Surely the lower placed team winning would always be to our advantage - then it is entirely up to us to keep winning 

In the first 5 minutes maggots have put themselves in the line of fire at least twice.  Now they have been declared sacrosanct (most of the time anyway) they seem to think that players should avoid them without taking any personal responsibility

    If you were playing a drinking game around how many times they mention De Goey and his 'form', you would already be legless.

    So who do we want to win tonight's game.

    My head says Collingwood by a fair margin

    .........never thought I'd say that !!!

    I hope, Luke Beveridge's men.

    I am so sick of these moron commentators saying Buckley turned Howe into a defender...

    Didn't you hear, he turned Dunn into a defender as well.

    But we aren't going to win everything.... unfortunately we're not that good.

    Dogs lose and they have to win 9 out of 13 to make the 8 .. very hard

    Basically you can take 8 teams out of the equation almost this weekend on that theory.

    And then there were 10 !!!

    Definitely better for us if the Dogs win. Pies are a legitimate contender for a spot in the 8, so we want them to lose. Dogs aren’t contenders and have horrible percentage, so even if they win they’ll be 30-40% behind the good teams.

    1. Umpires loving the doggies.

    2. Commentary terrible.

    3. McLean ducks and throws

    4. Can't believe Mayne gets a game.

    Pretty much the exact game I had imagined

    Ed Richards for the Dogs looks a player. I was a fan before he was drafted due to his pace, but he’s showing goood footy smarts and toughness too down back. Looks a real likely type.

    Pies look to be taking control of this one now. They’re clogging the corridor better and Doggies are relying on mistakes to get their shots here.

    Cox is such a spud

    You could have told me before I put him in my SuperCoach team.

    Neither of these teams look great.

    The doggies are a shadow of the team that won the flag two years ago.  They look unfit.

    Pies look the better side but surely we have them covered.

    FMD Footscray played like dogs in the third quarter.  How did they ever win a flag.

    PS and the fourth has started even worse for them.

  • Quote

    With this win and a bloopy for Collingwood next week against Freo they’ll be 7-4 by QBH. Pretty nervy already bout that one.

    The dogs are just nothing on the team that won it in 2016. And honestly they wearn’t elite back then either, they had a great month.

    Absolutely no flow or run to the Dogs game – they’re merely a shadow of their former selves. Look forward to meeting them in the next few weeks.

  • Quote

    The only positive is if we win Sunday and both win next week its sets up a massive game on QB.

    Pies in that third quarter were rebounding so easily out of Dogs fifty. Shows the importance of forward defensive pressure.

    Pendlebury, Sidebottom and to a lesser extent Treloar and DeGoey are their main movers.

    Neither team has good forward structure.

    If we bring our game we should have these two teams comfortably.

    Dogs have kicked 3 goals since quarter time.  They're poo.

    They kicked 5 with umpires gifts in the first.

    A bunch of soft frees and a couple of 50s in front of goal.

    At least they earnt the three since quarter time.

    Have you seen a more gutless effort? Scared to attack when you’re 15 points down against a mediocre Collingwood. 

    Weak as.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
