Even the Demons couldn't blow this game. Dees by 50 points.

You underestimate Melbourne's ability to snatch defeat from the Jaws of victory.

Eagles by 56

 

[danster168]

can't believe we lost to this basket case of a club. But as soon as we did, I knew the season was over. good teams don't lose to west coast

 

[Zevon]

Melbourne to set up a match-winning 83 point lead in the third term, then cling on doggedly to win by a goal or two

[Wosh]

Eagles by a LOT

 

[YeoGabbaGabba]

can't believe we lost to this basket case of a club.

Since 1965, Melbournes won 1 flag (at Optus in lockdown) to Eagles 4 flags despite Melbourne playing an extra 22 seasons in that time. Who’s the basket case?

 

[Cam Payne]

Hard to tell which team I want to lose more. Melbourne for danster or WC because:

Melb by 6.

 

[Seattle Mariners]

Melbourne to win by 11 points and go goaless in the second half.

Lock it in.

Well, hasn't the young messiah vanished, in a puff of his own smoke.

Like a magic vacuum, he's sucked up his own backside. And Yeo has done as well.

Melbourne by an easy 7 goals this week.

 

[mrmonkey]

O.6 is as good as a goal

 

[Dee Train]

Dees by 83.

Eagles by 37.

First game of the year playing with a Red footy in Melbourne, sad reality of the times we are in.

Sadly Danster has that effect on people.

You are. an 18 year old is your best player. And yes, we won the flag by finishing top of the ladder, not getting any home ground advantage for any of our finals and still won by 70+ in the granny and 60+ in the prelim. Imagine trying to pretend we weren't the best team
I love how you say 'since 1965', considering we won the flag in 64. hahaha. How about since 2018?

 

[YeoGabbaGabba]

How about 2018?

Imagine trying to pretend we weren't the best team

When did I say this? - I pointed out it was won at Optus, which is one of the 2 Non-Victorian GF’s - and since we were talking about “joke clubs” I thought that was pretty funny lmao.

Yes - you would’ve still won in 2021 regardless of where it was played, and probably should’ve won another one since but instead have lost 4 straight finals, all on the MCG.

Loosen up

Editing my posts now are we. You think I wouldn't notice? I said 'Since 2018'. Just like you said 'Since 1965'.

Yeah we lost due to injuries, and lack of conversion. And only lost by a goal. We didn't play horrendously. Granny's are hard to win.

 

[420]

Dee's JUST in a horrific affair IMO

MCG regulars, what areas are defined general admission for this game?
Previous years, sat in level 4 undercover which is great to avoid any winter showers.

2nd, Round 1 against the dogs was a Sunday 1:10pm

 

[Couch Coach]

What sort of fcuked up coach gives a young player a debut as the sub.
Then only plays him for ~5 mins.
Then drops him, only to be a late in as the sub again.
Then only plays him for ~3 mins.
Then drops him again! (against a team that has only won 3 from 15 games)

Go West Coast!
