Earlier this year, you would remember that we were keeping an eye on Joffa and his toothless followers over at a Magpie message board

They created a banner that went something like 'Season Dee-Railed', which they did not get to use becaase we smashed them for the 4th straight Queens Birthday

Well Friday night we can cause some real pain for the ferals. If we beat them, they are a real chance to fall out of the top 8 by seasons end. Nothng would be sweeter than destroying their season

So, should we pull out the 'Finals Over' banner , a la 2005?

Geez, that would cut them deep!!!!

ps. Anyone have a link to that Magpie board? Would be funny to see if they are wasting their time making another banner

that would be pretty good magic, only thing this time is that it's an away game, so we won't have the exclusive melbourne members area to spread the banner in like we did in 2005... i remember that day, with the banner being right above me, was pretty awesome...

the other thing is, if we beat them are their finals over? they still could make it as they're 6 points clear of the next closest team...

Actually they decided not to finish making it because of the connotations of the word "derailed" being in the same week as the Kerang train crash.

That is a credit to them.

Yeah....as much as I love beating the pies, I have to agree with the last few posts - not a lot of point teasing a team for not making the finals (they can still get there!) when we are so far away from the top 8 ourselves.

Lets just concentrate on lots of cheering for Neita and do our bit to get our boys over the line.

Don't you think it's a little bit hypocritical to tease a side about being out of the finals when we have been out of the finals for most of the season?

Let's just beat them and enjoy Neitz's 300th.

Amen to that Bob :) !!!

the banner should be

Kevin Sheedy as Coach?? 500,000 a year

Revenue from Queens Birthday? 1 million $$$

Beating Collingwood twice in one year?? Priceless

Agreed - we are in no position to slag anyone off. Even the toothless Tigers beat us. Besides, Friday is not about the despised 'Pies anyway. They will take their unwashed masses & flourishing balance sheet into September & bugger it up again. Why should we bother hauling out some tired banner to state the bleeding obvious. F*%k 'em.

Besides, if I was to stuff a banner into my Gladstone bag, there'd be no room for my red & blue tartan travel rug & my thermos. Certainly couldn't conceal one beneath my tweed jacket.

If your heart beats red & blue Friday is about Neita - the other mob are just there because someone has to be.

Go Number 9 !!!!

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
