A quick ladder predictor says yes. We can make it with 12 wins as long as Sydney and Geelong only win 1 (Sydney can win 2 if you include the game against us).

Whilst that would be awesome Geelong will not lose to either Fremantle or Gold Coast so you wasted precious bandwidth on that predictor. ?

    West Coast are looking like not much chop so far without their key players Gaff Kennedy and NicNat. We're a massive chance over there next week.

    Also they don't have there home ground or the umps on there side.

    If Port win today and we win the last 3 games, we will finish 2nd guaranteed.

    The word "guaranteed" does not exist in a world where MFCSS already exists.

    Sure it does; it's in the definition.

    MFCSS n.,  "Whatever can go wrong for the Melbourne Football Club, will go wrong (guaranteed)."

    My god could you imagine if thats how the ladder ended up r23. Collingwood v melbourne at the mcg week 1. Im not sure I could handle that week. 

    I can't see port falling out. 

    On another note Id love to see Richmond v hawthorn in a final not the gf obviously but just to see how the hawks match up against them again. 

     

    Its 2 weeks actually, with the break after the H&A.....that would be a hard 2 weeks

    I'm loving the choice of a defensive forward tag on McGovern from Ken Hinkley. We should do likewise with a Pedersen or even a Fritch (someone with good marking power but also good running endurance).

    Injury watch: Lycett and Vardey not doing great.

    Max Gawn would be licking his lips.

    Oh man! Who wouldn't want to go flying all over the place all the time!

    "Good morning passengers. This is your purser speaking. We will be leaving about 25 minutes after our scheduled time, because, flying. Our flight will take fifty minutes and twenty years. You can work out the joke yourselves. Your in flight meal will be a choice between soggy beef wellington and soggy noodles. We will be giving out free soft drinks but if you want half a glass of stale cask wine, we will be happy to rip you off on that. Just ask your nearby flight attendant. We will be showing a movie, Harry Potter and the Missed Finals By A Percentage Of Point Two Percent. Also we will be delighted to [censored] watches, perfumes, and other sh*t to grift a few bucks, or just to annoy you. Whichever comes first."

    Sounds like heaven!

    At this stage of the weekend, we are one win and 15% ahead of Geelong.  Hopefully after tomorrow, we are two wins and a bit more % ahead of them.  Nice!  On the other hand, we must win tomorrow to maintain a % buffer over Hawthorn, and our other potential rivals.

    Well I suppose he can still get home tonight. Just a days work. But it's good he has done that. Can get more being there live than seeing it off the tv. Plus it's only an hours flight away.

    Yeah exactly right, it’s all quite possible but good to see he’s investing his time wisely.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
