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.

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

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

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.

    2024 Player Reviews: #42 Daniel Turner

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
