I really hope we get the opportunity to prove this.

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.

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

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.

Bulldogs won't play finals this year. Top 8 place is ours to lose now.

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.

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 .

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

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
