IF WE LOSE TO THE CROWS, THEN...

If we lose, then

1- Goodwin should resign and acknowledge he is not capable of leading Dees to glory 

2- Players will be advised to stop drinking their own bath water 

3- media will enjoy the week and make Melbourne FC the laughing stock

4- Dees supporters will have another period of shame and despair

5- the holiday camp in Maroochydore will be under extreme review 

 

If we win, then...  (According to the media and special commentators) it’s because the Crows are hopeless and it proves nothing until we beat a good team.

    If we lose this then I seriously won’t watch another MFC game until the next round.

    I reckon we will lose this game.

    The best we could realistically expect is an unsatisfying 2 goal win after going missing in the second half again.

    And Norf will beat us easily next week while smashing us physically.

     

    If we lose to the Crows.......I wont be surprised in the slightest.

    Nah, upon reflection I think I’ll be done. 
    It’s already been too exhausting this year and I won’t let the misery get to me. 
    Change channel.

    I can very easily see us losing this game. Crows home crowd, they’ve made 8 changes and brought in a few debuts who some of the fans have been screaming for. 

    The crows will smell blood and they have just as big of a point to prove.

    No matter how many upgrades Demonland has had it will crash.

    And Goodwin may as well quit.

    Agree. Goodwin cannot continue if we lose this. It’s a “186 point loss “ no matter how big the scenario of a loss.

    Yep this game has massive ramifications, while I don’t think he would quit I would see it as the end of the road for Goodwin and it would be just about when he gets sacked rather than will he.

    So we got about another ten games or so to go and we only have to win two more to improve on last year. Look on the bright side...

    Why do i continue to think of our game against the drug cheats when they had lost a majority of their list to suspension and had not looked like winning a match all season?

    The more I think about this game the more I can’t work out how we actually win it. Adelaide are horrible this year but we know who their one win will be against for the season don’t we!

    Decided not to watch this one.  Football life sucked out of me by a club who never can be trusted.  They will lose and club back in crisis again looking for a new coach.

    If we lose, this board will go bananas.

    If we win, even by 100 points, this board will shrug its shoulders, dismiss it as an irrelevant performance, and expect us to lose to North.

    I cant decide if this is a no-win game or a no-lose game.....

    No-Win scenario:

    If we lose.... well that speaks for itself.

    If we win..... that should be expected so its not really a win (unless its by a gigantic margin).

     

    No-lose scenario:

    We lose...... more ammunition to use against the club and its coach. Can feel vindicated for past criticism of same.

    We Win...... Also speaks for itself. 4 Points and we are still in the race for finals.

     

    I think no matter what happens i will still be left feeling flat. Its what the club does well.

    Dear Melbourne Football Club,

    If you lose this week I will hide in my house. No visitors. No going out for a coffee. No shopping. Will live on my supplies.

     Greetings from Lockdown City,

    Wish you were here.

    P.S. Remember us?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      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?
