From an MFC viewpoint you want two Melbourne teams to kick away and establish themselves in positions 1 and 2.

Hard to see that happening so ideally we want to see the interstate powerhouses lose which keeps the Melbourne teams including ourselves in the hunt for a top 4 spot. 16-7 could see a team top the ladder. It got Port second spot last year with the Swans on 17-6 being number 1.

Another loss by Freo would please me

Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Dees?

  • dingley

  • crom?

  • puddy tatts
  • bears
  • us?

very early in the season, but that means we are favoured by the competition being even, so best results for us would see:

  • baggers
  • draw
  • peptides
  • tiggas
  • aints
  • meth coke
  • us
  • flagmantle
  • gc17 

Urghhhh, I would find it very funny If Carlton are 0-2, not so funny would be Hawks at 3-0.

Lions V Eagles could be a bloodbath. Mcwalter is going to find out how serious many of his senior players are about contributing.


I find it so hard to watch matches without choosing a side to barrack for. But the silly thing is by August each year a lot of results I cheered on meant Melbourne finished lower on the ladder, even if that's still 4th . But still I'll keep doing it

Voss could reasonably stake his job on the Blues coming out hard against Hawthorn. Curnow is a big in but it would not matter two squirts if Carlton brought the mental state they brought to the Richmond game.

It feels bizarre to say so, but I'd be looking at thursday as a 50/50 game with a solid prospect of outright biffo for flavour.

There's an unpleasant sensation that this season could see multiple clubs either fall horribly short of their aspirations and go into crisis that way, and multiple other clubs simple fall horribly.

Each of Fremantle, Port, Carlton and Collingwood could be exposed badly this season and find themselves faceplanting into a closing window.

Essendon, Gold Coast, North and Adelaide are all working under a significant pressure to show overdue progress.

St Kilda would be looking at West Coast like the Ghost of Christmas Future.

West Coast have Lions at the Gabba, Freo at home, then GWS in Sydney to start their season. My gut feels like I swallowed an avocado whole when I think about that scenario too much. Or perhaps it is simply the Ghost of Christmas Past, haunting me.

 

Strange side note - how will Gold Coasts 1 game on, 1 game off start to the season affect their performance for round 3?

 

 


@Demonland feel free to rename thread and do your thang.

Just wanted to make a brief comment on the expected crowd tonight. Drenching rain, Thursday night. Lucky to pull 25K tonight I reckon... where as  last Sunday Max Laughton the **** of a Fox News reporter potted us again about poor crowd turnout and neglected to mention that the GP was on and monsoon season for 1 day in Melbourne and we were playing GWS who have a total of 3 supporters, 2 of which are the pets of the only supporter known to exist.

Thank god the Suns have a bye this round.

They must be knackered after one whole game of footy

Think Blues can win tonight.

Dockers v Swans is a tough one.

Just so hard to know who to support. I guess the evil me wants to see a dozen hammies and ACLs from both teams.

Gotta do my baracking bit.

Edited by leave it to deever

On my way to the MCG. I am ready to be hurt again 😁 My expecations are low but this Carlton side does have a bit of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde about it ... so one never knows ... Carn the Blues!

So fewer behinds for Carlton, then?

I can only ever cheer Carlton on if they're playing Collingwood. Barely.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
