Freo could be in trouble. Weather forecast for Sydney this weekend is cold and wet . GWS could knock them off if it rains.

Its in Canberra.

    It's not negative. I'm just stating that there's a good chance we won't finish in the top four.  Are we going to bury our heads in the sand?

    No.  What we should all be hoping for  to bury is Brisbane, for starters.  
    What a pathetic meaningless thread.

    GWS and St Kilda both have something to prove and will want to finish the season off well, especially the Saints after last week.

    Swans are in red hot form, but Saints might not get blown out of the water, and we might have another big win against the Lions.

    To suggest we are not finishing top 4 a week before the final 8 is settled, is frankly, just posting garbage for the sake of posting garbage.

    Can’t believe how negative some of our supporters are.

    im surprised there’s not a recent thread called “ we won’t win the 1964 or  2021 flag”

    If we win, we're near-certain to play Sydney, with only percentage deciding whether it's at the MCG or SCG.

    In the unlikely event Sydney loses to St Kilda, we will host:

    1. Collingwood, if they beat Carlton
    2. Fremantle, if Collingwood loses and Fremantle wins
    3. Sydney, if both Collingwood and Fremantle lose and Sydney maintains its percentage buffer over Brisbane
    4. Brisbane, if both Collingwood and Fremantle lose and somehow Sydney sheds so much percentage that they drop past Brisbane (who will have also lost to us)

    If we lose, we can still finish top 4 but would need two of these things to happen:

    1. Collingwood loses to Carlton
    2. Fremantle loses to GWS
    3. Sydney loses to St Kilda and sheds enough percentage to drop behind us

    Those are in order of likelihood. The last one isn't happening, because St Kilda stink. So if you want an insurance policy, get around GWS.

    For a post that virtually all are saying shouldn’t be a separate topic, why is it getting enough oxygen to expand onto a 3rd page? (I apologise for adding to the topic)

    I also cannot believe that people are responding to this thread thus one by one expanding the number of pages attached to said thread.

    We're winning the flag!

    And in the unlikely chance of a draw we would play Geelong.

    Tbh everyone has the right to share their views, we’ve all encountered MFCSS at some point in time. Positive or negative, hopeful or cautious, it just shows that our current form is not as confidence inspiring. Nevertheless, I couldn’t believe how tight the table looks right now.. this will be a big week in footy!

    It's pitiful, it's almost like they revel in the misery 🤔

    Meanwhile I've added another to the ignore list, it makes Demonland way more enjoyable

    sportsbet has it effectively 50/50 to beat Brisbane, I wouldn't be so negative.

    “We're not beating Brisbane up there so…..”

    Because they smashed us in the middle of last year….then easily accounted for us in the final in Adelaide and pulverised us on the G earlier this year…wait…what??!! 
     

    FFS stop sooking and start supporting. If you actually let yourself enjoy these times, it’s a thrill ride. 
     

    Or would you rather Less pressure and be focussing on another high draft pick?

    Wanna bet? More sure of beating Brisbane than any other 8 team, only crew that make our offence look good, and our pressure is higher for longer. Easiest game of the next 4.

    I think we can beat The Bears comfortably.

    We ARE finishing top 4.

    So there 😛

    • 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.
