POST MATCH DISCUSSION - Round 20

[SFebes 4,884]

They should just put the padlock on the gates at GC, let the kids go back to their home state to their families. 

[Gator 17,628]

Sydney are rubbish.  If we can't beat them then we don't deserve to play finals.

My only issue with today was our kicking inside 50.  It's still poor.

[DemonOX 8,817]

Huge man crush on Brayshaw. 

Thought he was really good today and so far this season. 

[Deeoldfart 8,083]

A strong win against weak opposition today.  Sing the song:  enjoy the win:  recover well;  review the game;  and move on quickly to prepare for next Sunday arvo at the 'G".  The demands increase every week from now on boys.  Go Demons.

If we beat the Swans AND some other results happen next week are we mathematically LOCKED IN?

They are nothing special Bbo we can beat them if we kick a little straighter. We seriously missed some sitters. 

Agreed on both od !!

[SFebes 4,884]

Gaff will be out for rest of the season for that, shocking thug hit on Brayshaw and Bugg like. Knocked his teeth out

Anyone who wants Gaff at Melbourne next to Gus Brayshaw needs to think again.

If we beat the Swans, the Hawks beat Geelong and the Dogs beat the Kangas, we will be locked in to the finals after next round.

Edit -  unless we lose our last two games by 10+ goals and Geelong win their last two by 10+.

The AFL has a bit of a problem on its hands with this GCFC experiment.

1 beat Swans - go to 52 points. 

2. Hawthorn beat Geelong. Cats stay on 44

3. Footscray beat North. Kangas stay on 44. 

 

Then - either one of them must win both last 2 games AND makeup 12.5 % if we lost last two and surrendered 12.5%. 

Go Dees

Hawks

Dogs 

[SFebes 4,884]

Gaff will be out for Dees game I can guarantee that, so that’s a positive. 

[Sir Why You Little 37,241]

Gaff should be gone for the year for that punch

About 5-10mins ago sue, so about 15min mark of 3rd. You’ll see a replay soon enough anyway

Great work, got the job done. Now the real work starts.

Shame about Smith, was looking promising today, just needs to tidy up his decision making/disposal. Hopefully it’s a confidence thing.

Clayton Oliver is that good! 

Would say it was a Dusty/Dangerfield display... but it was a Clayton Oliver display.

Smashed their confidence in the 1st and just preserved ourselves for next week and beyond.

Joel Smith the only blemish. Hope the lad is ok, doesn't look good tho.???

Great game and always, it is fantastic to have a win - and one so convincing as this game against the Suns. However, we must all wish Joel a complete, speedy recovery from a 'dangerous tackle' slinging him to the ground. His game, today, was the best he has played for the MFC with some great intercepts and running pick-ups, good disposals and coverage of his opponents. Well done - best wishes with the recovery.
