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 ?

    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: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
