When you want other teams to win for us they generally lose. Yes I know plenty on here will post we should worry about ourselves and win our own games.

If they do, they havent followed this club for long.

    Round about now I would have a hammy if I were a bombers player. You could relax and enjoy the weather on the gold coast for the next couple of weeks.

    Sounds nice ?

    Perhaps throw in day spa and a surf....not to mention a kebab or two

    I don’t know how Woosha keeps smiling. The bomber have been pathetic for 2 months. No effort. Two wins from 10 games. A 12 goal loss  

    They are even worse than us. There I said it!

    Agree with most of that, but not convinced on Kossi yet. Might be too early to tell. Interesting that only one of them is a forward and only a part time one at that. 

    Kossie needs experience, to learn how to play in the AFL.

    Woosha is smiling because everyone knows he is not coaching them, Rutten is.

    So mathematically let alone probability wise that's the end of the Bomber's season.

    Assuming our final round is a dead rubber who would you pick ?

    You just know we'll set ourselves up so win v EFC = finals, loss v EFC = miss out, and we'll be favourites to win. In which case the outcome is a foregone conclusion.

    You young people have no concept of commitment or self discipline.

    our percentage is higher and they are one round ahead.

    The equation hasn't changed...need to win ten games which means we need to win the next three

    PS a loss by the Eagles makes it almost certain that we would play them in Perth if we made the eight

    On reflection Maz I might have a suspect damaged back that made it impossible to travel. Who the hell would want to come back here.

    come on Eagles, please help us as we cant get the job done ourselves.

    It seems that literally every result is going against us since our shocking loss to Sydney. Getting what we deserve.

    The dogs winning absolutely ends any hope of us making the finals  with 9 wins.

    Ffs that's a point

    I hope the Dogs win.  

    We're crap, but if we're good enough we can still make up the numbers in finals.  There are rubbish teams that play finals every year.

    And no, you could not possibly overturn that goal to Bontempelli.

    Good win doggies, if the Dees are good enough, we’ll make it to the 8, but as we all know, we are not.

    Yep, every result went against us this week.

    I reckon Dogs will take St Kilda’s spot in the finals.

    Dogs have a laughable last 2 games while St Kilda have GWS and West Coast.

    A neutral would prefer a WCE v WB 5v8. It will be close to embarrassing to knock off Freo & Ess and claim a final against the Eagles.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.

    • NON-MFC: Round 15

      As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.
