Being competitive for the whole match will win us a lot of respect - especially since we are playing at their ground. I haven't seen the odds yet however, I reckon we will be around the $8.00 mark to win.

Cats havent lost at home since 07.

Am I correct in saying that the DEES beat them by 1 point that year? Or was it the year b4?

We hadn't won their in 13 years or something silly.

Sorry, it was Port R22. Carry on.

On Tuesday, Geelong were $1.05, Melbourne $10.00. *TAB Sportsbet.

it was 2005 when we beat them there, that was after we had lost the last seven rounds in a row, we won from 25 points down in the start of the 4th, the next week we did the same v the dogs to win from around 25 points in the 4th, then we beat the dons to make finals, as i remember all the dogs where watching the game hoping that the dons would beat as they all had a cry when we won, that was the most amazing time being a dees supported, in 2005 at one stage we where 9 wins 3 loss and second on ladder, we lost the next seven in a row, then we went to mission impossible in round 20, v the cats and won, we had to win the last three games of that year to make the finals, and we did we should never have won those games v the cats and dogs both games we where dead a buried until the last quarter heroics

It is a "Super Challenge"

yes and we'll have to be "super competetive"

But mainly "just fuggin get it inside forward 50"

I hope we play at our best, no, I hope we play the best we've ever played.

That way we might only lose by 10 goals.

All I'm realistically looking for on Saturday is a good showing from our backline, and for our forwards to convert every opportunity they gets, because I know our midfield is going to get smashed to pieces.

Received any quotes for your tatts, just in case ? ;)

Geelong Advertiser Front PAge.

From another thread but we can only hope that Geelong itself have put the white flag goggles on.

The game down there wont be easy but Sculgove isn't our team anymore.

True they and others have brought a new confidence but last week showed they are part of a much improved unit across the ground.

Hopefully the Cats wander into the white flag trap and turn up for an "easyWin" whilst we bring our A game.

Nothing would please me more than to see another defeated or almost defeated top team saying "we didn't play well today" underestimating what our group can do.

Lets see which flag is flying at the end of the day, I hope its grand.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
