ROUND 19 - Non MFC games

Featured Replies

I know Port beat us (luckily I thought) a few weeks ago, but they don't worry me one iota.  If we make it to September, I'd be very happy to play them at any venue.

 

Doesn't look like any results are going our way this weekend.

Lucky we didn’t lose 


MAY must go for that after ball hit on Curnow … surely!!

Onto next week for some doozies.

Rich v Geel

Haw v Ess

The showdown 

Syd v Pies

Lions v North 

 

Hawks now up to 123% and climbing.  Might overtake us by the end of the game.

Ross Lyon is a dirty tanker.

A couple of tough games for Essendon and North. The way Sydney is playing at the moment due to injuries Collingwood are a more than a chance. Collingwood are also in more injury trouble after this week. It's hard to know how much effect that will have, they've coped well so far this year with injuries.

The Hawthorn v ESS is the early Saturday game. Shortish break for the Hawks after the Perth travel but it won’t make much difference after watching Freo stink it up.

Sydney can’t seem to win at home and Pies showing plenty of ticker. Simply glad we won so we don’t have to think about other games for another week. 

Would we prefer the Swans or Pies to get up?

I guess the answer to that question is how optimistic are you about winning 3 - 4 of the last 4 games? The Swans winning could put us into the 4 next week if we beat GC and other results go our way.

I’m more on the optimistic side, although we should worry about GC only for now.

This last month of footy is going to be the most exciting ever.

Two games separating 3rd from 11th.

What has happened to Footscray? Are they still watching the 2016 GF...

They deserved it, but since they have shown nothing

Players and Coaches getting paid a lot of cash. 

At least when the Demons win flags we do it in groups of 2-3

That’s hard. Probably better the Pies. If Richmond and Collingwood are 1-2,hopefully mean twin MCG PRELIMS. 

only alternative is West Coast - think I’d prefer Pies at G. 

If we keep winning problem solved

Goal of the year?

It was certainly innovative and spectacular, but technically it was a throw.

Richmond have learnt to put the foot down....

The Big lesson we are yet to master....

Hear here.

It is our next big challenge.  We are capable of matching it with the best, but are not ruthless. 


Is it a throw though ? 

He released the ball... to himself...for the purposes of kicking...which he did.

Had he not connected... it's a throw.

Agree. He wasn't being tackled so I see nothing wrong with it. Unorthodox,  but he disposed the ball... For a goal 

would only be a throw if a) it went to another player, b) it hit the ground, or c) he took it in his hands after 'dropping' the ball, I believe?

as it did neither it's considered part of the kicking motion

greatest ball drop of all time!

Just checked my tips as I haven’t dropped 1 to realize i tipped freo, not sure what I was thinking 

You picked Carlton?

So a player lining up for goal could realistically throw the ball in the air and then kick it, rather than the conventional Ball drop we all know and love?

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
