I hate to be negative but just can't see us winning this. Maybe its the MFCSS setting in. When there's been a golden opportunity in front of us to take it we just fail due to expectations. But I feel like we have also selected a team pull of one paced mids and Collingwoods speed of the half back and wings will expose us. Collingwood by 3 goals.

But it won't though Pickett Geelong came off a 4 day break and Port had a 6 day break. Yet Geelong were still able to comfortably beat port. Its just going to come down to who wants it more and the better team on the day.

What a poor analogy Jack. 3 of those games were against bottom 4 sides, in which Vanders was poor in all 3 games. Don't make out that Vanders was a big contributor in those games because he wasn't. Did you somehow miss the other 2 games against Geelong and Richmond where he also barely fired a shot? Like Harmes the past two games he's been undisciplined and given away stupid free kicks. He's another Goodwin pet alongside Melksham and Harmes.

thanks @Demonland and @Grapeviney

Me too please

Vandenberg.. one of the most overrated player on this website. Selections are meh for me. Harmes was fumble and gave away free kicks last week. Rivers was clean with the ball and provided defensive rebound off half back. But hey let's drop the kid who contributed far more then the out of form senior player. Crazy goody at it again.

Even old mate @olisik has fully admitted that he will only comment on here when there is a loss.. What an absolute hoot he would be at any party.

Yep, that draw really [censored] everything up. Saints can easily drop this game Gresham being an out for them is huge. Last game of 2017. We should have eaten Collingwood up which would have given us a finals gig. Expectations was high to beat them comfortablyand we failed miserably.

Sier out for them is good. Big bodied midfielder who has been good for them since he came into the side. He's a bull who would have easily gone head to head with Petracca or Oliver. Only problem is that Pendlebury will most likely come in for him.

Holy [censored].. GWS dropping this game and by a big percentage means that this game is a HUGE must win game. Its simple, we beat Collingwood, we go to 8th spot. C'mon Dees let's dare to dream!

Congrats Koz! https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/794636

I would be gobsmacked if Gawn played this weekend. Reports have him not training at all this week. With his history of knee injuries, surely Goodwin and Burgess aren't that stupid to play him.

Sounds like Pendles will play this weekend. Just our luck of course.

Loved it. Showed a side of Goodwin we had not seen before.

I made that comment before the Gawn PCL injury came out. If Gawn doesn't get up then Jackson plays.

That does not help us at all.

Errr, yes.

He should not have played. We were always going to win that game. It was just a silly decision by Max and the coaching staff that allowed him. The moment he ran onto the field he looked banged up and sore. It's now potentially cost him 2 games.

Gives McDonald and Jackson another opportunity. If Gawn doesn't play then this weekend then this will show where're really at. Win this without Gawn and we should dare to dream again.

He ain't getting another year 7 games to go, and 30 years of age. 7 games at that age won't save him. Thanks for your time Browny.

Well said.

Yeah no

Didn't like the [censored] when he was at the dees and don't like him now. Looks fat. Give it away dunny, you're cooked.
