Dont write off the Suns tomorrow night, give them a much bigger chance than the Dorks today.

 

 

Don’t think so. They’ve been on the decline throughout the second half of the season. Their only decent game was against North who are the worst performed team by far in that period.

    What a [censored] up !!!

    [censored] we only to beat one of Freo Swans !!

    Another lost opportunity!

    Exactly. Whether we were complacent or lazy or exhausted is not clear but surely we should have beaten  one of Freo or Swans   
     

    Not enough passion or desire?

    Club has always scrambled to make finals since 87 or missing out on double chances by dropping games against bottom teams. I’d be surprised if we get in this year but want be surprised if we lose to Essendon either

    Could do. But hopefully it haunts the dogs too. Tough place to play and Freo are used to the conditions

    That'll be mighty stressful, we'd need the Giants to pull saints pctge down by several % so we can leapfrog them, while not themselves lifting their own pctge by the 6% to overtake us. Imagine beating dons by a point, our % would fall fractionally - we really need a big win to maximise our chances. Perilous stuff!

    Come on Weid, time for your break-out 7-goal haul.

    Will be tiiiiiggghht!

    gws win by any score on Friday. Then we know how much we need to win by the next day. 

    not sure my nerves could take it!

    The dogs should have won that by 70 points, could come back to haunt them. They had the hawks on toast and just needed to maintain the pressure. 

    Freo are playing like a top 8 team at the moment.

    The thing is that this is 2020 and most teams have been up and down like a yo yo. You can’t bank on the Dockers or anyone else to save your skin.

    Other than a joke from the moron commentators about him being a tough bloke?

    Nothing as far as I am aware

    Would be ironic (poetic, tragic..?) if Hogan was to lift the Demons into a second finals series (that he wouldn’t be partaking in) in three years, next Friday...

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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.
