Reading Demonland... Thinking we have lost by 60. We just beat Port at home by 40 for the first time in 16 years. Deadset guys.

3% reduction on North.  Another 3% each against the Swans and GWS brings them down to 102.5%.

Our % now is 102.58.

We just have to keep winning, a good win against the Blues would be handy though.

Port are probably in a better position than we are.

Us at home, Adelaide at home and Gold Coast away. Higher % too.

This is a huge game for them.

Agreed, but they were offensive last week and we were excellent.  I'm hoping that continues ?

I think we might need to be patient tonight.  Port, on their home turf and after last weeks 'effort', will no doubt come out breathing fire and looking to kick a few early goals to get the crowd behind them.  You can see the downhill skiers now - Wingard, Gray, Ebert, Dixon, Westhoff etc will all be up and about and I think it may take some time to weather that storm.  If we can do that, and limit some of that potential early damage, then we can easily get on top and run all over them as the game wears on.

So, if Port do kick the first couple, there is no need to go and jump off the Westgate Bridge.

Couldn't be better conditions for footy. No wind, clear night, no dew. 

Behind the g, adelaide oval is the best viewing for footy. Dees boys just walked off looking very confident, do not look intimidated at all. We haven't won a lot here over last 3 years, but we have taken it up to adelaide amd port each visit and won in 2014. Looking forward to it, go dees.

This is not going to be an easy game, I think we will win but we can't take it for granted.

 

After the Essendrug game i don't think we've done so. Just beaten by better teams on the day.

Still a very inexperienced unit so still expecting a few ups and downs. Hoping for the best tonight.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
