The Scott brothers seem to get a lot of luck for two blokes that deserve zero of it.

Rayner had been super and thenshanked the last shot to win the game.

Surely the runner would have yelled out waste the 30 and take a shot with a bit of maturity. 


both of these games are gonna make things difficult but for once lets take our destiny into our own hands and stop worrying about the results of other teams. 

Come on Dees!

North's percentage could worry us with their generous run home. 

Having a look at the ladder predictor if we win our next 2 games we should be safe

Thank god the Hawks held on. Im sorry but essenscum have stkilda next week and I do not want them to have any chance of making finals. Plus im sick of people talking them up and mr tird saying they can win the premiership 

Geelong hawthorn play each other each week so that could sort things out. 

Anyway Adelaide and Sydney have to win. Tomorrow we need to win most importantly but also boost our percentage 

 

My god Brissy really should have won that. What Rayner was thinking I’ll never know. Young kid, he’ll learn volumes from that. 

Great young side but they really lacked that composure in the end.

And if he was a Melbourne player - he really should go back and learn his 'craft' in the vfl and have him ready for 2019 ?

could not agree more mate! haha :)

It’s infuriating watching a guy turn around to kick round the body on a 45 degree angle. Not once does it ever fill me with confidence.

He wouldn’t have a chance to go back to VFL, he would’ve been delisted by now

Essendon don't deserve to be in the 8, so it was justice served. Hawthorn on the other hand looked out of place below us on the ladder all season. I"d definitely back us to get back at them, 6 v 7 would be a fitting place to do it.

Terrible results for us so far

Geelong lost and will be outside the 8 with the hawks to come and the form team of the comp in bombers are out of the running! Lions getting up would have been perfect but hardly terrible results

You have to wonder if he compares 20 attempts with each method at practice and uses the result to decide which way to do it in a game.  

Gee, football is in terible condition.

Starting to think the bruhaha about 'spectacle of the game' and 'need to change what is happening on the ground' was just a smokescreen to cover the fact that all the real problems in the game at the moment have their source either at HQ or the Broadcasters.

Meanwhile, that's three games in a row with see-saw surges of scoring and decided by less than a goal. I would guess that the actual fans are feeling pretty 'engaged with the content' at this point.

Possibly true. I’d rather him take all his attempts practicing the drop punt on that angle but that’s just the purist in me talking.

Funny how it’s seen a massive turnaround since coaches met for dinner at Gil the shills house


Jeez, I'd have almost parted with a knacker to have seen Brisbane win that game and wipe the grin of that smug little [censored] Scott's face!!!

Anyway I've tipped the Ravens.

After all that, anyone want to modify their view of best result for us in C'wood v Sydney?

(you can tell I'm confused)

I’d rather Collingwood win. With their injury list they won’t go far in finals. Gives us breathing space on swans for next week?

Both have positives and negatives. It's pretty much impossible to gauge what result is better because we can't know how the next 3 rounds will go. 

For all we know, Brisbane blowing that win was the win that gets Norf to 14 wins and nullifies our superior percentage in the final round.

I don't really want to play the Swans next week coming off 3 losses. If they win today it releases the pressure valve on them and lowers their stakes for the match against us. Would also be a sign that Collingwood's injury list is starting to take its toll.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
