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.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
