doubt many decent people will bother to turn up, but you never know

But we have a winning streak at Etihad. 

One of the best things to come out of today's Foxtel coverage is that I won't have to listen to Brereton, as he's doing the GWS / Lions game.

Dazzle said he's going, and Saty also. There's 2 so far.

I hope they take the time to catch up and discuss the players over a few froffs.

They could call the game together. A Bill Lawrie / Tony Greig type partnership.


Roof will be open. Cloudy day, I guess the sun won't be a factor. 

I'm going to try and sit on level 2, just need to try and avoid the Etihad fun police.

You can have him. I have to mute the television when he's on, which bugs me because I like the crowd noise. Can't stand his long tirades about a simple point he could've made in 7 words or less.

Also, we're up to five on the Dees fans there today. I'm making my first appearance at a game in Melbourne since 1996. Let's do this.

 

The game hasn't even started and the crap between some of you is already boring the absolute shite outta me.

I used to love listening to Dermie, but now find him unlistenable.  While I appreciate some of his keen insight, the waffling, maniacal laughter, and self-absorbtion is too much.

When he's commentating on a Hawthorn game it's amplified and officially unbearable.

No, I won't be there Bob.  I don't do Etihad.  Especially in the preseason. 


Teams are in:

I'll be there - been waiting too long for footy to come back to miss this one.

There was a decent crowd last time we played the Saints in a NAB challenge game but not sure what to expect given the time slot of 4.10 and how that works for everyone today.

Looking forward to seeing the new recruits in the red and blue and seeing Oliver in the flesh.

FB: Jetta   Garland  O McDonald

HB: Salem T Mc  Vince

C: M Jones  Viney  Grimes

HF: Kent  Hogan  Kennedy

FF: Watts  Pedersen  Garlett

Foll: Gawn  Tyson  Jones

Int: Oliver Bugg  Frost Harmes 

Maybe nominal sub in case of injury/after half time: Michie, Wagner

I hope we learn from Richmond  and have all 24 available so we aren't overtaxing anyone in case of injury. Plus I'd love to see Wagner get a full run but the coaches might go with Oscar Mc. I'd probably make both available really, just a matter of how close to round 1 conditions of 22 only they want to go.

WooHoo - Jeremy Cameron reported

I didn't see it, but it is worth one game.


Todays game is fairly important even thought its only 'NAB CUp'

Final tune up before the real stuff starts and we are playing the Saints,, a team in a very similar position to us in their development.

Lets belt the pricks.

Just watched 15mins of bris v gws,15 mins of my life I wont get back.If we cant beat rabble like that I will give it away

Head high on Rhys Mathieson. Medium impact - knocked him to the ground.

GWS player before first round - reprimand.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • PREGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
