Been a long time since I've seen us take on the cats at the G. Hoping for a competitive effort from the boys. Kent to be the sub. Hopefully Tappy can show some of his VFL form. Geelong too classy.. Cats by 23 points

Going to be a tough day at the office id say, important we play 120 minutes we can't lapse against a team like this

 

The Cats haven't been playing well for the last month or 2

They almost lost to the Dogs at home last week

We can win this game

Watching last nights game. How good was it to see two teams attacking, playing open style footy and scoring. I reckon we will restrict Geelong to about 10 goals, but they will win by 5. I am going to Bendigo to watch Casey, hopefully win. Just don't like the style of footy, although I realise that we need to play the ugly Roos brand at the moment. Hope Tappy has a good one.


Samael, my cousin is playing his first senior VFL match today for the Scorpions. Can you give me a report on how Dale Gawley goes?

Yes I'd love a win, but want to see the boys have a red hot crack, will be interested to see how we pull up from last week.

Leave nothing out there boys never forget how they have treated us for the last 8 years and never forget James Kelly simulating a snoring sleeper when singing the song after beating us at Kardinia Park in 2009(I think it was)

Go Dees

Check out the Scorpians game day thread.

Good luck to him!

Holy hell we have a Saturday afternoon game! WHAT? It's a home game as well. I know the afl won't be happy but I can actually use my membership and go to the game instead of watching it on tv.

Agree, would love to see them play with the fire that they did earlier on in the season. For whatever reasons have appeared flat for a few rounds now. Would love to get up today and see the boys have a red hot crack!

Hell no we are way better than that no more than 180.

Seriously when you consider the two sides they have a top four list and we have a bottom four one.

8 to 10 goal win to the cats however we had better start well or it will be ugly..


Im rapt that we finally get to play them on our ground. Lets hope the rain stays away and we get a competitive game.

Hopefully these annoying showers don't deter people from showing up.

This is one of only 4 home games we have all year against Victorian clubs, and it's the last one too. Need to drag a decent sized crowd to this one to remind the AFL that we deserve a better split than 4-7 in our home games.

Terlich is sub.

So glad we are playing them at home rather than at Geelong. With this wild weather we would be lucky to score one goal and they may score 15-20 goals at exposed Skilled stadium. At home we do have a chance for an upset.


says on the tv guide its on 7 mate televised at 1:30 here in albury and there is some other garbage show on..!

is the game televised?

 

Dunstan as usual on the money in his pre- game assessment. Reckons the emphasis has to now be on good use of the ball and lessening turnovers.

Chip back. Dunn forward

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
