NON-MFC: Round 22

[Demonland 74,429]

Who are you tipping this week and what combination and winning margins leads us on the path to Premiership Glory?

[Little Goffy 14,963]

Lukosious omitted is interesting. I guess Hardwick is making sure he's fresh for preseason and our forward line's 2025 resurgence.

Want the filth to win so we can knock them out of finals in rd24. Like the roos to win so the tigers get the spoon.

Think I will go back to bed and keep dreaming.

I don't.... I just want someone to go into Sherman Tank mode and totally put Maynard into La La Land!

My perverse interest is in a fully interstate top 4. If this happens at most there are only two finals in Melbourne (first week) and the GF.

Am I being unfair

Hope Freo and Sydney can bounce back and take care of the Filths'.

Some Green Velvet required.

I’m all in on this too. The AFL does everything in its power to orchestrate results, so I love it when their plan fails and it costs them money.

They’ll try spin it into a PR win about ‘the strength of the national competition’, but then give Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon the softest fixture imaginable to make sure they are all top 6 in 2025.

I just want sydney to win to basically knock the pies out of finals contention & wreck Howes 250th.

It would be great if somehow gc could win one away & knock off the bummers

[buck_nekkid 6,101]

I tipped the home teams except for the saints.  No idea if it will play out that way, most tops turvy season i can remember..

This will be hard, but I actually want Collingwood to win tonight:
1/ Sydney losing really opens up the comp to "anyone can win" (sadly, not us)
2/ More importantly, I want Pies fans to think they're a chance and for us to destroy their dreams in the last round when we waste them.
3/ Point 2 relies on is winning in the last round.

Go Swannies.

Tear em a new one

[Sir Why You Little 37,457]

All the People on here wanting a Filth win tonight. 
 

Hang your collective heads in shame

I admit it's too hard.
I'm instinctively baracking for the Swans

 

[The heart beats true 18,201]

Nice goal JJ!

[leave it to deever 17,617]

Umps are a disgrace 

[Ethan Tremblay 31,388]

Shouldn’t that have been a free kick from the centre? 

[doc roet 1,302]

That's not a free for a misdemeanor, it a 6 point penalty.

The magic thumb 

[Ethan Tremblay 31,388]

Have turned it off. Just can’t get into the footy much these days. Free kick, free kick,  flop, score review, score review, score review. So darn boring. Less than 10 minutes of play time and 11 free kicks.

my favourite scenario is Sydney win but to get in the finals Cwood have to beat us by a large margin but fail, preferably because we beat them.  Haven't looked at the ladder to know if this is feasible. 

 

[leave it to deever 17,617]

As a Mfc supporter, it's par for the course to dislike Cwood.

But seriously this pies outfit has a particular high number of nuffies in it , so it's easy to dislike.

[leave it to deever 17,617]

Swans had better get going. If they lose tonight at home it's panic stations.
