(If) we win next week against Brisbane what is our preferred outcome for the QF?

1.) Finish 2nd and play Sydney at the MCG

2.) Finish 3rd and play Sydney at the SCG

3.) Finish 3rd and play Collingwood at the MCG

I for one think a 3rd place finish playing against Sydney at the SCG is actually the best option. We play really well away from home and I think the hostile environment will be a good intro to our finals series and it will give extra motivation.

I don’t think any of these are relevant for us. We will lose against the lions and finish 5th or 6th.

    I'm more confident against Brisbane than I have been against any team going back to the Bulldogs game. Could not visibly see us beating Collingwood or Carlton, had bad vibes against the Dogs and uncertainties about Freo. If we push Brisbane around a bit we win. I question their ability to win under genuine finals pressure.

    Maybe GWS win in Canberra, and maybe Coll lose to Carl…

    We’d be 4th…

    If we lose to Brissy then we will play either carlton or the dogs. I would rather the dogs so lets just ensure we win and get double chance.

    Now that the Pies losing to the blues seems a real possibility there are new realistic outcome. 
    we lose, pies lose. Finish 5th and play the blues. Not a bad outcome. 

    can’t see us making % up on the Swans so it’s either

    Away to Swans PL

    Tigers or Blues at the G   EF

    anything else??

    I can understand that given our last few encounters with them. Sooner or later they’ll get one back. We are playing poor, they aren’t that much better. On the eve of Finals at their home deck, I think they get it done and Freo take the 4th spot.

    Man looking at the options, I’m still cut at Max King. Saints would give Sydney a game and lions would be 4 pts behind us 

    even if we lost next week we’d probably be fourth

    If other games go as expected…

    Win - likely Sydney in Sydney

    Lose - likely Richmond in an elimination.

    Calm thoughts, calm thoughts…

    Freo will likely beat GWS so if Collingwood beat Carlton, we will drop to 6th.

    Hardest draw in the league and still a chance of 2nd. That said those losses mid season killing us now and having to rely on other results feels dirty. Saint will get touched by 50+. 

    I’d much rather play Swans in Sydney in a QF than play the Toigs at the MCG and risk get eliminated by those flogs.

    We'll beat Brisbane next week. As soon as we apply some pressure they will fold like a cheap suit. They are the definition of a flat track bully

    Sydney will win handily and finish second on %

    So I reckon it's a QF at the SGC for us. And I'll be there if it happens

    IF the Pies win , Dees and Lions Draw , Freo win and the Swans lose. The top six would be Cats,Pies,Demons,Lions,Freo then Swans. This would be great for us .

    There is only one thing we have to do next weekend and that is win. Others will sort out themselves.

    In what universe is this going to happen?

      I rate Sydney as our biggest threat  and most worried about at any ground.

    A universe where Max King can kick straight?

    Upsets can happen. I rate the Dees a premiership threat, and they lost to the 9th placed Bulldogs...

    If we beat the Lions and Sydney wins it will come down to % on if we play Swans at the MCG or SCG

    The wining score differential is about 2 goals

    We need to win with a margin and  Saints to challenge Swans and clear us 2+ goals

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
