The cards are unsettled today, my friends. The minor arcana hint at difficulties with opposing forces, and the revealing of the Chariot was perplexing, to say the least. The adjacency of the Hanged Man and The World could suggest a fast, open game but, then again, when The Magician appeared, could it imply a slog, with too many defensive roles for an attractive game.

Dees by 13 points.

Whoa, that's deep man.

WE just need to win. Simple as that if we want to stay in the top 8. There midfield concerns me with the lack of midfield we have with our 2 leaders out. 

Hope Jesse does well, and I want to see Lewis and Bernie show some strong leadership today. 

Also no undisciplined acts please. We cant afford to lose anymore players. Come on Melbourne!

Bolton keen for the players to ignore cheapshot FC & play disciplined footy. Should send the whole team out wearing helmets

I have the same feeling I had going into the North Freo and Hawthorn games games on our home deck we should win. Hopefully a different result

Lose and we'll finish bottom four. 

That's the stuff Ethan. No wishy washy half arsed comments.

For these reciprocal games at the G, where do our members usually all sit? Behind the goals at the city end?

[Dingo 1,158]

Yes hehind goals city end

You could be right 

[ignition. 1,478]

I think we have them covered in both our forward and defensive lines. I am however concerned about the midfield. Their midfield is in form and we really need Oliver, Petracca, and the old boys (Lewis and Vince) to fire in order to neutralise Cripps, Gibbs, Murphy, and Docherty.

I'm currently away so I'll will be watching from the couch. At least I have my fishing rod on standby for if things go pair shaped and I need to calm the nerves (my second religion).

1 hour to go......

[shorty 233]

Need a big one from Clarry and Max. 

Least that spud Curnow won't be scragging us today?

On would and up would.

Let's get it Done Dees!

[Lucifers Hero 40,439]

Surprised to see Petracca on the starting bench:  Christian Petracca, Billy Stretch, Cameron Pedersen, Josh Wagner

Hope he doesn't get stuck there for 12 minutes like Clarrie did at the start of the Sydney game. 

Would prefer he starts on the field - we need the best possible start from the first bounce.

Agreed. How often is MFC a goal down after 1/2 minutes? Answer: too often.

Dean Kent to silence all those who have written him off.

23 possessions, 7 tackles, 4 goals

[leave it to deever 17,546]

Saints win over the tigs was huge. I thought it may be saints dropping out but they have shown they are a real contender.Must win today. Our destiny is there for the taking.

I feel sick 

[buck_nekkid 6,054]

Every game is 'season defining'.  Teams are roosters and feather dusters every other week.  Craziest season of football.

dees have to keep winning.  Find a way, boys.
