Somebody has too. I refuse to believe this team is as bad as the past two weeks have shown. You don't get to play AFL if you have no skill. It will come together and I say next week the Cats are going to be our first victim. GO DEES I still believe.

    You should put money on it. We will be the biggest sure thing at 20-1 that anybody has ever seen in their lives.

    After what the Cats did to the bombers today, this looks like a danger game for us.

    mate, they will not win but l reckon they won't be thrashed like everyone thinks they will. The ywill pick up their game, hopefully only around 40-50 points

    i agree, if the dees dont play to at least 90% of their full capacity there's a chance we might not win...

    clearly you weren't present on the night of August 8th 2003. Not a massive margin, but we were atrocious and it was a thrashing in most senses of the word, not to mention the elimination final 05

    is Matthew bate playing next week?

    Nice optimism, well.. actually... you are correct. There is a foundation of skill, even if it is a bit muddled ATM and it will come together sooner or later, just don't know when.

    At some point something will galvanize them and they'll turn the corner, it will happen, they aren't as bad as the last 2 weeks have shown

    He played for Sandringham on the weekend. Someone posted that they 'had word' that he was two weeks away.

    Looking at Tabsportsbet website

    Melbourne $10

    Geelong $1.03

    But who knows really could be an upset, like last year when Brisbane defeated West Coast at Subiaco and Everyone was thinking all week leading up to this game that Eagles would thrash Brisbane in a Subiaco Slaughter and Brisbane were like $10 to defeat the Eagles.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
