So it was pointless hawthorn winning last night. They missed the finals and gifted the pies a top 4 finish. Ugh! But go doggies in the finals.

So we need the dogs to win today. Push the bummers down to 8th and hopefully they have to go to perth and get flogged. I know the cats will still get a home final but it would be nice o see brisbane finish on top.

I think the only teams in the 8 that I would want to see win the GF is brisbane, west coast and the dogs if they make it. If its hawthorn then I wouldn't mind them winning. This is going to be a long 5 weeks.

I know. It's bad enough essenscum are in there but now the pies have been gifted a double chance. You have to hand it to Clarko. He is a genius. I know I have gone on about it, but if freo held onto win last week then that stupid black/red team would be out. West Coast have shot themselves in the foot. Win tonight they would have had a double chance. They have fumbled, dropped easy marks, spoiled each other and just kicked badly. This finals series is going to be hard to watch. There aren't many teams in there that I want to win the grand final.

Usually it wouldn't bother me if the hawks in but come on west coast. We want collingwood out of the top 4. So Wc gave to win as does richmond or they could draw with brisbane meaning they finished on top and the tigs still get top 4.

If only essenscum had lost last week or to nth or Sydney. They would have missed finals probably. Hopefully they go out week1. Hopefully Richmond and west coast win and knock the pies out of the top 4

They said on the radio there was no one down the line to kick to and gawn was trying to get across. Also do we blame Oliver for giving away that undisciplined 50?

Typical Melbourne

So melksham didn't get a holding free according to the radio commentary?

Boys are probably counting down the minutes just to get this hellish season over

Our last 30 minutes of the season. Here we go

So Thompson and Lewis's last games. Usually when a player retires the other team will line up and applaud him off. anyway not really an issue, I reckon Jordan will just want to get off quickly and probably thinking I didn't think my final season would end like this. 16 and rain on saturday. Brilliant. Preuss will go well in the wet. Maybe Gawn is having a last minute test.

Well thank god this rabble of a season is over. I don't have foxtel and would usually go to watch it somewhere but not bothering. Seriously lets just hope we get through the game with no serious injuries. I have no idea what to expect but I reckon the boys will just want this to be over.

Add to that list. All Melbourne supporters. Broken hearts

It's nice Clarko was there to. Best of luck Jordy whatever you next move is.

So Jesse Hogan will be getting a new coach again. Gee thats a few now for him. Ross would get to frustrated coaching our team. It is interesting they did it today and not next week after the season finished.

Is our 186 defeat in danger of getting beaten?

A year ago this weekend we were all on here all happy and talking about making finals because we beat west coast. What a difference 12 months make. All the talk on here is should the coach be sacked, do we need a new captain and players arguing on field.

doggies all over gws. You really wouldn't want to play them in finals.

Id not play Max. He said yesterday on radio he hurt his hammy and felt it tighten. No point putting him out there and him doing it off the bone or him hurting it in the first few minutes and not having a ruckman against goldy for the game. Put him away. Don't deflate the guy anymore. He has tried his butt off for us this year. He can hold his head up high.

Happy to see the tigs win only because it puts the pies back to 5th spot. Still hope the dogs get up. Next week they play the crows which could decide 8th spot.

Cracking games today. Richmond v WC will go either way, I hope the doggies can get up and knock the crows of 8th and it's Roughy's farewell game. A shame its at 4:40 at marvel against GC but you would hope the hawks fans will show up to farewell a great player of there club.

Each year when I pay my mcc subs I always renew my mfc/mcc membership at the same time. This year I didn't. I will renew it but I thought stuff it they can wait a few months.

One of the best send offs we have seen in awhile. Fair enough to. Who would really be able to carry big Sandilands off.

Essendon losing stoppages 30-18, clearances 41-26 hitouts 54-15 and free kicks 23-7. These are stats from Jon Ralph's twitter. How are freo losing this? Also freo lead inside 50's 54-45. I know they are inaccurate tonight but come on. Gee it would be nice to skip the country for the next month and a bit. This finals series is not going to be enjoyable. Full of teams I cannot stand. Ugh
