…still.

Don't get me wrong. I hate Geelong, but we spanked them in a PF. That's much worse than 186.

    I went with a Fitzroy-supporting mate.  He was driving.  We had to stay until the end.  :wacko:

    Round 23 and PF in 2021 cleansed me.

    I don't think I ever enjoyed a game of football from start to finish like I did that PF.

    Don't get me wrong, the Grand Final was on a different level, but of course like every other Melbourne supporter there were moments of apprehension and worry. Not the prelim. 

    It was pure bliss.

    In the past we have performed poorly in games like this. The other team has nothing to lose and we have often coasted.

    I would like to see a ruthlessness that becomes the norm for us.

    Spot on jnr, we never seem to be ruthless in any games. I predict a 6 goal win.

    We played pretty ordinary footy at Waverley. Of course the Fitzroy game was the worst. The most annoying thing about Waverley was the fact they used White Crow tomato sauce to put on your pies.

    ... I thought we lost by 186 to Geelong?

    Either 187 or 188, I would love someone else to have the largest losing margin record - couldn't think of a better team than the Eagles.:cool:

    I could think of a couple of others but they will do for now...

    Think it will be a standard 8 or 9 goal win. In soccer vernacular West Coast will park the proverbial bus and throw numbers back. 100 point + wins are more difficult with the way football is played these days.

    Agreed, although how good was that come from behind round 23 win to clinch top spot? Hawkins hands on his head like wtf just happened. 🤣 Golden.

    Exactly what I was thinking about earlier mate! I'm not sure I love the mixed metaphor, but everything else about the delivery, the moment and Max's reaction is brilliant.

    I actually think Adam Simpson is not a bad bloke, WCE supporters not so much, don't agree that we are not ruthless, there have been a couple of games in the last two years we have put the foot down, different to pre 2021 era. I just don't see anyway we cannot win this handsomely, with a system that should be good for 25 goals.

    Sadly I felt this way before the Brisbane game...

    I remember listening to a game on the radio when we lost to WCE by 100 points, maybe around 2013-15, and we were so bad that I almost wanted them to lose by 100 for some weird, sick reason! God we were in the absolute depths back then. I’d love to win by 100 for some belated revenge.

    Sounds like they're missing a few which will make life hard for them! i must admit i am never 100% confident going to Perth to play a perth team but this is probably going to be one of the weakest Eagles 22's that they've had on the park in a long time.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
