I will take a Carlton win any day. If we can not protect our place in the eight from here we just not deserve to be in it. Also helps to jump to 6th or 7th. 

Carn the Blue-baggers...

How good was Fevola, loved seeing him start that 1QT brawl... Gold

    Blues have choked the 2nd Half very badly. 
    it is an open game and they have kicked 7 goals

    Clear free kick to Betts that would have put the Blues in front and then 3 quick goals to the Pies and game over.

    Both teams were substandard

    Casboult particularly disappointing

    Does a Collingwood win help or hurt us, i know we should take our destiny into our own hands but in terms of the ladder, is this good for us?

    Hurts us, basically guarantees pies a spot in the 8 if they win 1 more. One less spot up for grabs by those fighting to get in

    Just to add Expect in 2 weeks, dees gws and saints will all be on 9 wins with only % separating us. With one sitting 9th

    Carlton are so soft. 4 points in a second half against their fierce rivals. Now they're out of finals contention the AFL can move them out of the RACV Noosa Resort and into the local caravan park to finish the season.

    So it's a blunder now?  Talk about manufacturing a story from sweet FA.

    Hopefully Carlton can knock over GWS next week but I doubt it.

    Wow blues goalless in the second half against their bitter rivals. They’re done, now watch the Carltank come out.

    If it's not West Coast in Perth it is Richmond or Geelong or less likely Port or Brisbane at their home grounds.

    Finishing 8th would be a nightmare whichever way you look at it.

    ..... but better than finishing 9th, which gives zero chance of advancing at all ?

    Must say I like the jaguar symbol on the back of our jumper. Most of the car logos are rather nondescript.

    Took me years to work out who SEW were on the back of the hawks jumper.

    Yeah, the truth doesn't sound so sensationalist...

    IMO - it helps in that in now knocks Blues out of finals race, and Collingwood are still catchable by Dees . They were less than impressive today and they have a tough draw, one less game and I would rather meet them if we make finals than Blues.

    One less contender. I think the Saints could also well be worried with their run home.

    Dees have to win nevertheless.

    Dees will be well into the 8 in your scenario, as if all teams win the next two matches then % rankings should probably staty the same with GWS in 9th spot. A 10% gap can't be made up in low scoring and shorter games .  Apart from us, no 60 point blowouts to worry about.

    Saints may well win but only a 2% gap between them and Dees which could be made up and put the saints lowre than us.

    In additon, as a possible early Christmas bonus,  if the Lions beat the Pies next week, as I suspect, then Pies next have a bye and could drop out of thge 8 altogether by end of next two rounds.

    Yes but Blues would have been on our tail as well.

    Best result was a Blues win. This outcome 2nd best.

    • 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.
