If West Coast beats Carlton tomorrow and the Dogs beat Fremantle, there will be a two-game gap between 8th (either West Coast or Richmond depending on percentage) and 9th (Essendon), although GWS has a game in hand.

Also if West Coast beats Carlton tomorrow Carlton should sack David Teague. There is no reasonable excuse for Carlton to lose to the side West Coast are fielding tomorrow.

    Gosh I checked the score and saw the bombers kicked the 4 in a row to be 3 points up and I thought they will go on with it, then I saw the last minute and thought the wrong score had been put up. The tigs just went bang. McGrath is a big loss to the bombers.

    He’s an absolute gun of a footballer and spoke well in his speech.

    there's a bit of the titchell / smitchell about him tho - lots and lots of possessions but how damaging is he with the ball in hand?

    that said, would happily have him on our list but he should be priority #1 for the peptides to sign up

    How will the football journalists of Melbourne account for this topsy-turvy result? I was told the Bomber wunderkinds were now invincible.

    Clearly they will just have to talk about Collingwood more.

    Watching with "bated breath" the Channel 9 footy show today as to what will be discussed about Friday night's game. Last week a fat zero with tubby saying at the end of the program that they had already discussed Melbourne v Bulldogs earlier. Absolute lie and he was called out on it during the week.

    As to the commentators saying during the week that Essendon were the best team currently (oh FFS) give me a break. Now explain last nights result you muppets. Looking at you Taylor &  Brayshaw. How do you keep your gig at 7.

    Today’s The Age headline.
    “Tigers reinforce premiership credentials against valiant Bombers“.

    and this.. “The Tigers have now won successive matches for the first time since round two and 11 straight against the Bombers, erasing any doubts about their premiership credentials in a season where they have struggled to find a groove.”

    Doesn’t take much for the media Richmond bandwagon to revive. Beat fickle Adelaide and callow Essendon and they are favourites again. And this is called journalism.

    Serious analysis required of the relative benefits to the MFC of a Bulldogs loss/win today against Freo.

    On balance (but only just) I tend towards the wingman theory where it is safer having the Dogs play interference against Brisbane in the top two stakes.

    For those who think we will remain ladder leaders having Brisbane second when commencing the finals series is not a bad outcome perhaps

    So enjoyable being on top of the ladder on merit but the permutations are such unchartered waters for me at least.

    Just watching the show now and we have been given a very good rundown of the game as well as a Tom McDonald interview. Neil Mitchell must have got thru to Tony Jones. Haha

    Can we say go freo?

    We can. Although I've rarely seen a team with such ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

    Days like today is when you miss the early Sunday game. The price on West Coast today is tempting even with half a side.

    Watched that last quarter goal-fest in the west from Essendon and Richmond where just about every i50 resulted in a goal. 

    That's just not going to happen against us.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
