Well, the last 3 games I have attended where the final last year against Carlton,  Brisbane this year at the Gabba and last week at the freezing MCG. All losses by less than a kick! Will be home tonight in Brisbane watching on Kayo so we are a much better chance. 🤞

    We play well at Marvel, I do worry about a shoot out again. If that happens one of our guys will kick a bag. Who knows how close we'll get.

    Yep.

    You can't lose most of your close games and expect finals.

     

    I think we are really up against Muhammad Ali.  Was it the rumble in the jungle

    And he gave out a whipping


    Last time we met, Tracca,May, Lever, Max and Tmac were in cheat touch with 50 marks between them.

    Chandler was in scintillating form as he is at the start of seasons with three sausage rolls and even Bbb kicked two 

    Oliver played his best game of the season.

    The drive from our backline we had was immense then and something that Gws recently showed us up in.

     

    Reckon we’ll have a comfortable half time lead of around 4 goals as the Dogs might be a bit flat off a 5 day break. 

    Then they’ll run all over us in the second half for a 5 goal Dogs win, due to our inability to put together 4 quarters against good sides.

    On paper our midfield just doesn’t stack up against theirs.

    Yeah nah, don't think so. Won't be going either, I've got points in the bank for attending last week.

    Doggies off a 5 day break more than evens the odds imv.

    I was going to quip that someone had put vodka in your water bottle "again" but then had a closer look.

    Yep you picked the wrong week to give up the old Metho.

    Don't worry, what you spend on Liver tests is offset by the savings on beers you make at Marvel these days.

    Dogs are very tall

    And their talls have been in good form

    Unlike rd 2 when their 4 tall attack wilted.

    Wouldn't the 5 day break cause them to struggle later in the game more than early?

    Last chance saloon for us. Their 5 day break, after an interstate trip, after being in Geelong the week prior, gives us some sort of edge, but on current form this doesn’t look great. If we lapse in the middle two quarters like we did last week, we’re no chance.

     

    I can’t see a world in which we win tonight. I wonder how much last weeks loss sapped our confidence/motivation.

    True. But I wouldn't be surprised if they come out a bit flat after being up for 3 weeks.

    I could be wrong and they've blown us out of the water by quarter time.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
