    What what, yes that’s what I thought, but I rarely get them all.  So which one or ones are wrong

    Hawks were ordinary against us and have been getting some stick in the media this week because of it. Would be good if this spurs them on to a performance against the Cats.

    i actually wouldn't mind the pies getting up against the Lions. Lions are better top 4 chance than pies so the more games they lose the better as far as I'm concerned.

    Another pretty straight forward round in tipping aside from possibly the Dons/Saints game.

    What’s straightforward about Brisbane- Collingwood or our game?

    i reckon i could pick teams out of a hat and have as much success as i do in tipping

    competition is so even apart from the bottom three or so teams

    1) I didn’t include our game as it’s a non MFC thread. We can win if we’re at our near best

    2) Just think Brisbane win this game based on Collingwood’s last 2 visits there and Brisbane’s awesome record up there. I’m treating their loss to Carlton as a GABBA anomaly.

    Collingwood will win in Brisbane and the press will fawn all over how they are back and the first few weeks will be forgotten.

    Brisbane are soft, and my God I hate Collingwood!

    No circumstances exist where I would want the filth to win.

    Pies will go 0-4 and will drop out of contention. 

    Carlton and GWS Giants were seemingly out of contention well past the halfway mark last year and yet, both finished close to playing off in a grand final. Even at 0-4, I wouldn’t write the Pies off.

    I never want them to win either except if it benefits us. I’m not one to cut off my nose to spite my face.

    Apparently a little wet underfoot at the Gabba with 50mm yesterday and 35mm the day before. Less rain today and tomorrow

    Gabba sold out some time ago according to my pies supporting mate from Brisbane. Should be a good game.

    Except for the country roads song

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
