Frawley and Scully late outs for the Hawks

Hmm, line up for conspiracy theory tickets here.

    I think our best chance is the filth losing both games. Of course there is percentage to make up but do able. Dogs won't lose their last 2. And of course there is the fact that we will manage to blow it against the druggos.

    Collingwood failing horribly would also be the most satisfying way to get into finals.  Only thing better would be annihilating Essendon and sneaking ahead of the Saints on percentage, ideally by about 0.57%.

    Collingwood are starting to get key players back and we are relying on the Suns beating them.

    Over to you Fremantle.

    Exactly what I was going to say

    The Dogs will catch our percentage with a roughly 50 point win, I believe (they're currently +15, we're currently +62). Depends on how much they score/concede but that's roughly the difference.

    If they pass us on percentage then they could still lose to Fremantle and hold their spot over us if we win.

    It's going to be tight if they belt Hawthorn.

    The only percentage-irrelevant scenario is Collingwood losing both games.

    If we win and WB get done next week then there needs to be 50pts plus next week's combined differential win over Hawks today, so you'd think 70pts or more

    Either way, we need to win and win well next week to maximise our chances

    Hawthorn are a very poor team. Missing goals and targets and dropping easy marks.

    if i didn't jave a vested interest I'd be enjoying watching them

    Complete rabble

    The Bulldogs won’t lose the next two games.

    Fremantle is a markedly better side than Hawthorn though.

    But yes, it's not likely.

    We are hoping for unlikely results because we failed to do the job ourselves.

    Yes, the Dogs can do damage percentage-wise today but overall will need to factor in any damage we can do vs Essendon combined with the Dogs' loss to Fremantle.

    Geez the Dogs are annoying me at the moment.

    Firstly, they play the game of their season against us.

    Secondly, they upset WC which was the game that will come back to haunt us.

    Thirdly, unlike us they look switched on against a bottom side and are likely heading for a 10 goal win.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
