    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!

    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.

    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

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      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.
