Who here is going?

As a local myself I'd normally be there but working west of Alice today. Raining out here, rain almost always heads west, might be a wet second half?

 

Think we will be to quick for them through the middle and forward jeffy to kick 5 win by 10

If we are to look at the game, I would say this is an opportunity for us as I don't like our chances the next week. We will be coming back from stinking hot Alice Springs against the reigning three time premiers. As much as I would like to see us roll those p****s, I'm not sure that we are there yet. 
A 7-4 record would be better but if you look at where we are at as a footy team, 6-5 would put us on track for what I would reasonably expect us to achieve as a team this year.

The same old stupid cliche is bashed out year after year by people who nothing beyond their own backyards. Currently a stunning cool day in Alice with a chance of a shower later.

 

A MUST WIN GAME TODAY ... Port, Crows and Demons will battle for that 8th position. Top 7 is locked in for me. 

If the Demons lose, back in the 9th to 13th pack.

Can Gawn ruck all day... he looked tired last week !!!

If we win and Adelaide lose (possible against GWS) then we will be a game clear in the top eight.

LATE CHANGES
Melbourne: Nil
Port Adelaide: Matthew Broadbent (gastro) replaced in the selected side by Sam Gray

Port won't be in finals contention. Imo Richmond will move up. Port is average. Makes today even more important.

cant see how the top seven are a lock ,teams fall away during the second half of the season ,like nth last night,just hope we dont our youth should keep us fired up.Go dees

Mathieson gave away a free and goal for a high tackle.

He'll make up for it.

I just hope we show up today. If our fast small forwards like Garlett, Kennedy and Kent have another invisible stinker like the Saints match, we'll comfortably lose. We're also certainly pushing the boundaries with such a young team every week, it's going to be inconsistent and you have to understand that means occasional losses to teams that aren't great.

Hopefully Jetta is well rested and does a number on Wingard. Hopefully we don't miss Oliver's hands too much, and hopefully our sloppy disposal last week was just a result of playing bad competition.

Go Dees! 

McDonald outbodied easily already.

  • 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?
