If you are on Flight 1503 to Hobart from Melbourne this morning the flight has been delayed until 12.10pm meaning that you'll miss the start of the game.

I've cancelled my attendance.  Interestingly I've received nothing from Qantas - they have my phone number and email.  Their phone service was still saying 10.30am departure (at 8.15am) but the website says 12.10pm. 

Rang 131313 and they have promised me a full refund within 10 business days without argument.

Very disappointing.

The 10.40am Jetstar flight JQ707 has been delayed by almost an hour. We're now at our third gate. If it gets much later, we'll have to cancel as well.

    All this talk of North tanking has me worried.

    It was nominally the equivalent game to this last year, that Max stamped his authority on the comp.  Melbourne supporters would have already knew he was a gun, but his performance against the reining AA ruckman Goldstein that day really made everyone else take notice.

    Maximus looked like he was starting to get back to that sort of form in the first half against Port last week (before he rolled his ankle and couldn't jump).  Given his picked, I'm assuming he's good to go an would really love him to get back to top form today.

    Expecting a much better game from Jack Watts this week.  His game last week was pretty ordanary to say the least, but watching the replay, he still contributed a few handy score involvements.  And because he's Jack Watts, he still would have taken one of Port's best defenders allowing others like Melksham to get off the chain a bit at times.

    If Jack wins and controls the ball into our forwardline today and we could be in for a good game.

    Last time we beat nth Jones was playing his 4th game. We owe nth and we have to beat them today. I will be so disappointed and angry if we drop this. It's time to stand up and win well today.

    I just read that the Matildas beat US for the first time at 28th attempt. An omen perhaps? 

    Why not

    Due to the tanking allegations North will be playing with everything they've got today.

    I'll be watching my brother play footy today, so in lieu of being part of the gameday thread I'd just like to make this clear for the afternoon:

    I hate North.

    Strange, someone on one the other topics yesterday was certain that their would be 2 late changes (can't be bothered going back and finding out who it was that said it).

    Between 2008 and 2013 I lived 200m away from Arden st oval. I used to take my footy down there and have a kick, take my dog for a s*** on the wing, watch training and wear a Melbourne hoodie. I hate that club. I used to think that if I tortured myself enough I was somehow helping the Dees, you know "doing my bit" 

    It hurt living so close to that cesspool 

    Time to repay Melbourne

    Thompson andTarrant will probably take T-Mac and Hogan so Watts should be able to play on a young, inexperienced defender. Bloody hope he takes advantage of that

    Picket Fence.

    One of my favorite posters cos he a total nutter and his posts make me lol, but I knew as soon as he posted that I knew there would be no changes. 

    Take picket for his comedy and passion, not for his sources.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
