    Picking from a what is good for MFC viewpoint there are several interesting matches.

    If Adelaide could bet the Bombers that would be fantastic.

    As for the others depends if you are an optimist or a pessimist. Believing us to be clearly top 4 material ?I'm going for

    GWS

    North

    Port

    Dockers

    Eagles

    Bulldogs

    Hawks and Swans to draw

    And Storm to thrash the Broncos !!

    Not fussed who wins tonight. Don't mind either team. 

    I'd love to see Adelaide get up and beat the bummers. That would be fantastic.

    Should actually be a pretty watchable game tonight. Both teams happy to play with an offensive mindset so hopefully we see a few goals kicked.

    Would prefer a Suns win tonight.  Think it helps us more, as they will likely run out of steam in the seasons 2nd half anyway.    Dogs one of our main competitors for a spot in the 8.

    really, dogs should be a top 6 side

    they've disappointed since the surprise premiership

    sigh...i'd love a surprise premiership...

    Half Time and neither side has impressed at this point in time. 

    The other thing that’s not impressing is the rain and the predictions that it’s going to hang around the Coast for the next few days and affect our game on Sunday.

     It should also impact our team selection and I’m thinking Nathan Jones is firming for a return. T. Mac also still a chance as well.

    Weightman - 0 posies into the third.  Runs around packs like a seagull looking for a chip.

    Post that in the Weightman thread!

    Pickett all day, every day.

    I’ve really enjoyed the Suns v Dogs game. 
    English has gone from a bag full of chocolates to the boiled lollies this week. 
    I really enjoy seeing Libba back to his best, tough little nugget and just keeps bobbing up for stats and goals. 

    The ground is going to struggle with the weather on the way.

    Wow, just checked.  31 hit outs to 8.  English getting a lesson

    I'm sorry but I simply don't rate the doggies.

    They've got a gun midfield with a forward line that only works on some weeks.  When it's off they can't score at all.  Granted, the weather didn't help later in the game, but at they can be totally impotent inside 50.

    Also, anyone feel ill when Billy Gowers marked the ball with about 30 seconds left and then turned it over with a shocker of a kick.  I swear he could have been wearing a Melbourne jumper when he did that.

    100%. He had players everywhere or he could have chewed up time. Instead he did his Angus Brayshaw impersonation and shanked one into the corridor and hit the GC on the [censored]

    I'm getting really really really REALLY tired of the commentators fawning over Rankine!!  Even when he kicked behinds in the last, they were making it seem like it was part of a cunning plan! (did love his mark though)

    Me too! He's kicked 6.9 for the year and has burnt some team mates

    I think the novelty will wear off pretty quickly with him. He can have all the tricks in the world, but eventually he will have to tow the line for the team and he will be watching from the stands

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
