NAB CHALLENGE: GOLD COAST SUNS v MELBOURNE

Featured Replies

Sensational day here on the Coast.

Light breeze, blue skies. Should be a good final hit out and a great day to watch footy.

 

The "seconds" were always played in Victoria, in winter. A big difference.

Only a moron would schedule a midday game in Queensland: presumably DimWitriou was involved.

only half the seconds games in vic were played in winter. plenty played in 27 degree weather as forecast today

dunno about qld but in vic the hottest time of the day (max temp) is late afternoon

still i agree that all nab and pre-season games should be played at night

What are expectations for this game??

I'd like to know from those focused on results what would be an acceptable scoreline.......

Like Pringle - my sentiments as well. I am just hoping for no injuries..

I simply asked as there has been a lot of discussion about results around here. I counted at least 6 of our best 22 injured (not sure who is rested atm) and I think we will struggle to beat The Franchise GC 17 up there.

Am very interested in this game - I do hope the boys prove me wrong

I know its not nice to come on and bag posters, especially when you are not a regular, but if you are giving comments, PLEASE give scores.

This site can be infuriating for remote viewers, who are more interested in score and player updates, than comments that add nothing to our knowledge of the game.

Sorry for being pushy, but some comments given during games are just pointless. "Jamar!" ""What a kick by Blease" etc etc.

Please remember that some of us are completely blind/deaf to the game, and our entire view of the game is what you guys type.

I guess im more referring to televised or radio games, but please give scores whenever possible.

Many thanks in advance, and i hope i havent offended anyone

Last chance to show what we got before round 1. I think we will be very keen to get some momentum going into the season. I see a big win coming, I don't think we will make the same mistake as last week and let them into the game (2nd quater v the saints).

Im predicting (hoping for) a 55-60 point win and I don't think we should expect any less!

 

MFC will be live tweeting from our game v Gold Coast in Southport at 11.30 am local time (12.30 pm VIC time)

Highlights and interviews will be on http://melbournefc.com.au post game and the replay will be up tomorrow.

Thanks WJ

I woke up this morning thinking, 'i hope we finish within 5 goals of this mob..'

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
