The dawn breaks and we're first up today at the MCG.

Our opponent has an extraordinary number of top 20 draft choices on its list but, as we well know, that doesn't necessarily mean anything.

This game is at our home and, as much as we broke a hoodoo when we beat them in our last game at Etihad, it's time to reclaim the MCG as our home against these northern invaders.

So jealous of everyone who gets to watch today. 

First game of the season is always so exciting, the hope it brings is like no other. 

Hopefully I'll wake up tomorrow to a great first win and some delightful highlights of Oliver kicking 4 goals.

Go Dees!!!

I have that nervous first day of school feeling I used to get as a child. So much potential and promise for the season ahead.

Gotta hold the influence of Shaw. He starts so many of their attacking waves.

And Nathan Wilsons run out of the backline too.

Best to keep your sugar/alcohol levels up .

I don't want your energy to peak or decline before acceptances.

My foxtel dosent get here till the 4th of April (if its on time) so it's Corowa's anual Easter Saturday Billy kart races for me. Believe it or not it will probably get more heated down Sanger St than at the G today, lots of swearing and throwing bottles, its a great family day

Got woken by the girlfriend after very little sleep. She wants to go and look at houses to buy. Adam's got a short fuse now and he's writing in third person, so we'd better hope the MFC put up a good showing, otherwise it's going to get messy in the MCC.

I am predicting Jesse Hogan to redeem himself in a huge way, 14 marks, more than half contested and 6 goals straight in a dees 27 point win.

Is swearing and bottle throwing mainly by the kids on this family-friendly day? Or is it more an all-in event?

Go you good team,

Tear'em a new one Dees, Ward off these northern pretenders.:)

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
