I love a beer, but hate a hangover like the one I have now.

Lost my phone last night.

Heading to the ground with my youngest (nearly 3) today for her first AFL game. She has her demon backpack packed already and is packing her snacks into little ziplock bags, never seen her so organize

I really want Melbourne to win too make a bad week a little bit better. My 88 year old mother is currently in hospital after having her appendix removed on Monday.  I will be visiting her on the way t

It is such a perfect day here in Melbourne for good footy. 

Like so many, l have learned to restrain and contain any sense of confidence. The scars of failing to do so are many and deep. 

Yet somehow l have lost my strength today. Against an  injury ridden Doggies team with the Bont (who broke my heart at Dome all those years ago) out of the side and Boyd, l sense a very big win. 

Our blokes know the score from here and know they have the talent around them. This game will be played above the shoulders and l think the boys will be determined to right their wrongs and make a statement. 

Dees by 63 (or my last scar from the Saints game will bleed me out). 

By the way, it is really great to hear so many going out of their way to attend today. It will be a small crowd but let's make a lot of noise. Good luck to us all. ?

At the MCG where we struggle and lost to the Saints just two weeks ago.

Today, aside from a a win, I want to see a modified gameplan that works on the G'.  It will take us to the next level.  Its kind of important to be able to win on your home ground.

I'm finding it quite therapeutic.

It'll be a different story on Monday when I advise the boss I need another phone.

And the ground where most of the finals/grand finals are at... HUGE problem if we don't find a way that works there, and quickly.

Going to the game but not sure if its possible to walk away happy. A win doesnt help our chances of making finals because I can't see us beating any teams above us on the ladder. Another game against a bottom 8 team proves nothing and the loss to st.kilda still hurts.

Yeah it does.  

Unless you meant a loss doesn't help our chances of making finals.

Congratulations Doc, you old fart!!  (You're just shy of 3 mths older than me!) 

Used to love you thumping the ball out of CHB to set me up for some of my goals back in the day!  We were part of a great team back then.  Here's hoping the new breed can replicate it! )

Have we got Razor again? Surely not?!

It’s ok, my wife’s family all support dogs and hate razor more than we do (and think he hates the dogs in return) so it will be quite the conundrum for ‘ol (insert favourite insult here)!

Rayza Ray was a contributing factor to the Bulldogs 2016 run into and during the finals. Loves a Bulldog. 

Never said my wife’s family weren’t completely one eyed which of course they are. Still think they got a bad run in 2016 ????‍♂️?‍♂️?‍♂️

All good she has her flag which she will no doubt wave at every opportunity and if all else fails nothing like an ice cream to make it the best day ever for a little one ???

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    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
