Week 4 (The one where we win the whole F*cking thing) 

Grand Final will be held at Optus Stadium.

A heavyweight title fight between the best 2 teams of the home and away season.

After a tough 3 quarters where both sides have momentum but can't take advantage, I have the Dees in front at 3/4 time by 4 points. The lead won't blow out to more than 12 points for either side during the game.

Our superior fitness will see us push out to a 24 point lead with 7 minutes to play.

Port will kick a goal to bring it back to 18 points with 6 minutes to go.

A steadier from Ben Brown will take the margin back out to 24 with 4 and a half to play.

The "built for finals" gameplan will see us run the clock down with stoppage after stoppage for a 23 point win.

Could you be more specific, please?

    i have a horrible feeling this thread is going to coax Dr D out of the woodwork to produce yet another factual prediction of doom and gloom. I believe his last one, based on his ability to know more about football than any other numbskull on demonland, had us dropping from 1st to finish 5th and feeling grateful to be in the 8 at all. My skills as a budding Nostrodamus have Dr D predicting we exit the finals in straight sets 😜

     

    Where has DR d gone, he did  boasted so much, was so sure of himself, we won't see him again, not a Melbourne supporter

    Quite apart from an MFC flag, the greatest delight I’d derive from this is seeing Essendon out week 1 and Geelong out in week 2 in straight sets. Kcfu those guys.

    Its hard to see cats go out in straight sets as much as I would enjoy it.

    I think your on the money with Port at home in hot form to take them out. But given their forward line I get the feeling we may see them again.

    But who knows, outside of the Dons all of these teams are dangerously talented so it will be one hell of a finals series.

    Good effort.

    I think your'e on the money here Rev.

    Port are not in Lions class.

    Cats are gone

    Sydney well coached enough  and Longmire will get them to a prelim. But May has Buddys measiure so its over them for them.

    May has Danihers measure, so over for them to in GF.

    FWIW, the TAB betting on the Norm Smith Has six out of the top seven coming from Melbourne or Geelong – I guess the money thinks it will be in Melbourne V Geelong grand final.

    Justin Longmuir is tipping either Geelong or Brisbane as premiers. 

    that means he thinks they'll either both win or both lose this weekend, otherwise it's an impossibility

    Port going in on winning streak will be tough.

    We have done well to win our last four unlike cats and dogs.

    This will be a red hot finals series.

    Lions kicking some high scores will come up against a solid defence but our forwards especially Tmac will have to lift a lot.

    Not too worried about the dons who make up the numbers but all seven others are great teams this year especially the Swans. 

    Gws and dogs we have an equal record.

    Well I'll go one week at a time and I predicted Geelong to win and lost but predicted GWS to win. Tipping Melbourne tonight and Essendon tomorrow.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
