Dear Brisbane

I know it may be impossible but can you please find something and beat richmond. 

Dear Richmond, can you drink your own bath water, choke, and let Brisbane beat you?

    Richmond are such Whingers to the umps if a decision doesn't go their way.  And Dimma is an angry little man.

    Brizzy are right in this this at half time.

    Fingers crossed for another Richmond CHOKE.

    Have to give credit where credit is due:  Dangerfield!

    He couldn't walk but kicks 5.6 (most after the injury) leading to the ball.  He single handedly won the game - 

     

    Roughy barely touched him.
    Talk about putting on a bloody act.

    I'm hoping it's us that does the slaughtering.

    Toiges do not have an easy run home with GWS, Geelong and the Saints plus the Hawks and Freo at Freo.

    Their "easiest" game is Suns at the GC.

    When will the umpires start penalising the bulldogs for their throws.  It is so obvious - they swing both hands out the front and the ball flies out.  Its very rugby style.  Obvious!

    Pretty much a disaster weekend for the Dee's. Apart from the loss,Richmond,Swans,Essendon, Eagles & Bulldogs all winners. This time next week will likely be out of the eight. Relaunch from then.

    I see it a bit differently.  Firstly, let me say making the top 4 wasn't realistic with all our injuries. 

    In terms of spots 5th to 8th -

    • Richmond and Sydney were locks for a spot before this weekend. 
    • The Bulldogs can't make the 8 so beating Carlton is of no consequence. 
    • The Eagles having a big win will drop StK out of the 8 and drop Ess to 10th.   
    • On principle I would rather see Eagles in the finals than Ess!

    I'm not sure what you were hoping.  If the finals were now it would be Rich, Syd, Melb and Eagles playing in Elim finals and there is a good chance that will be the result altho the positions may change.

    For mine that is a good result for us especially if we get a Vic final and avoid it being vs Sydney.

    Losses for the Swans,Bulldogs,Eagles & Tigers would have made us four points better off. Simple. All were possible in the run.

    Don't see it that way.  Even if we lose to Port (which I think is 50/50) for us to fall out of the 8 requires StK to beat Sydney or Ess to beat North.

    Yes, it does!   But it isn't relevant if the other teams were already locks for the top 8 or aren't in contention.  Rich and Syd were already locks.  I am confident of of saying StK and Bulldogs won't make the 8. 

    Spots 7 and 8 will be between us, Eagles and Ess.  Bottom line is we win games we make it.  We don't win games we are dependent on the other contenders knocking each other out.

    • 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.
