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

Just red hot right now.

 

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.

Good to see Essendon get the 4:40 slot. I don't think I've heard anyone mention them at all this week.

Hope port thrash them


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

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
