Guess the margin v swans

Featured Replies

 

70-75 for me

What I would be more interested to know is what people think WE will score?

 

69


I think this match will be a lot closer than what many people think.

Swans by 80

Ouch.

Sydney by 6 goals

Last week I went for 107 and it was looking good with Port steaming forward again with 2-3 minutes left and a lead of 101 but those last two wallpapers spoilt it all.

Can't see us getting closer than 50.

 

Final Score

Sydney 19. 10. 124

Melb 13. 10. 88

Best Melb

Jones, JMac, Bell, White, Bate and Pickett

Goals Melb

Bate, Pickett 3

Newton 2

Godfrey, Green, Davey, Wheatley, Neitz 1

Summary

Swans got off to a flyer, kicking 6 goals to 1 in the 1st Qtr

Melbourne then scrapped for the rest of the match and with a strong effort from Jones and JMac in the midfield keep the Dees in it....

Jeff White dominated Jolly all day, but the Swans midfield were reading him well enough to win the clearances....

Matthew Bate lead strongly up the ground all day and showed Brad Miller what a CHF should do, kicking 3 goals

Byron Pickett, playing his 200th, gave glimpses of his glory days with 24 touches, 12 tackles and 3 classy goals in a strong performance.... He layed a crunching tackle on Adam Schneider in the 3rd Qtr which left the Swan with 4 broken ribs....


Why not 59 :rolleyes:

damn...should have gone with 59...well done !! lol

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
