GAME DAY

So I step out, run my 8kms, shower and get back here ... to find zero enthusiasm for today's contest.

What did you guys do last night?

Party?

I think I'll do the ironing whilst the game is on, that should take me to about 10 mins into the second quarter then I'll go do other stuff.

We should be 8-10 goals down by then.

 

Not looking forward to today's game. I dislike Geelong with a passion and see a 10+ goal defeat coming up. hoping to see Watts and Toump build on last weeks performance and Tyson to find some form

I try to be positive each gameday but I am finding it very hard to achieve that state this morning.


we shouldn't be getting smashed by a middle of the road side but we will.

To save time can we have all the excuse now.

We will get them one day soon as more and more real footballers arrive at our club. The gap between us and them is reducing.

I'm heading down today to watch my first afl game at skilled..

Absolutely gutted Hogan is out.. Just hope we are there abouts at 3qtr time..

They have a few injuries.. So who knows..

Jones will have to kick 3 today and have 35+ for us to have a sniff..

Hoping Toumpus fires again!

 

2-3 goals per quarter better side than us......for today...

Cats to win by 40+ @ 1.90....hmmmm....got a lazy fiddy lying around.

I'm watching the game in the background today. Family afternoon tea at 3. I'm saved.

The gap is reducing....except for today, it will expand.

An honourable 120 point loss coming up. Geelong are a well drilled team with some up and coming young guns.

For your sake, and the others who are making the trip, I hope we put up a competitive effort and come home with a win.

If we had our round one team in I'd be much more confident.

My dog ate our midfield.

It will be carnage. Odds on Geelong (head to head) on Sportsbet are 1.11. I got on at 1.15. Easy money.

I've only ever bet against us once, but we won, never again.

It did kill two of my neighbours cats.

thats not enough

Budge. I'd rather lose my money, but betting against Melbourne slightly eases the pain. And pays for coffees/muffins etc.

I'm actually looking forward to going to ikea today (cant believe i just said that).

I went to a bar b que last night that was mainly full of South American expats. (the 'lads" got me an invitation) Anyway it was bloody freezing so I was wearing my Demons scarf. A couple of the gauchos engaged me in conversation and asked me, incredulously, If I actually followed Melbourne. When I replied in the affirmative they were very sympathetic and asked me how much I expected to lose by this weekend. These guys know bugger all about Aussie Rules and follow soccer. FMD!


We are less capable to cover a deep injury list than they are. Even with Kelly and Bartel out they have better mature players and leadership. Put their best 22 and our best on the park and the gap is much reduced. Put the named teams out there and we should hold our own at the contest but will struggle to retain the ball and when we go forward have no one to kick a score. I will be focussing on intent and further improvement from those that are in our future plans rather than the score as I cant see how we will kick one.

I think we will be more competitive than is generally thought on here. Not really just feeding my delusion. Not going to the game today just going to watch it with some mates so we can cry in private. At least it wont be like the last time we all went to the cattery. Worst part was coming back by train after the 186 margin. Smug cat supporters with their fake sympathy.

 

Actually dreading having to watch this game, wish I didn't care so much so i could do something else. Worst thing is its on free to air and the only game on today so everyone will be watching the massacre

Actually, it's only on Foxtel.....still won't save us.

  • AFLW REPORT: West Coast

    Melbourne’s response to last week’s heartbreak was emphatic, as the Demons delivered a statement win over West Coast at a windswept Casey Fields. All of the pre-match hype surrounded the coach’s box matchup of Mick Stinear up against his apprentice, Daisy Pearce along with the gloomy weather forecast. In the end, it was less about tactical chess and more about Melbourne’s relentless execution. With rain looming, the DeeArmy and early birds snapped up the best undercover viewing spots.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

    Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.
