a Friday morning when you're about to head off to work but it's real.

Game on ... tonight!

Ā 

...and for the Todd Rundgren fans.

Last day in September will tell all.

I've been a big fan of Frost this year - and I believe a true reflection of his progress will be determined tonight playing on Buddy. I'm backing him to get the job done and keep him quiet.

We're far better clearance team, if our makeshift forward line can function again tonight I think we'll win, but it'll be close.

Melbourne less than a goal

Season will be un-defined if we get absolutely pumped.

Trying desperately to shake the MFCSS, but it's hard.... Ā  :-/

People like you are exhausting to be around

It's going to be a long day waiting for this game. Ā Pretty pumped and excited to see how we go on the big stage, and even with the injuries I'm positive we will give a great account of ourselves regardless of if we win, lose or draw.

One lock tonight - Viney and Oliver to both get 30 touches for the game and lead the charge from the midfield!


Ladder position aside it is a huge, huge game for the club and sponsors as it is the first Friday night game we have hosted in 5 years!Ā 

Put in a great performance and we have a better chance of more Friday night games next year and the subsequent benefits for membership, sponsors and merchandising.

Of all games to have our big name draw cards out its a shame it is this one as it means attendance and TV audiences won't be maximised.Ā 

The AFL and TV executives will be watching so the team must put in a competitive, 4 quarter effort and hopefully win (or not lose by much).Ā 

The swans have won the last 5 against us.Ā 

Enough is enough it's time to end this run and what better stage to do it on than a Friday night.Ā 

Ā 

Looking forward to tonight's game,and although I love a close game when we win,that Collingwood game 3 weeks ago and again last week,has drained me.I feel like I should be omitted for mental fatigue,however i figure if I start drinking shortly,I just may be able to cope when tonight comes.Self employed and can't get of my backside to do anything today because of anticipation of the game tonight.I might ring myself and call in sick.

Go Dee's.

Wouldn't mind a week off - a 10 goal win would be lovely.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
