I hope someone knocks out Judd. Thatd what I really want, even more than a win.

I want to see that money hungry [censored] get carried off on a stretcher, to the cheers of Demon fans

We can win, but should we?

If we help Carltank get another Priority pick (they could get poss' picks 1 & 2), I will POSSITIVELY go right off, Fair dinkum, the teams we don't want to help get the cream is Carltank & the Tiges ( who we play twice this year) & the Blue oyster boys once.

The teams I'd like to beat are Freo, Wet toast, & Saints.

Jamar vs. Kruezer- If Jamar doesn't fall on him awkwardly and crush him to death at the first bounce, we're screwed.

He can then do a Barry Hall on Judd and leave the game as "the guy who knocked out Judd" instead of "the guy who got 1 possession a game over 4 seasons".

This is definitely a danger game for the Blubaggers.... without trying too hard they'll probably win and use up one of their games they can win and stil lget a prize !!

They'll be sweating on this one !! :lol:;):rolleyes:;):lol:

please can we win this one to show judd what an awful side he plays for, no matter how much money they throw about. this is the one result i reallly want this year!

btw, listening to the wafl results & votes, natanui wasn't in the best players, got, i think, 16 possessions. the boy rich who plays for subi seems to be considered the best of the WA talent this year.

If i could choose WHICH games melbourne would rop this season, it would be both against Carltank. I cannot sit back and watch them add a 4th number 1 pick into a nice pool of young kids.

I would not mind losing this game, as long as it is not by 20+ points. I do NOT want Calrtank getting the number 1 pick.

In all honesty, I think we COULD win, but I am not sure what our intentions are or Carltanks this season, so anything could happen.

i would rather we play with dignity and actually try to win before its all too late and weve forgotten how to win

its all good to say "lets play the young bloods week in week out and get extra draft picks" but you have to instill a winning culture or they're not gonna be used to winning and knowing how to win...it was like when we played the doggies at TD last year: we were always in the game and with under a minute left, were in front thanks to a great sylvia contested mark...instead of getting numbers in defense with 39 seconds to go, we tried to take risks and the bulldogs got a goal to hit the lead and were then signalled by their captain for almost their entire team to flood back at that stage, something we should have done

anyway, thats a random story but for a lot of of our younger players like morton, who have still not won and are playing every week, their gonna get used to playing in a losing side that is too flat to actually win and are used to just getting by each week and thinking about their own game... they wont know how to play with excitement and flair

what im trying to say is that i desperately hope we can win this one...i really do...for dignity's sake

Not a chance in Hell of us beating the Blues next week

We need to keep playing the kids and get ready for the mother of all Clean Outs at the end of the year.

Not sure its that easy. Holland, Neitz and, I think, White are out of contract, so OK. But Robbo, Green and Bruce are not - Green and Bruce might be trade-able - but not for 1st rnd picks. So who else?

    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
