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

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.

Posted (edited)

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.

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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
