This weeks game is huge. We need to win this, and the last three minimum to play finals

Even with 8 wins on the board I still think we'll need a little luck to slip into the finals with our injury list.  I firmly believe we can make it and we should have a fit list to pick from which means we can cause some havoc, but the next three weeks will tell us plenty about our chances.  Win 2 and we're almost there.  Anything else leaves us on the edge.

We have to win this weekend. A game we would be expected to win, and if we can start adding Garlett, Hogan, Watts and Salem back into the side over the next couple of weeks, I will be feeling a little more confident again.

If we win this week we will 100% play finals.

If we lose we are still a good chance to play finals.

I choose to believe that we will be there in September. I dont dwell in the past or let fear rule my present.

Our KPI's are first class. Despite injuries and until last weekend both the seniors & seconds, after taking the first 6 or so weeks to get the new Goodwin game plan together were smashing it. We WILL come home with a bang and at the right time.

So far this season luck has not been with us AND we are still in there. Hopefully the winds will change as we get all our key personal on the park at the right time. Go Dees!

Mark McClure is just a bitter and twisted old blockhead with a vendetta against the MFC. 

But i kinda like the cut of his jib.

David King is trying to outdo his mates at Fox Footy by having consistent blind faith in the MFC (bless) to show he's some kind of master analyst by predicting our success (again bless) before others. 

But i reckon he's a [censored]. 

Grain of salt. 

 

Edit - FWIW I think we can and will make the finals series.

I am reminded of Carey playing for Adelaide vs Kangaroos where he was [censored] scared of Glenn Archer pretending to hit him.

#psych_them_out

You remember that incorrectly, Carey didn't take a backward step and Archer looked ridiculous.

Saints are the danger to us ... the return game vs the Saints will be critical 

Based on what we saw last weekend, Saints are a danger to everyone. What is it now, 6 wins in a row?

Not even close, Bing.  They've won three in  row, and lost the three before that.

So have won 3 of their last 6. 

They're going ok, but it we had their injury list they wouldn't get close to us.

Yes, that's the bit I remember.  You see Carey looking sh%t scared? I don't and why would he? 

Surely you jest.

Carey could've won the olympic long jump with that leap backwards. He would've had to take a spatula to his shorts afterwards to get them off.

Mind you, they both looked stupid

Id rather not play Swans they have had it over us the last two times . More recently by kicking sideways ( a tactic we chose not or couldnt counter )  and in uncontested and contested possession counts . 

Anyone else in the eight I reckon we can beat .

McClure cant take the fact that Melbourne are better than his beloved Blues .

If we win this weekend and the saints lose we'll be a game ahead of them, and they have a tougher run than us imo and they'd have to win probably 60% of those games to be a chance 

would put us right in the box seat

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    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
