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.

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.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
