    The Bombers are useless, the only way we’ll lose this is if Essendon win. 

    Margin please Ethan

    This reminds me of a similar story that had a happy ending OX. In 2005 on the last day of the season Celtic just had to win at Motherwell to win the title. We (Rangers) were also playing away against Hibernian in the capital. Celtic were a goal up with just a few minutes to go and we were also a goal up in Edinburgh. Enter stage left a certain Scott McDonald. He not only scored an equaliser but also the winner, deep into injury time. 

    The day is known as Helicopter Sunday as the chopper that was on it's way with the SPL trophy down to Lanarkshire had to change course mid flight and head east to Edinburgh instead. What makes the day so perfect is that Scott McDonald is an Australian international footballer and he son of a Celtic daft scottish dad that emigrated here.

    That’s prob a once in a life time opportunity and you had the good ending u lucki bugger.

    Hopefully the highlights today will include Melksham and Brown kicking a bag against their old Club and Hibberd, May and Lever stopping every entry into our back half! ?

    God hasn’t melksham had a free ride this season. FMD he has been in putrid form all season and never dropped but promoted to captain temporarily.
    Another awesome  decision by Goodwin.

    I hope the bummers give their transitional coach the same farewell game as we did to Paul Roos.

    It would be so Melbourne to lose this.  So Melbourne in fact that I don't think anyone here would be surprised.

    I'll be more surprised if we win, and even win well.

    Let's see if we can flip the script for a change.

    For what it's worth, I can't see the Dogs losing tomorrow, so today's outcome is almost a moot point, but it would be nice to be in the game for at least 24 hours longer.

    Hope the boys have been on the phone to Hogan and Angus' brother to fire them up a bit.

    If we win today, Freo can get it done.  They have have played good footy this year and are getting better. If we win Dogs will free more pressure to win and that "may" lead to more errors etc.  Anyway, we need tow in today first before thats become relevant.

    Yeah I can see us dogging it today but I can also see us getting it done because it's out of our hands now. Maybe it will be a draw 

    Been saying this for a while now....someone for us us going to kick a bag.

    Weid, Pickett or Fritta?

    Possibly Trac.

    Look we stuffed our final chances up when we lost those games earlier in the season and against freo and sydney but we do need to finish the season on a winning note even if the dogs knock us out tomorrow. 

    Beating essendon today and sending them off with a miserable loss would be awesome. Just to make the essenscum supporters be put through more misery.

    We should win today and win well. Well I hope so anyway. Losing the final game to them would leave a bad taste.

    Woke up in a great mood. Hoping to enjoy one last high-scoring win for the season and then maybe I can move on from my current coronavirus interrupted life. Probably won't watch tomorrow and just catch up with the news on Monday. If the Dogs win I'm unlikely to watch any finals for the first time in my life. Just put this [censored] season behind me and never think of it again. Go Dees!

    Not sure why people care. We got taught a football lesson by Fremantle and Sydney. We don't deserve to play finals. And I'm not all that motivated to play finals only for our lack of structure and defensive pressure to rear its ugly head again.

    No more excuses for Weideman. After showing improvement hes done nothing the last 3 weeks.

    Time for Sam to grow up and be a man and take the game by the balls today.  Youre 23 Sam not 18!

    One game at a time Skuit  it might turn out to be a good weekend The pressure will be on the Dogs with a win today. 

    Freo is a chance IMO. Ã—

    Agree on that one. His final against geelong we all thought he has broken though and that will set himself up now but he does need to establish himself more and take those marks.

    And don't even try and deny it.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
