So cold today...

Fly home for one match a year and today's the day!  We definitely start underdogs, but I've got a good feeling about this one.

Dees by 24pts.

Judging by the crowd,Melbournes fans are more successful ,urbane and sophisticated than any other team in the AFL.

Our female fans are the best looking in the AFL.

Port in the other hand look like they have just rolled up from a homeless shelter for the mentally deranged.Rough as guts .

Kochy can barely hide his disgust at his track suited cheer squad .

We are winning the fashion stakes already you will all be pleased to hear.

Thanks Biff

Every once in a while i go into a game supremely confident. We win this.

If we pressure them all day we'll win, going on their form this year.

JKH doing hit out warm ups with the other key mids & max. Might see a bit more of him through the middle

Yep pressure is the key.

This will be big if we get through. Two things worry me though. Five guys coming back from foot/leg injuries and Port, I think, are a very good side.

Give 'em hell Dees!

This season could be the making of JKH

He has a perfect opportunity to cement a spot in the side. 

Over to you Jay...

So jealous of u all who get to do this on a weekly basis. 

GO DEES.

I'm sure there is a gag here somehwere- maybe along the lines that he should have got some consistency in performance by now....

Seeing those white unis.... I am having flashbacks to round 1 2013!

Terrible crowd. 20k max.

What's the crowd like - looks terrible on tv but as we know the Melbourne supporters are located more in the northern stand than the southern 

Not a big crowd, it's fair to say

Yikes that's not good. Did Melbourne supporters just assume we're playing Sunday??

I honestly don't know what to expect from today's game.  Strong side on paper, who have played some great footy together this year, but the big unknown is will the in's be match fit.  We'll need to be on our game, or Port are the sort of side that could tare us a new one.

Good luck to Trenners, great achievement by Wattsy and really hoping we can pull off a win for them and our season.

We've got a decent team, plenty to play for, and no one is here...

Let's hope it's 20k MFC supporters and 1k Port

Filled up a bit in the last 5-10. Still only around 23k-25k.

God I hope viney isn't playing too early. 

MCC website forecast was 33,000

BBO is in heaven. Daisy Pearce just sat down in front of us. Took him all of 10 seconds to latch onto her. Had to prize her free with a claw hammer. Sick old man.
