Heading along today and very happy to be there to support Jonesy in his 250th - he deserves a lot of thanks for sticking with the club and helping turn everything around over the last few years. 

Me to DW cant wait to see Jonesy chaired off as winner and BOG

Geez, looking at the Doggies team again... by far the worst team we have come up against this season (on paper).

Amazing that they won the flag before last.

From 7th though, I know it’s hard to fluke a flag but geez only needed 4 good games, but they had to travel twice so was a great effort but no way were they the best team that year, I think they miss picken the most he is there heart and soul type like viney is for us

Im at the nursing home this arvo. Luckily we have big screen TV's in both lounge rooms, and enough footy supporters amongst the residents to "demand" the game is on.

Anyone who complains will be plonked in a wheelchair and taken to their room for some "quiet time".

I will also be hiding the remote control to foil any bids to ruin my day. Most cant walk anyway, so as long as no visitor makes trouble, it should all be ok. If not, nurse grumpy will complain of Gastro symptoms and hide in the loo where i can live stream radio. I never get disturbed there as im the only male nurse. All good !!

 

GO DEES !!!

I will not be going today due to the venue. If I wanted to be enclosed by steel and concrete then I would get a job in a factory.

Besides that, congratulations Nathan Jones, go Dees!

Steel and Concrete? You are limiting the venues you can attend Emerald.  Brunswick Oval probably gets across the line for you!?

is it wrong to go to a game now thinking its in the bag? In the past u would go to a game not knowing which Melbourne would show up.  

Im a little nervous because if its the wrong result today id be so shattered for jones. 

It would be great to see us just get off to a flyer like last week, my wish for today is no injuries a good win and the game be over by 3/4 time so we can enjoy the final term and celebrate jonsey

The one major thing in our favour today is the ruck.  Gawn should feast on the carcass of Tom Boyd all day long and give us first use.

Their forward line has also been a major issue and our backline couldn't be in better form.  All signs point to a big win, but at the same time we aren't going to win every game by a big margin.  I'd take a very solid 6 goal win with no injuries every day of the week.

Not too sure there is concrete in the Docklands stadium roof.... the G is concrete and steel as well. 

I’m on the V-line in from Woodend and can’t wait!!! There was a 6yr old dogs fan on the platform, I nearly pushed him over and poked him in the eye.

Bad omens already have interrupted my normal pre match routine. Arrive at train station to find that replacement buses have been organised. Now stuck on a bus in traffic. MFCSS is ruining my life.

Just spoke to someone in our ruckmans inner sanctum. Max did not pull up too well after Wednesday’s training. Bad headache, bit of photophobia ( probably courtesy of that hit to the head in the second quarter) but appears to have slept it  all off and now feels a million dollars. He is convinced they will win well today. Losing has not crossed his mind.

Laughable excuse.

If it was about price then I'd understand. Doesn't sound it. Have you ever been to a stadium before?

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
