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: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    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?
