lol we are going to get slaughtered next week… 

I genuinely think our form line puts us as the worst team in the comp right now 

It does. I think it is all the sides right now our supporters are the least hopeful for what will play out for 2024

Absolute waste of a list spot.  We can ill afford to be recruiting more downhill skiers.

Disagree but fair enough. Please let me know of another experienced/ tall forward/ rucking option that might be available at a reasonable rate. At the moment we have nothing.

having fun with my pies mates:

will they still carry bruz off after a 100 pt loss to the bottom team?

maybe drag him off by his ankles?

 

can’t see this backfiring 😬

Binman would be loving this! 

Absolutely shows if you’re not switched on, you’ll get belted by anyone.

I hope our players are watching this because you can’t just go expecting to win against any side.

Ok.

A serous question.

If we win next will you give us credit for the victory.

Or will you downplay the win because 'it's only the roos'?

Also think it’s funny that Langdon in ‘22 bags the Pies and they go after them and beat us.

Comben says “we think they’re gettable” and North actually goes out and belts them in the first half.

Happy to disagree.

Use the spot for a decent inside or outside mid if you can't find a quality forward.

Ruck contributions and rucks in general are also highly over rated unless you land a generational player like Cox or Max.

Don't get too caught up in the 'we need to desperately find a replacement for Max" mantra

Looking at glass extremely half full if the Pies lose this are we back in the running? Other than the Swans is any team consistent? Freo win by 90 then lose by 70. The way we are playing we can't beat anyone atm. Of course Petracca really hurts. Just think top 4 is up for grabs if anyone can sustain a run. I'm living on hope that we're not as bad as we've been displaying. Of course, lose to North next week and it's just about curtains.

Don’t hide from the truth mate..

We are the worst form team in the comp. 
The Filth played with us last week.

Today is the Collingwood I thought we’d get last week. Injury depleted, missing their three premiership midfield heroes and their best goal kicker, and understandably being no match for their opposition.

It is the Collingwood we got. We were just worse. And not up for it.

Any team on any day can be on or off. Even the Swans got done by the Tigers. Also, a lot of the games have been of poor entertainment quality this year - maybe even around 60% of them - but I am actually enjoying the style of footy being played by Tigers, Hawks, and today the Roos. 

But to come on this thread to see people's thoughts on non MFC games, only to be flooded with the latest click bait rhetoric of Goodwin is hopeless, we are the worst team in the comp, imagine if they were playing us, our list management is the worst . . . blah, blah, blah is simply nauseating. 

I am as frustrated as anyone, but maybe we a need a separate thread entitled "my vitriol when everything is not going my way"? 

And back to the game at hand: how good is it to see the Pies stinking it up, and their horrendous supporter base silenced by pathetic football!! Makes for an enjoyable Sunday arvo. I just hope they can keep it going.

Dead Right. We have lost the fighting spirit as a team. Certain individuals are still trying hard, but the Team Solidarity has gone…

I actually think this will help us. It’ll make them realise they need to be switched on. Also North are pretty average at the MCG.

    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
