Not sure about that. He might be poisoned or slammed for taking illegal substances at his next urine  test.

    Going early.

    We're a cert.

    We always match up well on them and we're even better this year.

    Essendon gave us the fright we needed. I don't think we'll ever play complacently when we should win again.

    I think this game is more about the tigers then us. 

    We've seen over the first 4 rounds when teams press up on us in numbers (v essendon, gws and even v pies) turnovers will kill us due to lack of composure and experiemce.

    If the tigs go head to head v us - as per the 1st qtr v pies and north game, I'll be bloody confident our boys can beat them. 

    Hence why i say it's more about the tigers. If they csn take it up to us its going to be tough. Mind u if we dont turn up that could be an issue too. 

    I wouldnt be too confident yet dees... Some key ins for the tigs and if they take the game to us.... i am not going to be as confident.

    Where do they rank for contested possessions? I know their ball movement aint flash at the moment but Deludio will help fix that.

    This weeks game is all about which demons appear the team that looses games. or the team that wins games. We have the chance to go way beyond two in a row with the saints and the gold coast before we play the dogs. All are winnable if the good demons turn up to play.

    Underdone Maric and Delidio. Interesting way to go with limited rotations. 

    Lids won't be playing will he?

    Maric and Astbury to return.

    We lost to essendon.......we shouldn't be taking anyone lightly.

    Until we win 2 in a row I'm sceptical. That being said, this game is very much up for grabs.

    Lids won't play, they'll be concerned about the ruck battle, underdone Maric and Vickery will hand us a significant advantage.

    How many years is it now that Vickery has been underdone for?

    Beating the Pies was enjoyable, but for me Richmond is the scalp I want. Their supporters continue to think they're part of something special. I want us to smash them and help them understand that they're part of nothing.

    Round 23, 2015 and Round 1, 2016 - both against GWS.

    Doesn't count IMO.

    Rounds 13 and 14 2011 is the real answer (funnily enough, the second of those two wins was against non other than Richmond).

    Well-balanced Tigers supporter.....there is an oxymoron for you!

    I like the philosophy that Roos and players have spoken about several times recently, that it doesn't matter who we're playing, we now believe we that our best is good enough against most, so we're just focusing on producing our best.

    Wasn't Astbury injured against WCE?

    Yeah he was, my bad. Injured his ankle may play again on Sunday. Was listening to 3AW / SEN whilst driving home and that was mentioned at some point.

    To give you some idea of what Tigers posters are saying about the Dees on Yellow and Black, I give you this gem:

    "Have Dusty rucking against Gawn - the latter will be too [censored]-scared to contest"

    This is only one of a number of equally stupid comments. Let's hope the team is just as delusional

    Haha, this sums up that idea.

    • 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.
