Pretty exciting weekend coming up for the MFC

According to 99% of football supporters, the media etc... we are GONE

I dont blame them for saying this. After all, we have been crippled by injury. We have been hit harder than any team I can think of in my time watching footy. it has been frustrating to say the least

That is why this weekends game will be seen as the most important win in the last 40 years of the Melbourne Football Club

Make no mistake. We will win this week

Nothing is surer

This team has guts, and it will be on show Saturday night.

There will be some wildcards. The Swans wont know how to handle Petterd and Garland. I can see them both having an impact in their first ever games. Rivers is back to dominate the backline, and Travis will fire. Davey hit form last week. Paul Johnson returns toi the ground that ended his 2006 campaign and will be keen to atone.

What will happen?

The Demons will win by 36

Carroll to smash Hall

Rivers to smash O'Keefe

Bell to smash O'Loughlin

Travis and Davey to run riot

Demons to booot 21 goals

Garland will kick 5, Davey 4, Dunn 3

This win, against all odds, wil kickstart our season whoch will end up with a Preliminary final berth, at the least

Totally agree with you on this point... Season defining and career defining for some

Hmmm.... Loving the optimism!

Tough ask for Rivers to dominate, but he will surely try his guts out and reduce his opponent to only a couple of goals... TJ needs a good game! He has been nothing short of dissappointing so far this season... Loved Davey's game last week and he will only get better (probably getting [censored] that everyone is rating his brother ahead of the original) Big PJ and his courage last year at the SCG was fantastic.... The big fella needs to get games and a big string of 'em to prove he has got what it takes!

Mate, if you are even half right with your prediction then I will be stoked! Love the fact that you even posted this, let alone whether or not you believe your own hype :)

Thanks for the kind words

I am always spot on with my predictions, so just sit back and enjoy what will be a great night for all Demon supporters

Bless you YM......

Please don't ever change your predictions :lol: !!!

And heavens knows I hope you are right!!!

YM - I love optimistic positive people. Great to have them around- it sure beats reading the doom and gloom posters.

We need to all remain positive and look for the 'silver linings' in all situations.

Why do you tell lies?


Posted

Swans by 16 points.

But it could be season defining as YM suggests. I'm confident we'll play our best footy for the year.

If all 3 of Rivers, TJ and Moloney play, then that will help us dramatically.

Yze, Davey, Bruce and Pickett were our main weapons in last years game, and their all playing tomorrown night which is great!

Yze_Tragic: ".......The Demons will win by 36.......Garland will kick 5, Davey 4, Dunn 3..........." & ".... I am always spot on with my predictions ..."

So I don't need to watch now. Thanks for ruining it for me.

I'll be happy if your only 1/36th right

My thoughts exactly Ash.

And its ironic that Y M has a history of spiteful posts (that have been rightly deleted by other mods) aimed at the MFC footy dept and players when we lose.

Ex Senator Santo Santoro was more reliable.

I would have thought our injury list has been miles more defining than anything Y M could muster.

This and the next 3 weeks are against the top teams in the competition and we will still not have our best cattle on the track.

I think Yze Tragic exhibits strong mood swings with no rational basis that an observer can determine.

Thanks for the love guys

Glad you took the time out of your day to discuss your obvious obsession with me

ps. If you need to ask me any footy questions or anything about the MFC or AFL in general, feel free to private message me I am always happy yo help out my fans

We could knock off Port. As long as someone bribes the injury gods ;)

Best possible case scenario heading into that game is that we'll only be missing Robertson, Whelan, Jones, McLean and Bartram.

TJ, Moloney and Rivers would have hopefully had solid and healthy hitouts, Green should be back, Neitz will make his return, Pickett and Sylvia will be operating at about 80% (instead of 60% V Freo)...we're a sniff I reckon.

And RR, what was your honest opinion about Yze's game V Freo?

Better than he has played for the past twelve months. Does it change my stated view of him?

No it vindicates my position totally.


Posted
Same thread has appeared pre-match nearly every week this season.

But his predictions are usually earlier in the week - like Monday. I'm very concerned now that it's Friday. But I suppose the winning margin is lower - it's usually 75 points. ;)

Fair point.

Hopefully he can go on and have his best season since 2002.

Why do it on PM?

Can't we ask you here all mighty one.

I have a few mysteries that I need answered, if you would be so kind as to grace me with your wisdom.

Ok, why did both the Bulldogs and Carlton pass on the messiah, err, I mean Sylvia?

Why is Aaron Hamil considered a "great" player when the guy only averages 14 possessions, 4.4 marks and 1.25 goals a match over his 190 game career?

How long will it be before everyone realises the "Shineboner spirit" is just a myth as it only gets talked about when the Kangaroos win, and never mentioned when they get flogged?

Apart from the 3 Brownlows that Colin Sylvia wins, who will be Melbournes next Brownlow medalist?

And since you're predictions are so accurate, can you tell me when Essendon will next win a premiership. 5 years? 10 years? 20 years?

Much appreciated great one.

Ok I misfired on this prediction but I still know more about footy than anyone

Ash I will respond to your questions later today, prepare to blown away

I want watever you are on.......

Positive thinking but... good stuff

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
