    A poll on the Punt Road End site has 47% saying Melbourne will win by a 21 to 50 point margin....

    I'm not sure I am comfortable with this..altho the bookies still have the Toiges as favourites

    Not sure why they're favourites with the bookies, we've won the last 3-4 vs them, we're in much better form and have a clear advantage in the ruck/midfield. 

    from what i can see we win unless we play a shocker.

    you can be as cynical or optimistic as you want, it still has zero influence on who will win the game.

    Petracca is listed as an emergency, so there is time on Friday or Saturday to release a video of him calling his mum or dad telling them he is now playing. Announcing him as an emergency stokes the interest in this game and who's in or not.  All eyes will be on tomorrows training. interesting the mixed feelings it brings out, do we want Jeffy to have another week off, or want him in possibly at the expense of Petracca who we have waiting so long to see run out in the red and blue.

    Jones came off in the final minutes last week and on radio they said an injury. I thought they may have chosen to rest Oliver when we play the GC in a few weeks time. 

    Wow wasnt expecting Christian to be named but it would be great if he did play. 

    I hope we get a great crowd and the melbourne fans turn out. Would be great if we could repeat last years effort.

    I hope CP5 plays.

    Was it Thursday or Friday last week that the club uploaded the video of Hunt ringing his mum??

    No such video of Petracca yet.

    Petracca doesn't have a mum, he was created in a lab.

    I half don't want Garlett to get up this weekend...

    It's weird - Garlett is one of my very favourite players, and I had the same thought.

    Pedersen, Hunt, Kennedy, Garlett as the bench. Not that bad.

    If Garlett doesn't get up, we bring Petracca in. 

    I like where this club is going.

    Now to ensure we don't do an Essendon. A corner can be turned this weekend.

    Mate have you not read the Mahoney comments..

    Quite simply he said that IF Garlett doesn't get up tomorrow Petracca will make his debut. If Garlett passes a fitness test then Tracca does not play.

    Seriously not hard to work that out...

    Roosy just said Petracca won't play unless Jeffy doesn't come up.

    They wouldn't name Petracca in the extended squad if he wasn't playing.

    Yes, they would.

    Petracca doesn't have a mum. He was developed in a laboratory.

    Will play? But it's touch and go?

    I might contradict myself, but at least I don't contradict myself...

    I doubt anyone knows if Garlett will play yet, it all depends on tomorrow's session.

    My man says he's fine but the club is playing all injuries cautiously, I guess because we have depth to cover atm

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
