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. ?

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

My MFCSS does not compute.

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.

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

Amazing the drop off, they can barely hit a target.

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

Wouldn't you love to be a senior coach.

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).

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.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
