A Port win keeps us in touch with the top 2 and a home final + double chance (thinking big)

A Tigers win leaves Port with 6 wins after 11 games and gives us a two game buffer inside the 8.

 

Edit - We already  have a 2 game buffer inside the 8 even if Port wins.  But it will give us more breathing space.

    If we just keep on winning, everything else doesn't matter.

    You need to update your interests, no longer just 'trade breaking'.

    Hoping T.Boak has a big one...SC self interest.

    But we won't so analysing the pros and cons of who we want to win is a valid exercise.

    On the assumption that Tigers are a definite top 4 which is widely agreed a Port loss is our best outcome as it gives us just that extra little buffer in making the 8..

    Any word on Spargo joining Dusty in NZ for a rest?

    I’ve heard whispers that Spargo was inside Dusty’s backpack that he took onto the plane.

    Hope it’s not United Airlines.

    Private airline. Dusty’s old man needed some ‘packages’ bought over.

    Just as long as the 'packages' are in the 'prison wallet' and Spargo isn't.

    You could fit one and a half Charlie Spargos in there.

    I realise that Dustin Martin is out but who else is out to cause Richmond to be $2 plus underdogs.

    Pardon my ignorance but I've been travelling

    thanks

    Prestia, Houli and Rioli. Still though Tigers should be clear favourites.

    Dusty out means Port will roll them and prance around like millionaires, claiming they are Top 4 material.  Puke.

    Watts running around contests like a dog running around sniffing rubbish bins.

    Fritsch for Watts is the biggest upgrade of two players I can remember.

    Neither of these teams is very good. I'd back us to beat Port and Richmond (at AO at least, not that we'll play them there) handily.

    Jack Watts reached his career peak on QB last year. All downhill from there.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
