You guys are unbelievable. I'm seriously impressed at your ability to make this thread in to another one moaning about Melbourne. 

I hope everyone involved with the MFC are watching this and burning deeply [censored] me

I feel sick and so should every Melbourne supporter. THAT was our competition to play a Grand Final this year. Let that sink in.

[censored].

We weren't good enough to make the finals, what makes you think a GF was on the cards. 

I have hated this filthy club (Richmond)  forever, this hurts even more

Richmond will play in the Grand Final. They only need to beat Port (pretenders, garbage team who have only beaten Sydney and West Coast in the top 8), West Coast (garbage team, unworthy of finals, flat track bullies) or GWS (haven't won at the MCG this year).

We threw a near-monty Grand Final appearance in the bin, folks. Let that sink in.

We wouldn't be playing GWS at the MCG ?

By looking at the run to finals we could have had. We would've beaten Port. We might have stumbled against GWS.

But Port at AO, GWS at Spotless then Richmond at the MCG is a dream run in a finals series, make no mistake (especially with GWS back in rubbish form).

Was great to see the pus.sies look like absolute garbage in the last quarter. 

Such a shame there were no cut aways to Chris Scott eating his own shoe live

Well Richmond will make the gf. Probably a Adelaide Richmond GF. Gee if its a Sydney Richmond gf that would be hard to stomach. 

My god I hope the boys watched this tonight and saw the relentless tackling pressure Richmond put on geelong tonight. If that was us playing Richmond tonight in that 1st quarter we would have been smashed with that pressure. We would have panicked and over handballed. 

But yes it is hard to watch. Tomorrow night will be worse because it should have been us playing port. Oh well. Thats what happens.

No, Richmond are, which is how Richmond are dead certs to make the Grand Final now.

Unless the Dons provide a big upset, it will be Geelong vs Sydney next week.  If that happens, my money is on Sydney.   Cats out in straight sets. 

They're too reliant on 2 players where as teams win finals.

To make the finals we had to beat Collingwood ... if we'd done that we would have almost certainly been up against Sydney. 

You're looking at the last thing that happened (Crows possibly winning against the Eagles) more than what we actually had to do.

Anyway, there's no good any of us crying over spilled milk ... what's done is done.

We need to get a lot better so that these line-ball outcomes are therefore taken out of the equation.

Going for the Tiggers this year! Only VIC team in it I think. 

Adelaide v Richmond GF would be about right!

Well two finals down two average matches, all we heard last year was that the bye helped the standard of footy. I think it was just random luck, I hope the Swans win the premiership and we never see that bloody annoying buy before finals again.

If we had won, we would have been playing Sydney at the SCG. 

We also just beat Brisbane and lost to Collingwood.

If the Eagles lost Essendon would've had a better percentage in the end but you're right, this is just pointless theoreticals now. Point is, none of these outcomes happened and we're mere observers now, for the 11th year running.

This is also correct, I'm still just fuming. I don't think I've ever felt more hurt over a bloody game of football in my life. It proved the culmination of our whole season.

It's just maddening thinking of all the leaked goals, all the tight losses, all the 1 percenters that may have been the difference between 9th and playing in a semi/prelim.

It's a shame our club was ran by monkeys when we decided not to draft dusty

Yep, and it hurts like hell. We taken Trengove and Scully ahead of Martin. Trengove is coming to the end of his time at the club, and Scully is no longer around (and was a [censored]). Dusty is coming into his prime and looks an absolute brute. He is one hell of a player, and damn it hurts. But, and as annoying as it is - that is draft and trading. There were a couple teams that will kick themselves just as hard for overlooking Oliver (taking Weitering and Schache ahead of him), and St Kilda must be pretty disappointed in McCartin. Win some, lose some, but still hurts tonight.

So unlucky bud! I feel for you...

I had Burgoyne to kick 3+ goals against the Swans a few weeks ago at 81-1. He kicked 2.1. Missed a snap by a whisker and wasnt paid a free kick in the goal square which I thought was there.

Since then the bookie has massively cut the odds to all these type of bets. I would be lucky to get 10-1 on this thype of bet again. 

226-1 would have been a nice get.
