95% humidity during the game.

Absolute lunacy that this game is going ahead.

It's no wonder only the desperate clubs chase this dragon.

Next weeks opponent will be licking their lips watching tonights game.

Are we allowed an extended bench for this waterworld extravaganza?

Have you even bothered to look at a weather forecast or is just your aim to shoot off your mouth at something you disagree with?

It'll be lucky to crack 50% humidity there today the way things are going. Geez, it's not the middle of the bloody wet season!!

    Ok so your expert advice is that by game time it will be 90% humidity? I am up here and it does not feel that humid. And yes I too have experience of the tropics.

    then you should know the humidity goes up at night.

    I hope it doesn't for the players sake. They are a very important asset.

    Surely you jest wyl!

    Our lot an asset!

    50% of them are a liability.

    Yes it does but not that much. The biggest problem is a slippery ball.

    Big outs for Brisbane. J.Brown and M.Golby are out.

    Kent is our sub.

    If we are as passive tonight (this arvo) as last week, we'll get murdered.

    Meek, mild mannered, temperate Melbourne.

    I mucked up my alliteration.

    I don't know if I just had rose coloured glasses on but I didn't think we were meek and mild mannered last week. I just though Geelong were that bloody good that even though our players busted their bodies to win the ball, Geelong just had that better poise and ability to smash us.

    You're probably right.

    I just got really [censored] off at Johnson's knee into Nate's jaw and none of the players remonstrated.

    Kelly playing up to the crowd, trying the impossible snap.

    Bartel doing whatever he liked.

    Half arsed attempts at tackles.

    Geelong didn't even pretend to show any respect to their opponent.

    Oh, well - maybe because they don't have to.

    Interesting team line-up on the AFL App. Seems a better structure than that in this morning's papers (Kent is the Sub.).

    Up Here on the NSW coast with Mrs Frankie, the son and heir and the two daughters (to be fair, also heirs to the frankie_d fortune). No tv and no radio so relying on this thread and Twitter. I have a VG bottle of red which had already been put into service.

    Go Dees !

    Can we forgive Dunn for missing a handball in these conditions, or missing a target when kicking across goal ?

    NEVER

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
