Did you see us last week once it started to rain?

We probably should have given Jimmy bartell a 3 year contract instead of Lewis, if we're going to fallover to pieces whenever it rains :laugh:

It was wet last week so we hopefully have learned something. I expect we will put in a strong showing and cause an upset....maybe because we have nothing to lose. Reminds me of the Adelaide game last season where we followed up brilliantly after a lame effort against the hawks. Then again we blew it again the following week. Need to bust these boom and bust cycles.

If we're winning and the game is in the bag, and the crowd flashed on the screen and it's 87k+, I expect all Melbourne supporters to cheer as loud as they can.

weid could be a worry if it slippery ?would like fritter in late change

The FD should seriously reconsider Weids.  Fritsch much quick/cleaner by hand and a clean pair of heals in the wet.

Tracc takes on the role of Weids.

Late change pls

Looking forward to tonight's game and how the team responds.  If we come switched on, it's a very winnable game IMHO.  Had them on the hop in the corresponding game last year, when we lost both a ruckman and key forward in the first quarter, only just being overrun in the last quarter.

Hmmm , strategic visits to the Gents and the Bar will be required. Will be difficult to avoid rubbing shoulders with Tiges Tribe.

I think we'll struggle badly tonight. A hard tackling team that plays at high intensity around the ball is not what we like. Richmond's current playing style is built to demolish us.

I imagine we might start fairly well after last week's embarrassment and then fade under sustained pressure.

So who do we think plays on dusty in the goal square. Hibberd? Jones follow him all the way? Shirley not Vince?

    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.
