Even if we beat North, can anyone honestly see us getting near Brisbane at the GABBA the week after, now that they've turned their season around?

Honestly, in true MFC style that's the game we'll probably win (after losing to North) 🤣

Beating North proves nothing to me unless it comes with clear evidence of improved structure. I'll consider joining the bandwagon again if we win against Brisbane and then the following week.

The last 4 games have doused my interest well and truly not so much by the fact we lost (other than St Kilda) but the way we played. Watching Casey as well has re-enforced my concerns.

No. Good that heads begin to roll

We are on the edge right now 

You missed PF’s attempt at wordplay. He means Goodwin, as in, Goodwin’s head will roll.

Heads would definitely roll if that happens.

I don't think so

Goody will probably roll out the same team the following week.

Did anyone see West Coast getting near Fremantle, or us, earlier this year?

Did anyone see North leading Collingwood by 54 points in the third quarter last week? Or even getting near West Coast when they hadn't been within 26 points of any other side in their first 11 games of the year?

Did anyone see Adelaide getting near Carlton in Round 5 when they were 0-4 and Carlton was 4-0?

Or the Dogs beating Fremantle by 10 goals the week after they lost at home to a bottom 10 side (who were themselves coming off a loss to a bottom 10 side), when Fremantle had just beaten us by 100?

No change

Probably because with the exception of 3 players the rest are just VFL standard.

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    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
