If Pies lose Dogs get to play saints in Brisbane

How lucky can you get

Their last flag was won on pure utter luck. This could be round 2. Dream run from the AFL and the umpires. 

There’s still 8 minutes left for the Dogs to accidentally put 19 on the field. Hang tight folks.

The only question is at what hurdle in life do we fail

Correct Jim

However, whilst it is painful watching our final chances evaporate , listening to lyon and Healy makes me think that self castration with a pencil would be a preferred option.

No because we are yet again not playing finals under him. In a season where we had virtually no real injury issues bar Gawn missing a few weeks.

What's happened to our game? This is a shocking spectacle, and the umpiring ... it's in crisis

Teams are so regimented they keep kicking backwards and sideways even when behind. Coaches have killed the game.

And the Coleman was won with 42 goals. The game is like watching defensive soccer if a team plays keeping off, or defensive Rugby Union if a team wants to play stoppages.

Its a massive shame. I feel in love watching Ablett, Dunstall, Lockett and Daicos doing extraordinary things 5-6 times a game.

The good thing to come from this is the Pies have to play WC in Perth

Players switched off many a time during games...  we are perennial losers

So if Freo won, Goodwin is safe?

This game is irrelevant to goodwins future

Well 2020 can go and get fracked. Looking forward to an off season of hope building through trade/draft season and preseason and the likely dashing of said hope in 2021.

I wasn’t suggesting as such. In my opinion Goodwin failed this year and I don’t think he can take us any further. But had the Dogs lost he lives to fight another day. If we had a good showing in week one of the finals it may have turned this season from a waste to a step forward.

Sorry but that’s rubbish.

Go and watch the prelim v the Giants again. Showed more heart and determination than I’ve ever seen an MFC side play with.

Our list is a mid-table list at best, nothing to do with the coaching that we're not in the eight. We don't have the cattle, or anywhere near it. Bulldogs are in the finals because they're a better team (= better players, and more of them) - and watching this only confirms it.

Stuff Melbourne how they lost to Sydney beggers belief. It's gonna get harder with Freo, Sydney, Carlton and Gold Coast probably improving. We have to improve dramatically and that's just not with the players we currently have but we have to trade and draft aggressively skill and speed.

If they lose tomorrow night...

Bulldogs would usually be my adopted finals team but they can go and get stuffed. Would rather watch Richmond or West Coast win another one, that’s how much this season has ruined me mentally. Will only be on the dogs if they’re playing Geelong.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
