Gee I wish I was in Darwin to get some warm weather. Would feel more confident if this game was at the G.

I wouldn't.  We suck there and they beat us there last season.

 

Melbourne by 363 points

59.9.363

I did during the week. I think we're a 50 50 proposition. $6 against MFC is insane

Its tempting but then I'll enjoy the game less if we win. The alternative might be to not watch live and only watch replay if we win.

Must be a tough bugger to live in Trentham

Nice people but worst Football team I ever played against

Nah Mums tougher (Hi Dad? (he gets on here a bit))!

bloody cold in winter, so the olds are thawing out in Darwin for a long weekend ?

Players up in Darwin must be watching the Casey game thinking "thank Christ I wasn't dropped this week". Polar opposite conditions.

That’s just silly, we’d need 113,361 inside 50 entries. 

Most likely not gonna get to watch this one to my annoyance. Come on Dees. 

I will miss the bulk of the game. My wife has organised dinner out with an old friend of hers (who, frankly I don't really like ) How can wives be so thoughtless ? My next wife might be better on that score. 

 

I'm strongly considering not watching this game. Please convince me to switch it on.

I’m currently hydrating on VB and will

head off to the ground soon. There will likely  be a pub stop on route. It’s rather hot atm

Im pumped over this game. I’ve followed Melbourne to Sydney, Canberra and Darwin previously and never seen a win

I’ll break the ice tonight 

Sadly the maid remained at The Manor so my celebrations will probably be a solitary affair - still they can be quite enjoyable

Eat some “off” food immediately

Better to be home in the smallest room watching a feed than being with the wife’s friend

I'm taking care of the manor for you ( the maid let me in).

Some of your cellar needs updating so I'm helping to clear out the old stock.

Also, the maids outfit is a little bit formal for my liking so I've bought over a French frilly number for her .

Please don't barrack too loudly-you'll mozz the team as you tend to do when interstate.

Don't hurry back-just send her wages through plus some extra house keeping money.

I'll keep her busy .

How in the front doors are the Dees $1.12 to win this match? Similar odds to last week...the books are usually very switched but this one has me stumped.

Do yourselves a favour and put $50 on the purples...be happy either way...

You’re just being vindictive and trying to spoil my well earned break

”The Lads” would never allow one of your status admission to the hallowed Manor

The lads are roasting up nicely. Unfortunately someone bumped into the Merc whilst I was putting some essentials on your account at the grocer.

Freo's odds have ballooned out to $7. Ridiculous.

The last time Melbourne's opponent had odds of $7 was Round 23 last year. I think we all remember what happened then!!

Even though I'm from the Macedon ranges I'm always shocked when I visit mum in malmsbury and it's inevitably cold. 

Very very cold

Bitter has risen in Katherine 

I shall end my perilous outback odyssey in Darwin this afternoon and make a grand entrance at the football this evening 

I expect the team to be inspired by my presence and thrash those Westralians soundly!

Inn Katherine Bitter's, uncle?

 

tonight's garb, uncle ?

I have never gambled on footy, but it is seriously tempting to throw a few dollars at the Dockers.

We should win, but we should have won several times lately. 

Thats how they make there money.

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
