Longmuir lost that. Dogga had to be in at the last centre bounce.

    Probably helps fitness-wise in the last quarter when you haven't travelled for 10 weeks and play an interstate side who travels every second week.

    Still, that's despicable from Fremantle. Top 2 is on the line and they've lost to a side who hasn't looked capable for a month, from 25 points up with 15 to play.

    But hear me out on this: Fremantle's had one decent win since Round 7, which was vs Sydney in Round 16, and even that now looks less strong given Sydney's fallen in a hole. Since Round 7 their other wins have been Richmond (twice), St Kilda, us (twice), GC and WC.

    Essendon will beat GC next week. If Carlton lose to Hawthorn, Essendon will move back into the 8 with two to play.

    Admittedly their last two are Sydney and Brisbane, but with Sydney's form nosedive, how can you say right now that Essendon can't win that? If they win that, they get to 13.5.

    The only saving grace here is the prospect that they can still miss finals from 13.5 (Carlton and Hawthorn have easy fixtures to get to 14 wins, the Dogs too, and Fremantle just needs one win to get to 13.5 and will hold them out on percentage if needed).

    Freo could have stayed top 2

    They gave up 5 goals in the final term.

    Now they've kept essendons final chances alive. 

    They were in total control.

    Ugh

    Watching Freo and Essendon,

    we need a lot more speed.

    Agree.

    And both teams really looked to exploit that when they played us.

    They should have to duke it out.

    Vs Billing’s, macadam , schache, Hunter , Fullerton all staring & @ vfl level, not sure how they got this so wrong and can’t expect all to impact but barring Hunter who is struggling we have no gains 

    Duuuude how about you take this to an MFC thread? Please. It’s not a big ask and I’m asking nicely. Some of us love this thread while watching NON-MFC matches. One post sooking it up about our club here and there is bearable, but you’re like a broken record… over and over again. It’s insufferable.

    Right???! It’s [censored] annoying and it’s at a point where this thread is meaningless because it’s no longer only about NON-MFC matches. It used to be fun watching those matches while on this thread but it’s become contaminated and is only getting worse.

    So that would mean only 2 finals in Melbourne  6v7 and the GF.

    2006 was close. Top 4 were all interstate.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
