It is entirely 100% in our hands as to where we finish - even second, with double chance and home finals is possible .... in fact WILL happen if we win all our games.

So ...no excuses.

Every season is in our hands, we should win 22 each year?

i sense you are more of an optimist than me. We have two of the toughest games possible coming up and off our form this year we won’t win them. So we need to win the next two and squeeze on in 13.

    Let’s hope it doesn’t kick them into gear for next week. Sick of swans hawks cats!

    If we want to win a flag this year, the Sydney win was the perfect result for us.
    If we just want to Bradbury our way to an extra footy game this year, well then bad luck.

    Bradbury plan is flawed because it's in our hands anyway. We need to win the two games. Win then and we're home. Our percentage takes care of the rest. We can't Bradbury it through.

    What a great day. Bummers lose and the pies lose both by tiny margins. 

    Ok melbourne team no pressure but if you can handle it tomorrow we can be in 3rd spot. 

    Wow AFL I don't think we need zones and 6 on 6 and all that crap. This round has been great. Footy will fix itself.

    Top 4 is well and truly open now. 

    Tell you what if we can win this week & next our last two rounds will be epic games. Bigger than 8 point games if that's even possible

    Bradbury didn't fall over, which is what we'd be doing if we were to lose all our games.

    Win 1 v Gold Coast and find 1 more somewhere (Sydney next week…equivalent to keeping out skates on the ice), and we're in barring some ridiculous set of mathematical permutations. That's the Bradbury route in my mind.

    Happy to have the swans find some form, much better to play some tough games heading into the finals, test ourselves, win all (or all but 1) and we will have a good ladder position and more importantly a lot of confidence going into the finals

    Think it’s 70 years since Melbourne played Tigers in a final. Maybe Bluey Truscott’s last game.

    I thought Buddy heroics aside Sydney were still pretty bad, their midfield is ordinary at the moment

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
