Hopefully Port win so Dees don't have to tank.

 

[JackFlash]

Ride a red & white swan by 25 points

 

[Power Raid]

swans in an upset - 17 points

How would it be an upset, this game is a dead rubber for us and we want to finish 4th.

perhaps because the dees are a better side but for the reasons you highlight an upset is likely

 

[melbun]

Demons in an upset by 74 points.

 

[The King!]

Melbourne by 33

 

[BG32]

I reckon by the time this game comes around the Dees will know their week 1 opponent, so no injuries will be the winner

 

[timokane]

Melbourne in the battle of the cities Dees by 10 points

 

[Eshay187]

Swans by -5 again

 

[TheBigPavallova]

Hopefully Port win so Dees don't have to tank.

I'm banking on a turnup.

Reckon the Dees will not turn up, after ensuring the top 4 spot. A bit like last years back-half.
Oliver was useless last game, and the Swans mids will take it to him. I think the Swans will win the midfield battle.

The wide spaces of the SCG will test the Dees defence. Papley to kick 5.

Carlton to close up the percentage.

 

[MF]

I reckon by the time this game comes around the Dees will know their week 1 opponent, so no injuries will be the winner

Certainly wouldn't hurt to rest a few as a precaution. Possibly just Gawn, Oliver, Petracca and Lever as late outs. Maybe 11 or 12 others.

who says?
I'd rather play Brisbane in Brisbane than Collingwood in front of 90k fans with Daicos and Moore back.

 

[footy75]

Dees should be resting Petracca and Gawn. 0 to play for.

Sydney

 

[Cudi_420]

Port to lose.
Melbourne to beat Sydney by 7-8 goals.
Melbourne beats Brisbane in QF by 3 points.
Melbourne beats Port in QF by 8 points.
Melbourne beats Collingwood by 12 goals in Grand Final.

You heard it here first.

You must be joking.

Why do we have to play two qualifying finals?

I think we will strategically rest some players for this one and put in a professional 3-4 goal loss.

We know who the form teams are heading into finals, and certainly know who they're not. They say it's dangerous to flirt with form, but I think we can focus on thing we want to work on and allow some 'leakage'. I wouldn't mind us playing with a heap of dare to see what score we can put on without worrying too much about defence.

I'd be with one of the other posters in that Papley will cherry pick and get cheap goals out the back, he'll kick 5 and Swans win by 18 points.

 

[danster168]

You must be joking.

We typically play very well Away. We typically own Brisbane in the past if you exclude last years final. On the flip side, we typically play poorly against the pies excluding the one game this year and our MCG form is neither here nor there.

 

[Scythe94]

Except we're 11-2 at the 'G and 4-5 away from it.

 

[Danw0w]

Wouldn't the dees want to finish third and get the Brisbane trip out of the way? If they finish fourth and lose week one, then they are destined for a prelim at the gabba.

 

[demondavey]

I honestly don’t care. We want to win going into finals. Melbourne should win the flag again this year.

why the confidence? we're not even playing well. poorly in fact.
