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?

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
