And yet we were only 2 goals down early in the last 

Not saying we will win by 10 goals tonight, but the wrist slashing and hyperbole on Land of late is both ridiculous and hilarious at the same time. Some posters need a big injection of positivity up their clacker. Life is too short to expect the worst every time.

 

Tigers by 90 points.

 

Luv it Mr. Shadow

$$$$$$ probably

Well that hasn't even been close to being an issue with the crowds we have attracted over the last few seasons.

No doubt tonight will be a little bit down on previous years, but it's not as if only 40,000 are turning up.  I'd say we will still get around 70,000.

I reckon I'll check the VLine App to see what time the next train leaves about 5 minutes into the 3rd.

    I never thought I'd have to go back to the bad days where I would go to the footy and it's a good day if we lose under 10 goals. But tonight I go to this game knowing we won't win. Last year we got beaten by 46 points in the same game.

    Anyway the good thing is get the game over tonight the weekend is free and by then everyone would have moved on. 

    But I am interested to see if Goody does anything different tonight. also would love to see some players get back into form who have been down.

    Surely McDonald plays on Lynch?

    thank god number 9 is out

     great pity Nev is out

    to avoid an epic flogging we’re going to need everything to go right

    tigers by 86


    I spoke somewhere about being surprised at our selections .

    Smith in instead of Keilty  surprises me again.

    Not a place for a fist gamer tonight. Might ruin his career b4 he even starts. Love to see him get a decent go this year tho.

    Would need  a miracle to win tonight.    I give us  a 2% chance.

    Might be our best win ever if we can pull it off.  Cant believe the Tigers are paying 1.40 in the betting.   Easiest money anyone will ever make.

     

    My most fervent wish.....that we simply don't embarrass ourselves.....any further.

    Too much ??

    It will be a blood bath. 

    Probably not the right game for terms like "blood bath" mate

    Me too WJ, and a similar result in a sporting sense will unfold tonight.

    Old Dee, you were responding to WJ's Gallipoli remembrance. Any chance the "similar result" you are expecting was meant from the perspective of the Axis powers?

    it's quite relaxing going into a game with zero expectations. 

    It's one of the advantages of being a Dees supporter for over 50 years. I don't get anywhere near as stressed about football matches as every non-Melbourne supporter I know (other than St Kilda supporters who are equally sanguine).

    Have we ever lost a game on a Wednesday?

    I was expecting a similar result to the Anzacs brave but in the end beaten badly.

    Think the dees might surprise us all tonight... not saying that means our season will turn around (though I hope it does), but I am more confident about tonight than I was about St Kilda. This is the type of game the Melbourne of old would win. 


    I think that I might take a sick day from being a MFC fan for tonight. I am down with a bad case of Demon apathy and there is a significant possibility I will become worse watching the game.

    Richmond with no Cotchin or Rance and Harmes on Dusty.

    We have to be very hard at it for four quarters as the tigers do not stop .

    I think the players are hurting and will give it everything tonight.

    Can we connect with our forwards and can we defend well enough?

    Time will tell, but I’m hoping like hell.

    You just need some Vitamin AnB and to do your stretch exercises. Not sure what you should do with Marty Hore, though.

    I know right. Puts bank term deposit interest rates to shame.

    Should really be Richmond $1.10.

    Edited by Bring-Back-Powell

    Any chance Richmond might be a bit knackered from Saturday night and won' have the energy to go on a 16 goal second half avalanche?If that's the case we must stay close with them at half time if we're any chance of a respectable result.

    Yes I know we alos played on Saturday, but we only ran one way so should have plenty in the tank...

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
