Pies a genuine chance to miss the 8. not just being 0-3 but how they are playing

its a beautiful thing

Listen to Ross Lyon pregame on Fox

He knew exactly who to target, and where to do it. 
I know a lot of people don’t like Ross, but he is extremely sharp in his strategies

David Kind now jumping on the saints as how ‘amazing were they last night’

Were the saints amazing??? I thought Collingwood were awful more than Saints were good. Lots of saints goals came from Collingwood players making BAD errors that other top teams aren’t going to make. 

He would be a great customer at Baskin and Robbins trying out a different flavour each month.

David King tipped St Kilda to finish in the top 4 on Fox Footy's first crack preview show prior to round 0.

Matthew Lloyd is the one that jumps on and off a team at the drop of a hat, particularly when it comes to the MFC.

Round 0 loss to Sydney - "Melbourne are finished"

Round  1 win over Dogs - "Melbourne are a genuine flag contender, don't worry about that"

Lloyd might be a flip flopper, but he's got nothing on King.

Just on us this season so far King:

  • pumped us up - don't sleep on the dees
  • days later on the season preview of first crack (before a game had been played) he picks us to miss finals
  • he then puts us back in his eight on the next first crack (which was after our round win over the dogs)

Don't worry, he's jump off the saints soon enough.

Saints mids are poo. Not a threat.

I thought he was pretty down on us from well before the first game.

I think the flip flopping would be a tactic. He's often quite irrational and bases he's opinion on teams based on 'feel'.

Even the fact that we're talking about him is a win for Mr. King.

But taunting Brisbane fans that they've only beaten the bottom team would be a perfect two-flavoured ice cream.

Current standings of this thread's mini tipping comp (only chance I'll get to be on any leader board anywhere):

Equal top:

@Timothy Reddan-A'Blew, @dl4e

Equal third:

@whatwhat say what, @Bombay Airconditioning, @Master Chief

Now, c'mon Crows. For so many reasons.

That goal, was it from the Wayne Harmes flank ? Not Collingwood's lucky part of the ground 

It was always a goal!! 😁

I was at that game but a long, long way from the Harmes incident as we were seated in the top deck behind the Punt Road goals at the opposite end of the MCG.

Let me say without hesitation, without doubt and unequivocally that I can absolutely, cross my heart, 100% guarantee that by that late stage of the game I was so drunk I couldn't even see the other end of the ground but can confirm that indeed it was definitely a legitimate goal.

I have to admit I'm jealous of the dockers this year death riding the pies first pick. Early days but it looks like it will be a juicy pick for them.

Honestly that is a lot better than many would have feared. He looked in a very bad way when they showed a glimpse of him waiting to be loaded into the ambulance. Absolutely stone-faced.

Feels like it has been a rubbish start to the season for injuries.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
