NON-MFC: Round 14



Recommended Posts

Interesting times. I hope the focus shifts off the dees since we cant stink it up this week.

Who knows the way this season is going. Really the Swans and hawks are in form atm, everyone else is a bit of a guess.  Cant trust too many to play their best footy this time of year, and expect some upsets.

The combination that suits Melbourne.

St Kilda to beat Brisbane

Dogs to beat Freo (you could also argue Freo winning is better as it keeps us a game clear of Dogs)

Richmond to beat Hawthorn

Sydney to beat Adelaide

North to beat Collingwood 

Port to beat GWS

Combo paying $704-1

Last week's combo that suited Melbourne of $349-1 amazingly saluted (Rich, Bris, Hawks, North, StK, Syd, Carlt)

Give Kangas a real shot against Collingwood.

Port best value of the round.

My cousin is a stats machine:

13 years on an AFL list, two months older than Max Gawn. Game number 57 tonight

Tom Campbell is the full Jake ‘Spencil’ Spencer 

Campbell - 12.5 years, 57 games
Jonathan Giles - 12 years, 63 games
Spencil - 10 years, 38 games

Honourable mention
Andrew Phillips - 12 years, 82 games

Gotta confess… I’ve never heard of him. 57 games in 13 years is clearly why. 🤣

By the lack of people on this site tonight I think Dees supporters maybe avoiding footy all weekend. Can’t blame them. Brayshaw why do umpires report leave it to MRO. The fact that the camera might miss an incident obviously escape his grasp

Geez there are a lot of dull games this weekend.  

Are Saints a chance?  not sure it's even worth tuning in for

'Managed' one of if not their best player from last week in Milera.

Membrey not great against the Suns but still part of a winning team.  You would expect he gets at least one more week to see if he could bring something after kicking 5 against Casey two weeks before.

Tanking?

I thought he must have been a mature age recruit picked up in the mid season draft.

I was gonna tune in but I’ve got some drying paint that needs watching. 😝

Nah I’ve watched the first quarter coz I love watching Mitchito Owens in action. But despite him kicking the Saints’ only goals, all two of them, seeing them cop a thumping from Brisbane is very unpalatable.

The Lions are a real chance this year still. I put money on them to win the flag two weeks ago at crazy odds 

stranger things have happened, probably

Brian Taylor now openly sledging players for not doing what he thinks they should do.

He is a joke.

he is such a [censored]. i still remember from our GF win telling Kozzi where to run. 

and Gus kicking that important goal BT just talked about how he didn’t turn around and check for options

so annoying

The Lions were gifted that goal. There was nothing in that. 😡

A free kick against for not looking at the ball????

    MORE FIERCE by Meggs

    We’re back!  Winning the last three matches has recaptured our Demon spirit and, with superstar players returning from rehab, our Season 2024 dreams are not over yet.   So come along 5.05 pm Saturday afternoon to watch this Round 9 ladder-defining match at the Field of Dreams. Expect the Tigers to be fierce, but surely the Demons will be more fierce. Playing conditions are expected to be a dry 15 degrees with a typically gusty Cranbourne wind. The media opprobrium of the ill-consi

    IN FRONT by Meggs

    In this must-win clash between Melbourne 11th on the ladder and St Kilda 8th, it was the Demons who were in front all day to win in a hard-fought Round 8 clash to make it three in a row to keep theit slim finals chances alive. A good crowd of enthusiastic footy families for week 2 of Pride Round had gathered.  The full pews in the well-appointed RSEA Park grandstand provided excellent viewing.   The Saints won the toss and elected to kick to the southern end favoured by a strong 2-3 g

    THE TRADING CHRONICLES 02

    Part 2: Watching grass grow by Whispering Jack Critics of test cricket (and I’m not one of them) will often claim the sport is excruciatingly boring: that following a five day match is much like watching grass grow. However, the longest form of that game has nothing on the first week of the AFL trade period when it comes to inducing sleep among those in the football public who follows this process in its somnolent moments. The week gone by has been no exception. Only two player trades

    THE CAVALRY ARRIVES by Meggs

    The injury plague which has beset the Demons 2024 campaign is finally starting to dissipate and with consecutive wins over GWS Giants and a 2-point nail-biter in Adelade, a sense of optimism is rising.  Some commentators are now asking whether the Dees can make finals? A huge surprise with team selection this week when it was announced that champs Olivia Purcell, Paxy Paxman and Eden Zanker would play.   Hallelujah!  The cavalry has arrived. St Kilda missed the finals last season on pe

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised
