And Freo maybe - they have a tough run though. Wishful thinking.

We just need the Bombers to keep winning too
Yep, plus no Viney for an unknown amount of time, and considering its a reoccurring injury i doubt they'll rush him back. So a second 3 game losing streak could definately break them!Fun's over after today though. Only 1 more certain win for them v GCS.
Will still need to play very well just to make finals.

You know what position we are on the ladder right?Yep, plus no Viney for an unknown amount of time, and considering its a reoccurring injury i doubt they'll rush him back. So a second 3 game losing streak could definately break them!
If we had 2 x 3 game losing streaks in 8 weeks i'd consider us broken! Hell 1 x 4 game losing streak saw 80% of this board wanting to tank the season!
1 game out of the 8 last time I checked!You know what position we are on the ladder right?

If trying to tip the winners in the last month has taught me anything, its that there will be many more upsets between now and the final game of the regular season! I think to date there are a few teams that have performed well above their talent level, and a few that have performed well below. And a lot of those teams that have outperformed their predicted ladder position are now starting to feel the pinch of a 23 round season. So it will make for quite a fun last few months before finals!2 games out of the 8, seeing our percentage is too far to be made up (+20%).
It's still nothing more than mathematically possible that we do make finals.
Mathematical possibility is when you need other results to go your way, we are completely in control of our destiny, just like at the beginning of the season, if you win enough games you make the finals.2 games out of the 8, seeing our percentage is too far to be made up (+20%).
It's still nothing more than mathematically possible that we do make finals.
Considering the draft implication its actually fascinating to look at the path to finals or lack-thereof for both the Demons and the Crows.
MFC is sitting in 6th (10 wins) to the Crows 11th (8 wins), and a massive 31.5 %. Based on the old 'win 13 games to make finals' saying, who do we feel is most likely to achieve that Win total?
The Run Home:
Melb: Geel Away, Crows Away, GC Home, Syd Home, WCE Away, GWS Away
Crows: Bris Away, Melb Home, Port Home, GWS in Canberra, North home, Carton Away
Come on Melbourne, give me that sweet sweet late season choke that we all know you are capable of. Just 1 more for old times sake!

...Viney out for a month
Yes, I think they are a good chance to drop out.My tip is Melbourne to lose to Geelong, Adelaide, WC and GWS. 50/50 game against Sydney. Thats 12 wins at best and out of the 8.
Don’t cancel that snow lodge at Mt. Hotham just yet, Dees fans.

top 10 pick still on the cards even if we play finals which would be vital to trading up for Rankine.
Michael hibberd quad strain. Probably a good 3 week injury from experience.
Viney out for 4, Lever the season.
Wheels are falling off for the dees quite nicely.. top 10 pick still on the cards even if we play finals which would be vital to trading up for Rankine.
Hopefully by the time they play us, Gawn and a few more others will be missing with nigglesHe is a bigger loss than Lever. That is huge.

The good news for us is the equation is pretty simple now. They just have to win!
