Whispering_Jack 31,368 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 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.
Chook 15,080 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 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.
sydneydee 703 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 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.

CBDees 3,167 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 A 100 point win would do us quite nicely today Boys!
Brownie 6,086 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 we can't be worried about percentage next week. ten goal win makes the equation simple next week
Gorgoroth 13,220 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 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.

jane02 3,796 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 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 ❤️?❤️?
Sir Why You Little 37,476 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 Do The Job Demons. "Use the Force..."

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.

Mr Steve 3,820 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 First job win. Second job remove percentage from equation.

deeflog 679 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 Be ferocious demons and really make a statement today
What 18,810 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 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!
doc roet 1,302 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 News headlines tomorrow DEMONS POST MASSIVE WIN BRAD SCOTT RUSHED TO HOSPITAL- suspected bowel rupture.
DemonLad5 1,642 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 I have the most annoying Carlton supporters at work. Will be depressing if we lose
Lil_red_fire_engine 11,387 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 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.
Deemented Are Go! 3,704 Posted August 20, 2016 Posted August 20, 2016 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!
