I have a small suspicion we might hit the Wall in this game... to be honest, I can forgive Melbourne for losing this one. Still, that won't make my screaming at the TV any quieter tonight :P

Only a Victorian would think that a game that is being played in WA might be listed in Victorian time.

Or an entire Victorian sporting club. Count-down clock on the MFC website a case-in-point.

Not long got to the ground, took my seat and had a cheeky little sip of spiced rum out of my flask. A Weagles supporter turned around and told me I wasn't allowed to bring it in. I took another sip and stared at her before telling her she was ugly and she shouldn't have been allowed in. Hopefully I last the game.

Some random points to remember for the gameday thread masochists threatening to microwave their memberships should we happen to be trailing at half-time.

Melbourne have the highest low score this year - 75 v Richmond when we ran out of puff due to injury.

West Coast have recorded the equal least second-half quarters won (9) when they run out of puff due to age

Contrast with Melbourne with second-most - 17 (and a game in hand). 

We still have by far the lowest losing margin of 12 points. Always in it.

I've backed us tonight which would be pivotal to my push for top 3 in my tipping comp.

Very surprising considering the betting movements. 

Maybe there's some insider knowledge of word from high up that we're now the darling side of the AFL and the umpires are not to screw us like they usually do.

Im expecting a frustrating loss tonight. But we'll beat the swans next week

Great work WJ.

i don't think anyone has ever written a poem about Perth before, and with good reason.

In addition to our own Poet Laureate, Ethan , there's also a few by the other great West Australian poet John Kinsella - most notably his "Perth Poem."

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
