Sudden death Hawks vs Dogs at the MCG in their current form is peak footy IMO. Deserves 90,000+ 

Hoping for Giants to win the flag so I’d be happy if they won along with Brisbane and the Dogs. I hate Port and Geelong equally. It will be funnier if Port lose so I guess go Cats. 


Pick of the games is easily Hawks v Dogs

Worst quality Qualifying finals I can recall

Port

Dogs

GWS have a good record against the Swans so i tip them for an upset

Lions

 

The scheduling is absolutely ridiculous in week 1. 

Why would you put dogs v hawks on the Friday night when the dogs womens team play their 1st home game at written oval. Apparently the dogs raised this point.

Then put sydney v giants on a Saturday afternoon? Put the sydney game in prime time Friday night in the sydney market.  The minor premiers deserved better.

Plus the dogs v hawks sat arvo at the G would have been great.

Is that supposed to make us feel better?.......It's not working.

What a complete joke. 

How can you not hate this corrupt organization?

It really makes me question why I waste my hard earned money on this game.

I've often half joked on the podcast about getting the soapy water out at training to assist in training for wet conditions and i've often wondered whether training at night to simulate playing at night would be a benefit. The Hawks did just that in the lead up to only their 2nd night game this season.

in other words if the league and fixture was fair

I’m picking Geelong as they always seem to perform when it matters, then as much as I dislike the club, I love the way this Hawthorn team plays their footy, so I’m tipping them over the Doggies.

I love the way that GWS play (like the Hawks, they play an exciting brand of footy), but I fear the Swans will get over them in a very close game.  Brisbane will destroy a very under strength Carlton.

 

As I've said it's a shame dogs v hawks is an elimination final. They are the 2 exciting teams  currently playing the best footy.

 

Port (1-39)

Hawks (1-39)

Swans (1-39)

Lions (1-39)

 

All up 25-1

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
