The forecast is for some rain in the afternoon which shouldn't worry us greatly. In fact, for a club that has stood on the edge of the abyss so many times in the past ten years, nothing should worry us.

The experience of being in contention this far into the season is something we should savour. This is a glimpse into our future.

 

 

Win. That's all there is to it.

Win today and the Melbourne Football Club stays alive until the very last game of the season. That's all a supporter can ask of their club.

 

Feeling both excited and nervous about today. A 10 goal win would mean a massive build up to the Cats game however I feel like the blues will want to make a statement. 

Need big games from Oliver and Petracca  with Hunt to take out the rounds rising star nom.

A 100 point win would do us quite nicely today Boys!

we can't be worried about percentage next week. 

ten goal win makes the equation simple next week

This game will tell us a lot about this team. 

On paper we should win, 

To stay in the season we must win.

To give us every chance to make the finals we must will well.

 

This will tell us what players have the mental fortitude to make it in a good side, this will show us which players will drive us to the next levels. Our attack and desperation at the ball and the player with the ball should be much higher than Carltons.

Our willingness to help out our defence should be at its highest it's ever been.

It should hold up, I got the hairdresser to make it extra permanent.

I have woken up with a mixture of emotions this morning - excitement, nervousness, wonderment (that we have got through this strange season and still might be finals contenders) and above all hope that the stars are aligning and the outcome is positive for us all.

I am off to do some yoga now where today's intention will be not about world peace but for a Demons win.❤️?

My Collingwood supporter husband is coming along with me to the game decked out in red and blue - he dislikes Carlton immensely so he wasn't hard to persuade.

Go Dee's ❤️?❤️?

Sadly I am unable to attend today's game Ethan, or I would have awarded you the honour of supplying my alcoholic beverages pre, during and post game.

How disappointing for you!

However, if you see a toothless bloke in ill fitting Demon clobber you should buy the sheila he is with a drink.

Yes, Ethan made every effort to alert team management that he was going to p!ss all over a gas station.

Any statement the Blues might want to make pales into insignificance compared to the one we're trying to make this week and next.

I hope his "credentials" are up to snuff.

Be ferocious demons and really make a statement today


Biggest game in a decade.  

We must win...  it will make next week and the lead up the Cats game amazing...  everyone will be cheering for us to make the finals and knock out boring old North.  We will get so much positive press all week and we will officially be a footy club again.

Come on Dees get it done today!

News headlines tomorrow

DEMONS POST MASSIVE WIN

BRAD SCOTT RUSHED TO HOSPITAL- suspected bowel rupture.

I have the most annoying Carlton supporters at work. Will be depressing if we lose 

 

Just focus on our attack on ball, man and spread and the win and % will look after itself. It would be very easy for a young side to take in the plaudits of this week and already have an eye on Geelong (as some on here have) or focus on winning big rather than the process of winning. Another good test for our senior leaders to lead the way. 

Let's remember it's (possibly/probably?) Roosey's last game at the G.

if nothing else, Dees, turn it on for us to thank the man!

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
