NON-MFC: Round 08

[Demonland 73,161]

Who are you tipping this week? Who do you actually want to win? What are the best results for the Demons?

Adelaide, Carlton and the Suns winning (along with us) would put a nice break on the 7-12 group.

GWS may as well beat the Swans given that the Swans will be in the mix for positions 2-5.

Tigers could upset Freo but I doubt it.

If Dogs lose to the Hawks Bevo won't see the season out

I'm prepared to cede top spot to GWS for the present. They do us little harm if they are a break away number 1.

The next 6 weeks will see some important positioning for the post bye run home.

No 426ers at Alberton

Some cracking matches 

Arguably match of the round is on 1:45 on Saturday which is strange

WC to beat the bombers is my hot tip 

[Gawndy the Great 9,011]

7PM match at the GABBA on Sunday night? Seriously htf did that get through to the final fixture?

Two Queensland teams. You'd be lucky if 20,000 people in the whole country GAF. 5,000 of whom support a team that hasn't existed for nearly 30 years.

I think when we last played in Hobart they played each other on the Saturday at Marvel and Essendon goaled in the final seconds to win by 1 point. I remember walking past a pub and stopped to watch the last two minutes when I saw the coasters were leading.

it's a sin to want the scum to win

Another draw would be nice

[640MD 3,432]

Indeed it would   A couple of close ones

ours v Geelong.   And blues v pies

could go either way 

[picket fence 17,522]

Smoke, Fire, Swans??

[DubDee 26,123]

So many good games, i’ve cleared all plans for the weekend. if anyone needs me i’ll be in front if the Telly, aside from Sat night of course 

[Lucifers Hero 40,364]

I don't really want Carlton to win. 

But. 

I do want Coll to lose.  A loss this week closes their chances of a top 4 finish.  🙏🤞.  And, with such a poor %, a loss could keep them out of the 8 and miss finals altogether !!! 🙂

some absolutely cracking games this round

• crom?
• baggers?
• bloods?
• aints
• us?
• peptides
• flagmantle
• footscray
• gc17?

there are five games that could have repercussions in terms of setting sides up for the remainder of the season

should be a great round of footy

I'm a big fan of Sunday night games. Seems these days they are only before public holidays. Essendon Carlton in Round 13 before KB.

I'm the other way Clinto - I'd rather get a good win out of the way early in the round and enjoy the weekend stress free. Nothing worse than waiting for Sunday night to roll around.

Crows will get it done tonight for Rory. Spiritual leader
