An interesting take on it. 

I think our guns will beat their guns . That is too say a cracking game awaits. Still think it's us by 18 but it will be a topsy turvy affair. 

West Coast wouldn't want to suffer another player going down early....that'd be a damn shame ?

Maybe though if it's Kaos v Control footy the score will be 99 to 86 ..or something lol

Yep...Eagles to miss by 'that much ' ;)

    Beat them there in 2017.  Beat them there 5 weeks ago.

    We will beat them there on Saturday.

    goal kicking and forward delivery will determine it in the end methinks.

    Midfields will make it tough and it will be who takes the chances.

    WCE probably ahead of us in raw scoring power

    AFL.com.au has picked us by 7 points.

    Should be a really interesting game. We need to win the midfield well, like last time. If we do that, we should win. If the midfield battle is even, things could get uncomfortable.

    Spot on RD. JK is a gun (a completely overused word but justified in this case IMHO) and Meth Coke have probably finished top two and not outside the eight due to him. He's under-appreciated on the East Coast IMHO. All this is a long way of saying that if they get it in the middle and can move it quickly in the JK direction - we've got real problems. I love Frosty and Oscar, but they are no match for Kennedy. Therefore we need to cut it off at the source. Brayshaw needs to have a big day IMHO. He just might be the key. If he gets it 30 times inside the square, we win. He's the closest we have to a 'kill you' player (that is a guy who every time he gets it he kills you - aka Martin, Cyril, Pendles, Nathan Buckley and Voss). 

    Please Angus . . . play the game of your life Son.

    FWIW . . . Robbie Flower was probably our last 'kill you' player.

    • 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.
