    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
