Many said the same thing about us in round 10 last year. 

 

I went the other way and said we would not win it.

    So many defeated Demons posts on here. Sure we are not playing great but it’s May FFS. We lost to a top 4 team away by 4 points

    I back us to turn it around and to be playing a better brand by round 20. 

    And this aura around the Pies? [censored] me, stop building it up. they have this mental hold on the comp, the Blues looked beaten when then ran out. and the Crows [censored] the bed in the last quarter.

    Well, to be fair, you’re not known for your optimism.

    Suggest you look at their game plan compared to ours to make that comment.

    You know what helps. McCrae having a team that he barely has to make changes to. He has a steady reliable forward line that kicks goals. You don't see him rotating and still trying to work out his best forward line to kick goals. Take note goody

    Vossy now coaching from the bench, just to confirm that it smells the same way as it looks. 

    I think he is down there counting interchange numbers ready to blow the whistle.

    So Collingwood will finish top probably or maybe 2nd and gets home finals straight through to the big one.

    It's always a horrible weekend when Collingwood and Essendon win and we lose

    except that, due to injury, their entire side has been on rotations from week to week

    they play a great brand of footy and their mids are excellent

    Nah, they're much better drilled then what we were last year.

    Their forward line absolutely shades above ours last year as a starter.

    That almost looked like a set play from Hill and Mihocek ....running into the pocket

    Never will be, keep reading you might learn something instead of having a crack.

    Pies look good when theyre off the leash....Carlton are pretty average making them look better than they are.

    Bring the pressure and they come back to earth.

    I can see no reason why we cant beat The Pies.

    When did we last beat them? We haven't beaten them in years and they've got better

    Believe we are looking to trade with them.

    Can't see us in with a shot now that freo are improving. They may yet make finals and we could end up with two picks between 10 - 18. Giants are pretty much certain to gave 2 x top 10 picks. Gold Coast might be the better bet for a trading partner.

    i did. hence i said i feel we can turn it around. Pies are not unbeatable and we have plenty of talent and hopefully we can make some changes to our game plan and get our clearance game going again. 

    if you are sure we will not win the flag, why bother watching any games?

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
