After the Melbourne Football Club was bundled out of last year’s finals with their Round 23 loss at the hands of Collingwood, Nathan Jones declared that the team would not forget the bitterness of that defeat.

Today is the day to atone.

Moscow Calling...

One of the advantages of being overseas is that in Mellbourne time you are up all night.

I thought it was very nice of the Socceroos to schedule their opening game against France during the MFC Bye.

FIFA was obviously scared of a clash with the Antipodean power house the MFC has become.

QB has always been special and it is even more so now because of Neale Daniher.

The Pies think they are travelling well but we know a team who is travelling even better.

Dees by 30 ...Go Dees

PS If you want to drop over to the soccer thread on Demonlands Other Sports forum I will be posting about my time in Kazan where the socceroos are based and where they play their opening match next week.

DJ, you must be really jet-lagged, a dangerous combination with the vodka .

The game was yesterday, we won by 83 points, Hogan kicked 8 and now leads the Coleman by 5 goals.   Fritsch was BOG.

The news will get there soon, comrade.

I wish my monster truck star for sleeping in till 6 incentive program worked on my son every day - he must sense the Occassion that today is.

awaking at 4.45am without a scheduled flight to Hawaii or France or to head to the snow is most uncivilised.

I knew I slept in but was never gonna beat that.

Gotta go to work but start at 6, work through lunch and knock off at 2 I should be laughing.

Can really see another 10 goal win here. I think we are a 5 goal better side than the pies and will turn it on today on the big stage.

Hibberd to have a huge one.

Game stsrts at 10.20pm here. 

Looking forward with trepidation.  We’ve played some fabulously exciting footy the past 6 weeks, but it seemed all opponents were playing poorly!

Hopefully we forced them to be poor, but I’m still aprehensive what will happen when a good team really brings their best game against us!

Off to sleep now in my part of the world. 7.20am game time for me. I will watch the first half and then shower and get breakfast ready during the half time break. Dees by a lot.

Two big milestones today.  Trac plays his 50th game, and Jordie Lewis , with his first disposal of the day, will hit 7000 disposals in the AFL.  (Who keeps track of that stuff??  LOL)

As I've said many times in the past, there's two things that bring me joy.  The first is Melb winning, and the second is Collingwood losing.  When they happen in the same game I am ecstatic!!  May today's game be the one!!

GO DEES!!!!

Beijing saying hello back, though in actuality I'll be on a train to Hangzhou whilst game on. Here's hoping the wifi works lol... otherwise i might be only able to check scores occasionally .

Pies won't be bucking the trend today. Dees by 13 in a tussle.

Work for me alas. 

But will keep an eye on the game. I wonder if the ease of some our victories will come back to bite today.

Our win streak will come to an end at some point. I hope it will not be today as it really does mean something.

Should be at work today... however I wrecked my back and have been on leave for 2 weeks, now I don't miss any of this game, happy days!

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
