Much as it pains me to say it, I think the Cats will win it this year.

    West Coast playing better than us from what I have seen, not hard mind you.

    12 hours ago, leave it to deever said:

    I thought he turned it all around against cars h and a game and prelim and seemed to love kicking them...almost skipping after giving high 5s.

    Gone back to his old poor  self of set shots. 

    If he is accurate it makes a huge difference

     

    I wouldn't want him kicking after the siren for a win.

     

    Other than that I feel bad for the criticism of the big guy who bleeds red and blue.

    Not sure if you were on the turps when you wrote this Deever, but I think big Maxy did just fine kicking for goal after the siren Rd 23 last year and setup our magnificent premiership drought breaker.

    I don't want to critise him either.  He's MFC royalty as far as I'm concerned, but I'd really love it if he can find his goal kicking radar again and help us smash the Cats in a prelim on the way to a flag at the spiritual home of the MFC at the MCG!

    I absolutely despise Collingwood, particularly after beating us twice, however is it actually better for us if they beat Sydney today?

    If we beat Brisbane and Collingwood win twice then I think we’d play the Pies (2nd v 3rd) at the G in week 1. I’d like to think the boys have learnt a few lesson from our two encounters against them.

    Conversely, if Sydney beat Collingwood and St Kilda  they probably get us on percentage which would mean a trip to Sydney week 1 assuming we beat Lions.

    Really torn on what’s the better outcome for today.

    (Ofcourse all of the above will mean nothing if we lose next week)

    One thing I know for sure BBP, I'm not wasting one ounce of stress on this game. Swans win means Pies lose, Pies win then we may get the scenario you mentioned.

    If I may for a moment on St Kilda, I think it's time they do a partial re-build. They're in the dead zone which is frankly the stink zone. So much money tied up in average players and no proper direction. Their football looked great early in the season when they took the game on and used pace, they now look one paced and boring. Have someone sit on Jack Sinclair and there goes the rebound 50 attacks. Extremely disappointing.

    Seeing Ben Cunnington and Sam Docherty do what they did today makes you feel things are pretty good in the world.

    Are we better off if Collingwood beat Sydney? 1 and 2 almost locked and both Melbourne teams

    Or do we prefer Sydney win a close game?

    Can't see either losing Rd23, reckon Carlton will be spent and StKilda won't help us

    Almost irrelevant if we lose, unless Freo and Sydney lose last Rd

    If we win, it's difference between Coll or Syd at the G in FW1

    How good would a draw be? Just getting it in now on the 1 in a million chance I can look like a genius later.

    Wouldn’t mind getting the Pies at the G if they’re still unbeaten

    Can't see a result that favours us greatly but for the purpose of keeping top 2 possible....Go Swans

    Eagles fading in last night's game against Freo did us no favours

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
