I've put my hard earned on the Dogs tonight.

Rightly so Uncle. No dusty no tigers.

 

I can't recall the last time when 5 games out from season's end that the performance of teams below us were almost irrelevant to our long term position.

Port and Brisbane are the main games in town

Let the others scrap....


I'm still hoping we win all our games, including a big percentage earner on Sunday, Coll. don't win by much tomorrow, and lose the next three.  Meanwhile Port lose one game, and Bris don't have any percent boosters......and we end up minor Premiers!!!

I know it doesn't matter if we're first or second....but I quite like being minor Premiers. Last time we went on and won the Major prize!!

Um, Collingwood are 3 games ahead, plus percentage.

 

Go Cats. Go Dockers.

I feel so dirty, good thing I have no pride.

Won't be surprised if the Saints knock off the media anointed Premiers elect.


I’m hoping the giants beat the swans. Don’t want the swans to have something to play for when we play them in the last round.

They'll find something to play for ... Teams always do against us.

I distinctly recall when they didn’t find something to play for against us and we’d still get spanked 🏏

For once I just want a team to put the cue firmly in it's rack against us. I see lots of NON-MFC games (to bring this back on topic) where one team has gone to lunch yet we'll play them the next week and it's back to work.

Yes, the last few weeks have certainly felt like that… shame about Carlton’s resurgence really… hoping for a Giants and saints win this week… likelihood is quite low though.

North will fold this weekend. Nice percentage boost coming up

I want Geelong and Carlton out of the finals.

Who to barrack for tonight to increase the odds of that happening?  Arrrghhh, it's all too complicated- advise please.

I leave aside the Geelong Port game - as Jaded said, too damaging to the soul to even think about it.

A Geelong win is good for the Dees, but bad for the soul

For the first time I can think of Geelong is the lesser of two evils here. It also helps I won't have to watch Tom Hawkins waddle around.

Good luck with that.

Ok ok I’ll just barrack against Port 

Not FOR Geelong tho. Nobody call the psych ward. 

I'm thinking because of the influence behind closed walls in the Port Players Rooms that there would be a fair amount of dismay and quite a lot of annoyance between the players and Coach, 

This bloke can be construed as neglecting his interest and their interests and welfares, by his cognisance of  some of them returning to the ground.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
