Tomorrow, I will be 100% behind Clarko and the Hawks to pull off the upset of the year. 

And on Monday, I’ll be going for the Suns to beat the Pies.

    Hawks can win for sure, Dogs are hardly world beaters.

    There’s also a terrific game coming up on Friday night when GWS Giants play St Kilda at the Gabba where a win to the Giants will mean that we have the opportunity to overtake the Saints if we can beat the Bombers and make up percentage. It could be a nail biting weekend coming up.

    Hawthorn is tripe though.

    Still, we've seen Adelaide beat GWS and Sydney beat us over the last 10 days, so bad sides can get up to win games.

    IMO the bigger danger for the Dogs is Fremantle.

    Yeah Hawks have been terrible, they got back McEvoy, O'Meara and Burgyoyne for this game which hopefully helps them a bit.

    As you say anything can happen.

    Wishful thinking to expect Hawthorn to beat the Bulldogs who are coming off a very benevolent draw which has seen them stay in Queensland for quite a while and with a recent bye, all of which ensures that they have plenty of petroleum in their tank. They have all the incentive to win today and should do it easily against the Hawks who gave up caring a little while ago.

    Hogan kicked 4 today. Wish we had someone capable of doing that for us!

     

    I hope we get him back to the club.   Weidemans last few weeks after showing improvement is a real worry and Luke Jackson may not be a key forward.

    The ideal scenario would be gold coast somehow beating the pies and then port beating them then the pies miss finals and us and the dogs take the final spots.

    But as much as I like the dogs it would be so good if the hawks could win today.

    Need some Clarko genius today

    Problem is if Hawks beat Dogs we’re in 8 and back in control of our run to finals...

     

    ... and we all know what’ll happen next. ?

    Sometimes i think the lower sides that have been losing and suddenly start showing some form, are harder to defend against

    Crows are on a roll: thrashing Carlton.  That might change but they have a big 5 goal lead!

    Glad we played Crows when we did.

    Thanks for screwing up my 6 game multi Blues. 

    And to think some on here thought the Blues had flown past us

    We've got our own problems but wouldn't supporting Carlton do your head in. You may as well skip the 1st quarter and watch the game from there. In a positive I've got a head to head bet with my Carlton mate. Dees to finish above Carlton an Fritsch to kick more goals than Betts. It's taken the length of the season but I got there.

    Jeez the Crows are really doing a number on Carlton right now. 

  • Quote

    Crows pressure and tackling is elite. If Dees could do that we'd be a way better side. I think we're the 16th ranked pressure side in the comp.

  • Quote

    Quick, fly these Crows back to the Adelaide Oval.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
