Neither Brisbane or Geelong to make the 8? He's delusional.

    Can't see Sydney making it.

    Also could see Geelong drop out this year, ageing stars at the end & the loss of Kelly...

    ...and unconvinced by Port.

    I thought everyone hated Kane Cornes cos he always bags us and doesnt rate us?

    17th to 5th would be an amazing turnaround

    it's actually the opposite if you listen to Kane he does back us he thinks in 2018 we should have won the premiership

    Putting the Dees aside for a second, I like that he's got the guts (unlike Dal Santo who said the 8 wouldn't change) to declare three changes to the final 8 - and there will be three changes to the 8 if you look at prior years.

    One of West Coast, Richmond, Collingwood, GWS or Brisbane will miss finals this year. Lock it in.

    Can’t see that happening but ill take it. 

    I can see it happening just based on the following games played last season by key players -

    Jetta 7
    May 8
    Lever 8
    Melksham 12
    T Mac 15

    Amazing that our 3 gun backmen played a combined 23 games.  Out two most important forwards missed large chunks of the season.    
     

    We are in prime position to rise up and get back into the finals....   god I hope it happens, 2018 was so much fun.  Its all about finals.  Nothing beats playing in September.

    Kelly out is a huge loss for Geelong. With Selwood declining, I have them dropping out. Sydney will finish bottom 8.

    I have to admit I love how Kane goes about it. Yes he can be a pain in the [censored] but he cops it right back. Love him or hate him, at least you will get an honest opinion from him.

    Not sure if it’s just me but I find Dal Santo adds nothing to my footy knowledge and is boring as bat poo.

    Only if clubs start learning how to beat them down at GMHBA stadium.

    Apparently it’s also been a “very, very good week for us” according to ol Kane - https://www.sen.com.au/news/2020/02/27/cornes-hails-melbournes-exceptionally-good-week/

    He’s the equivalent of a shock jock at best, but I found it interesting him saying leadership groups are overrated. It’s not often you hear that coming from someone who has been inside the inner circle at an AFL club.

    I was confident we'd make the top 8 until I read the heading on this thread.  Damn him!

    He has either:

    1) Not watched a single episode of ‘To hell and back’.

    2) Refuses to acknowledge that he jumped the gun with his criticism and has a problem with the title, not the content.

     

    Weirdly though, Cornes in his media role has consistently rated the Dees- I think we were his premiership tip last year and he was all over us in 2018.

    Leadership groups are useless if they're not doing it on the field.

    Not just you. Tries so hard to sound intelligent but just come off as over-analyzing and petty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • PREGAME: Collingwood

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
