I don't rate Melksham at all; whinging, pathetic little [censored] who pretends to act tough. Waited all year to see Viney clean him up with a bone-crushing tackle. Was disappointed to see him out and replaced with an unknown.

Well I am sitting at home with a bad cold. Fire on, ugg boots on. Demon dogs lying on the couch with me under a rug.

My kind husband went to the Prahran Market to get me some jam donuts so I can pretend I'm at the footy.

Go Dees - I really dislike Essendon and hope we tear them apart.

Everyone at the G - keep warm. I applaud you all going out in this weather.

I am feeling excited and confident about this afternoon.

Go Dees.

I'm absolutely packing it on the way in.

I really don't have faith in us; the weather should draw the two sides closer and that really worries me.

It's going to come down to a battle of who puts their head over the ball and wants it more.

Back in the days of Swooper and the Reverend, I remember going to the footy and expecting to win. Many years have passed, and my nerves aren't up to this favouritism stuff. God I hope we put them away which and their heads drop, otherwise I might have to call in at the Epworth on the way home for a reboot!

Rain stopped for the moment. Not a huge crowd. ..snow must be good lol

Oh God - Dwayne Russell is commentating on Fox Footy.

Agreed frankie, hoping we hit the scoreboard hard early and put serious doubts in their minds.

The only positive I'm taking out of the weather is it'll make it slower and harder, and that means our lack of run post-Darwin won't be so important.

If we lose today tho...

I had every intention of going before I found out my Myki ticket had expired and I had nowhere to get a new one. What a great system that is.

That's pretty poor on their behalf. How are they supposed to raise revenue by charging you $6 for a card that costs ~20c if they don't make them easy to buy?

Don't worry J02, just keep one eye on dland for a clear unbiased commentary!

We will need to start well here. Can't let them try and forget about the result last week too quickly by giving them a few early goals. In this weather, any sort of lead is massive.

It's partly my fault because I did get an email a while ago to say it was expiring but I hadn't used it since so totally forgot.

They're $6 because they have $6 credit preloaded on any new card.

Tuning in from Washington DC. First chance I've had to watch a game of footy in the four or so weeks I've been in the states - Hope it's worth staying up for! Go Dees.

Commentators calling them the baby Bombers, apparently 12 players with less than 40 games.

Looking at our side we have 10 or 11 under 40 games too. Bet they don't mention that

What did we do to deserve this?

Perhaps a left field initiative to get people to go to the game?

Funny thing to say but we look the bigger side out there. .even ss thinks that. Lads look sharp.

Lets see how we fare.

Almist time to go

Go Dees

All this talk of injuries for the Bombers gives me no comfort -- we beat Geelong with our worst injury list of the year.

Ah, right. Wasn't aware of that - was lead to believe when I bought mine that there was no credit on it - I may have had my ears closed at the time though.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
