GAME DAY

Featured Replies

Posted

ANZAC Day eve. Listened to the Sunday rub on triple M and Jay Z Clark spoke about how this game is a little look at what the AFL want to do with the grand final and I couldn't agree more.

This is fast starting to overshadow the Collingwood Essendon game tomorrow in my opinion.

I think everything is primmed for us to come out breathing fire tonight and we need too. 

Hopefully the Weed gets a game and good luck to him. Weed and Lever could be book ends for the next 10 years.

Speaking of which I think tonight Lever will show why we paid so much. BOG.

Dee's by 2 points in a classic.

Let’s hope that we come out primed rather than primmed otherwise we have faint hopes of beating them by two points. Frankly I would like to see us score our winning score courtesy of the classic “kick after the final siren”!

Go Dees!

 

Going in after work. Really like what we have done with this game. The pre game tribute is fantastic.  

Have no idea what to expect. The previous years u go confident of a win but then u think we are playing last years premiers and we are coming off a rubbish game.

If we win people will say why couldn't we do that last week and if we lose well it will be reported as typical Melbourne. But i hope hogan takes rance to the cleaners.

I'm a grinch.     I just hope we score.


Nice to have a game to talk about after that nine-day sookfest we've just had.  Demons by a few goals for me.

Although I doubt Rance went in for an extra prayer session with the Jehova’s - he may face a double nightmare with The Weeeeed having a breakout 8 goal performance. And Hooogann! Running amok on the ball and sloting forward for 4 goals. 

just hope last week was a bad day at the office and tonight we will see a team seeking redemption. Tipping a draw.

 

Wow 

Gameday

Im in town for the game tonight. Where go people drink before and after the game?

After a 9 day break my loins are aching. Look forward to the boys cracking in and both teams putting on a great contest. Melbourne to win by 2 goals in a see-sawing contest. 


If Jones is assigned a tagging role again I'll be spewing.

Paying so much attention to individual players is not a good strategy when you've got to take in the whole game as was evidenced last week.

Outgunned in the box again?

Tiges by 27 pts.

Bugger. Light rain is forecast apparently due to start around 4 pm. May impact (1) the crowd size, (2) the pre-game ceremony, (3) quality of the game, (4) the result...all negatively (for us).

Official forecast:

Partly cloudy. Slight (30%) chance of a shower late this afternoon and evening and the chance of a thunderstorm tonight. Winds northerly 20 to 30 km/h becoming light in the late afternoon then tending southwest to southerly tonight.

Hi Dippy you asked where people drink b4 the game.

Depends.

Melbourne supporters somwhere claasy.

Tigers fans in their cars on route to game

Many options in richmond, all will be jam packed. depends on your type of place you like, Ive tried them all.

The Cricketers on Punt road, nice old fanshioned joint

The London - big beer garden

City-wise the Duke of Wellington on flinders is alright and i think affiliated with the Dees. 5% off your drinks if you are brave enough to show your membership


Rance to get another fine for belting the weed in the back of the head.

Wet weather is all the more reason to play Fritsch, the boy does not fumble.

Totally f'd selection decision. 

He must have looked at someone the wrong way :huh:

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
