Pride before a fall

sack Scott

I would happily take pick 5 if it means Geelong miss finals

 

It’s okay everyone - we’ll either get pick 4 from Freo or we’ll trade GC for it. Easy done…

In all seriousness why couldn’t have Geelong just done their job? Even in a loss I hate them 

Pick 4 looking shaky. Suns will get belted by Brisbane this week and drop below Freo on percentage. 

[censored] you Geelong. Pathetic reigning premiers can’t even beat a bottom 4 interstate team at home to secure a finals place. Absolutely pathetic today.

Pick 4's not gone yet. Depends on GC

A Geelong loss always feels good, makes the squeeze for bottom 4 of the 8 tougher for them. 

Yes, Glass-half because Geelong's chances of making the finals look very shaky:

GEE run home: POR (H), COL (A), STK (A), BULL (H)

As for the death ride:

CGS run home :BRI (H) - this round, ADE (A), SYD (A), CAR (H), NOR (A)

FRE run home: BRI (H), WCE (A), POR (H), HAW* (A)

* With Fremantle winning today the Hawks have pick 3 locked in so they can afford to play all four quarters.

Still currently hold pick 4 but we need gold coast and Adelaide to win some games now

They play each other next week so at least one of them will get a win 

Freo has Lions, Eagles, Port, Hawks 
Suns have Lions, crows, swans, blues north 
Crows have port, suns, lions, swans, eagles 

I’ll be cold in the ground before a bemoan a Geelong loss.  Book an early holiday Cats!

 

 


Picks are over rated.

Geelong probably not featuring in this years finals - absolutely priceless.

chris scott's boys must have had a round of flu - hohoho!

****test result today. Looks like we’ll finish with pick 6 now. Means we won’t have ammo to trade for Harley Reid and we will have less points to trade with Gold Coast too. So this loss is a double whammy for us. Gutted.


We should never bemoan a Geelong loss. Not to worry. We’re still getting a good pick.

And go Suns

Look at it from another perspective… Freo still plays both Brisbane and Port at home this year. If we continue winning, Freo coming into some sort of form could help nudge us into 2nd spot and a home qualifying final.

The only thing that trumps my hate for Geelong is my love for Melbourne 

Quite.

The Death Ride has now entered the final act.

You see, the flailing of the riders heading for the afterworld was always going to happen. And now, with Geelong wounded, the Fremantle Living Dead have Brisbane and Port in their last 4 rounds. The husked corpses of the west win those games and we rejoice, they lose and we chortle. Even if they were to win 3 of their last 4 from here - that would get them only above GC.

So I guess we need a new ride; the Gold Coast Love Ride.

Go Sunnies Go.

Cats vs Freo at KP

That'll sort out the % differential between them and Hawks!

I got that horribly wrong 🤦

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
