For those still playing at home, a GWS loss is a big thing for any sliver of a finals chance we still have.

If we beat them next week we'll be near-guaranteed to finish above them (subject to percentage).

If they then beat St Kilda in the final round, and St Kilda lose to West Coast, all three of us (i.e. St Kilda, GWS and us) will finish on 9 wins.

If our percentage catches St Kilda's and stays in front of GWS', we then play finals (doesn't matter what Collingwood and the Dogs do from there).

Yes that's all far-fetched. About as far-fetched as GWS losing to Adelaide.

perhaps more likely is the dogs to lose to Freo in the last round - if we win our 2 last games we'll get in 8th assuming no big jumps in %

    This is where I am at too, I think.

    Now I am just going to get hopes built up again, for no logical reason 

    And I'm the big [censored] that just bought 3 tickets to Saturdays game now.... Completely contradicting my post about not watching this team while goody is in charge...

    How Leon Cameron got a 2 year extension I'll never know.

    He is driving the Ferrari like its a '96 Hyundai hatchback. Aside from last year, they have been poor given they have the most talent in the comp

    I agree DubDee, I've always thought he has massively underperformed for the list he had.

    Gws are gone. So where is their media pile on about softness , everything on the line failure etc. 

    Won't happen. 

    Dees knock them off next week will be part redemption for me.

    He is a crap coach always has been.  A monkey could have taken that team to the top 4.   Not winning a flag is a huge fail.

    Freo are no easy beats.  They are almost unbeatable in Cairns  ?

    I just had a full swing of mood. The optimism is back, at least until Saturday. We probably win on Saturday and then put in a stinker against the Dons, but there’s still a chance. Thanks Croweaters

    Easy is how you would have described gws vs crows 2 hours ago.

     Our big hope is freo knocking off dogs. They have A graders and an impressive young coach in Longmuir

    I also wouldn't dismiss the Hawks either... they are due for a win. Had a shocking loss to Adelaide, but nearly beat Saints, Essendon, and Port. Their last win was in Round 9 against Carlton. Could be another upset looming!

    Supporting this club requires a total lack of logic.

    I am reading a lot of delusional nonsense on this thread. We do not deserve to play finals and nor are we a chance. Don't rely on others to do the dirty washing.

    Sydney are a young developing team.  I trust them.  They've lost plenty of games, but they're honest.  You know what you're going to get (virtually) every week.

    I respect them and their coach.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
