Bulldogs couldn’t have asked for a better situation than to play the Eagles at Subiaco without a crowd, in the rain.

    GWS' recent "form" is a furphy.

    Since beating West Coast in Round 10 they've been thrashed by Brisbane, drew with North and had a win over an inept Carlton, and have now lost to Hawthorn.

    Right now, COVID aside, I'd argue Fremantle are as well placed as anyone to displace Richmond or Sydney from the top 8.

    GWS are such a disappointment. How is Cameron not under intense pressure? Is it because GWS only has 3 supporters?

    Looking at the weather radar that should be the end of the rain Perth.

    They only had a few mms but it seemed to come at the start of the game.

    Could be a better second half from the Eagles

    And none of them understand the game.

    One of my favourite non MFC players is Weitering. McKay gets all the accolades, but Weitering is just as good, if not better.

    I know he signed a contract extension relatively recently, but I'd love him in our back 6 one day.

    Looking for that sweet spot where Carlton win just enough games to retain David Teague.

    it's important he stays to complete the platform for their next era of mediocrity and unfulfilled potential.

    Another massive percentage booster for the Dogs. While I don’t want interstate clubs in the top 4, I’m sick of the Dogs sniffing our [censored].

    It's a pity the West Coast crowd aren't present to witness this. Neck and neck with Essendon as the most entitled supporters in the league.

    Eagles at home in Perth without a crowd is worth 1-2 goals a quarter. With that neutralised, as just now, they’re just not all that. Good luck for the Bulldogs, and have to say I’m jealous at how well their forward line is functioning.

    Just checked the doggies fixture. They've got a dream run home. Only game they could potentially drop is us only.

    The rest are all bottom 8 bar Port Adelaide last round.

    Yep and our ordinary percentage thanks to our inability to put teams away is going to hurt us in the run home. Finish 3rd or 4th and get sent to play Lions at the Gabba would be a complete disaster.

    WCE paid the price for bringing in too many off a long spell.  Naitanui went missing in the last quarter again.  That final quarter was a demolition.

    LOL. Have Carlton organised an open top bus down Lygon St for tomorrow.

    Percentage is irrelevant if we finish first or second.

    But we could well finish 4th or 5th because of it. We have by far the hardest draw of the rest of the top 5 sides. We play Geelong, Port, Dogs and West Coast (away). The rest have maybe one game left against a top 5 side.

    We haven't put teams away at all and I reckon it's going to potentially cost us in the long run.

    I'll cop a bit for this but I honestly think the doggies are currently the best team in the comp.

    I think Brisbane are better. They are more even across the ground. I think Dogs have a suspect backline. But time will tell.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
