MFC Fans Only Non-Dees AFL Discussion - 2017 - Finals. And yes , again its non Dees discussion

[PerfectFooty]

I actually had a feeling he'd sign on

 

[Bazza97]

It's funny that a lot of the Tigers' posters were so confident of getting him and thinking Miles and either pick 15 or 16 would get it done. Sucked in Richmond.

God I hope we play the tigers in a final this year.

Sydney coming back into form? Great we got them in round 15, fantastic. Bulldogs on the rebound next week is even just as good

You want to be a good team then it shouldn't matter.

We beat Adelaide on the rebound on their own dungheap. After they got flogged by north. I have no fear about taking on a good team after a big loss. Why? Because it means we don't start favourites. It's games like the one against Collingwood coming up that keep me up at night.

Doggies looking a bit slow and not cracking in as hard as last year.
Reckon they play a style of game that would be difficult to back up week in week out.
Few holes appearing too. Bont is cruising and JJ was weak as piss last night when it got tough.
We should be hunting them hard next week to prove we are on the up.
Looks like we'll be getting Sydney back at their peak which is stiff but it's at the G on a Friday so we should give ourselves a chance there too.
All this being said, we'll lose both

Do note we get a 6 day break and they have 10 day break

Yeah that's true.
If you're good enough though, that stuff shouldn't matter too much hopefully.

I'm looking forward to when we're a top team and we get those sort of fixture perks ... rather than our 3 consecutive 6 day breaks with a trip to Perth thrown in.

We won off a 6 day break against GC who came off the bye, also beat the Crows coming off a 6 day break. Doesn't mean shit.

I can't remember the last time St Kilda won interstate

 

[TheCount]

I can't remember the last time St Kilda won interstate

I don't think they can either. Pretty sure last year they not only lost every game interstate, but they were completely smashed each time.

 

[PitchBlease]

I say this with all respect due to Ling as an accomplished player and premiership captain, but is he capable of speaking without a star player or team's balls resting neatly in his pharynx?

Hawthorn round 6 this year.

Hawthorn round 6 this year.

forgot that one, wonder when was the last time they beat an interstate side on their own deck then to be more precise

They beat the Lions at the Gabba in Round 9 2015, and also beat the Suns at Metricon in Round 2 the same year.

 

[TheCount]

They've fixed their pressure up this qrt St Kilda, but they're still thoroughly outclassed.

Thanks, couldn't be assed going to afltables to look up the saints

 

[Crimson Azure]

Again, someone please remind me how we lost to the hawks

We go to 6th with a win...

 

[Bazza97]

We go to 6th with a win...

Big opportunity for us in the next few weeks as well. Play the Bulldogs and the Eagles after that who we will overtake on the ladder if we win this week so these next few games are going to be interesting as we can beat all of these teams, it's just a matter of whether we have the consistency to do so and history this year says otherwise. These are season defining games in the next few weeks, I'm aiming at the very least to win 2 out of these 3 games.
