Round 15 Non MFC Games

Someone please advise me as to who to barrack for. I'm assuming that a West Coast loss gives us a better chance at the top four but an Adelaide loss solidifies our position in the eight. I don't really look at other team's draws (out of laziness) other than it would be good to play an Adelaide team that's shut up shop.

Same with Hawthorn versus GWS I guess.

Because playing a Collingwood team that shut up shop last year favoured us greatly

If Adelaide lose it will make it tough for them.  They have Richmond (away) followed by Geelong (home) coming up.  Plus they play us, Port, GWS and North on the run home so would have to cause a few upsets to make it.

I think I want the Eagles to win this.  I'd prefer to create separation with the chasing pack than hope for an unlikely top 4 finish.

More like impossible, or close enough to.  They'd likely need to win their last 8 games. That isn't happening.

How on earth did we lose to Port ??

One could also ask how did CFC get so close to Port or how did Port allow CFC to get so close?  After all we beat them by 109!

Starting this thread early as it's shaping for a big weekend ladder wise and for the Dees. Who do we want to win these crunch games

Rich v Syd (THURS)

- I hope Tigers win, we don't want any interstate teams in the top 4. ✔️✔️

WB v Cats

- Cats are definitely not playing their best this year and Dogs played OK v North and you don't know what they'll bring. A Dogs win hopefully✔️✔️

Carl v Port

- Carlton played well yesterday and Port aren't as good as people reckon, they actually played awful v Dees and we still found a way to lose. Upset highly unlikely but game is at the MCG.✖️

Adel v WCE

- Can the Crows at home upset a vulnerable WCE?✔️✔️

GC v Coll

- Collingwood win easily

GWS v Haw

- Hoping GWS win, Hawks are zoning in on a top 8 finish

Melb v STK

- We need to win and win big, keep that percentage up, 50+ win would be nice

Ess v North

- I think Bombers will win this, North doing their usual start the season well and folding this year I'd say, Ess win helps us.

 

 

 

 

Few results going our way. There is such a thing as luck maybe

After watching the top teams last couple of weeks no one is touching Richmond this year will win the flag quite easily 

I really feel like Richmond will slip back to the pack in rounds 18-23 and not have great form come September, no idea why just a hunch. 

It's quite amazing really teams 1-10 all possibilities to win the flag. 

I would put adelaide into that group as they are still to get some strong players back but I think it might just be a bridge to far from here to make the 8

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well …

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
