Could mean they will leave the roof open.

North lost to Geelong last week and may lose to GWS today, but again they have come to play. No excuses for lack of effort from us today.

Even the Tiges have turned up......

I love the air of quiet confidence that many posters have going into this game (it's been a long time since we've seen that before a match against the Cats!).  For whatever reason, I've shared this confidence all week, and it's been reinforced by the decisions made around the selection table.  It's impossible to say that our lineup isn't weakened by the MRP 'lottery', but I love  the competitive look of our team today.  I really think we can win, and have the the football world start talking Melbourne in a serious vein.

I'm not at all confident Deeoldfart- never was never will be. The glass is half empty-I had better fill it.

Not wrong about filling it, AFL must have shares in BWs I got half a slab and a couple of Guinness cans but I'm nearly out and game hasn't even started...

Watch for the bandaged head diving to the ground particularly in the last quarter if its close.

I'm set for the game. I've thrown a couple of stubbies in the fridge, I have Half a bottle of Laphroig in the cupboard and some Cold Duck for the celebration afterwards.

Arrived home yesterday morning after a couple of weeks o/s. Was wide awake at 2am this morning which gave me a chance to get up and watch (and delete) the recording of last week's win. Foxtel also had a the 2015 R12 game on at some ungodly hour in the middle of the night...happy days!

Could be sound asleep by half time.

Ed: Ken's Dream is the favourite at Caulfield (R6). I'm loading up.

Missed the start by two lengths and still got up...happy days indeed!

For anyone interested (anyone?) The Irish stout went in well, perhaps pitched the yeast a little too hot but will be ok. Smelt amazing so am assuming in a couple of months it will be, like the mighty demons, unbeatable.

Kit, only my third batch but I can see where this is heading. Steeped grains and also mixed brown sugar, molasses and liquorice extract.

 

All grain will be next experiment

Can't go today but will be trying to sneak a few glimpses on my phone.

Any late changes? How's the ground?

Hope we can roll them! Oliver for another 30+ possession game and Petracca to fire up and kick 4.

Will only be able to watch the first half as I will be dining out with a couple of friends.

I am hoping that the result will be decided in our favor by then!

    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

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    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

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
