Wouldn’t be surprised if Melbourne didn’t make the top 4 on there present form.

Melbourne have butchered some chances in this last quarter

Geez Gawn is destroying them tonight. Just manhandling them. He has very little support though.

Really emphasising that the Grundy money probably could’ve been better spent.

Is he the worst premiership coach in the modern era?

 

[Willsy10]

We are better than both of these teams.

Would it be a waste of a year though? If we finish below both teams with significantly less percentage and get beaten by both teams in the finals then it would feel like 3rd/4th prelim loser is just where we're at.

At some point in time we just need to win finals when not expected to. We haven’t managed to do this in the AFL, with 2013 being about the only exception, yet we’ve managed to choke away countless more golden opportunities. So to answer your question OllieKray, yes it would be a complete and utter waste.

Looking at the draw I reckon Lions outfit could win at least 5 more games after today and us maybe 4 including tomorrow and then we will be equal second and they will pip
us on percentage. Hope not though.

I am just taking this season one week at a time. Upsets happen, unless you are playing north or west coast wins are not certainties.

If they’re 3rd and 4th best then a Collingwood vs Port GF has to be a shoe in.

Not sure how you can make that judgement of Brisbane as if it is obvious.

There's clearly a top tier Coll, Port, Bris. Coll probably the only possible standout.

Outside that it's a mess of sides that are going to need something special to occur in September to contend.

 

[Willsy10]

Melbourne really should be closer, they’ve controlled the play this quarter but their finishing off has been awful. Forward line a mess.

In a year you've won 13 in a row, not making a GF has to be considered a waste. Surely.

We'll be third by the end of next week I think

Good. I would be scared if you were optimistic!

 

[Rising Power]

The rampant barracking for Melbourne by the commentators makes me want to vomit. But probably better for us if they win

 

[OneGreatClub]

Oh come the **** on Melbourne

 

[Coobk001]

Come on Melb!

I have the sound off.

 

[Coobk001]

Geez how good was that Rivers run.

 

[Coobk001]

Going to **** us over and miss this isn't he.

Come on Melksham

 

[Coobk001]

Yes!!!!

 

[Coobk001]

Draw is good for us too.

 

[gbear]

Melbourne in front by a point with 33 seconds to go.
