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

    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

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
