    This game will showcase both Goodwin's coaching prowess, and Melbourne leadership capabilities.

    Pushed around by the Cats for more than a decade; we've lost pivotal games we should win; and we appear to struggle when applying plan B.

    We can either play to Geelong's game, slow it down and hope for the best.

    Or, we can back ourselves in, play aggressive and attacking, and trust all 22 players to do what's required.

    This game will either be a turning point and propel us into finals, or it will hit us hard like a freight train and signal a spiral. This is an absolute MUST win.

    Absolutely on both counts.

    Goody must resist the temptation of having our 2 best (of those who are fit) mid fielders in Clarry &  Brayshaw play in any sort of run with / tagging role if we are to win this .  as we should.

    Provided Goody doesn't tagg as per the above and the umps don't murder us for much more than about 2 quarters....

    Demons by 35 Points.

    Well I done my pregame warmup.

    I have had 2 wines and 8 bundy rums and still counting. 

    I have always said that an alcohol voucher should be included in the MFC membership pack. 

    Make us proud Dees.

    The biggest break we got so far for this game is the weather. Dry and mostly calm. If we had most of all of this weeks weather of rain and wind we would have no hope down there.

     

    Ok so I can't go tonight but can someone tell me if they just rocked up at the gate and bought a ticket? Or do they not allow that and you are forced to buy a reserved seat at a ridiculous price.

    Carparks already full. Great conditions. Nice and calm and not too dewy either.

    Can get GA at the gate as it won't be a sellout.  Need a bank loan to afford any other tickets for Kardinia Park.

    It would be massive if we win this. Can’t see it happen but we better give a good hard showing

    Suns just beat the Swans, no excuses tonight. We are either good enough and want it more or we’re not.

    I can.  Feeling very confident about this one.

    The ground size suits our style, and Geelong are mediocre.

    Don't feel confident about this one - or even the next few for that matter: Lever, Viney, Hibberd out, a step too far.

    I'm scared to watch.  Such a huge game.

    (I've copied that in notepad to use for the next 5 games too.)

    Treat it like a Final Demons. Be prepared to hurt for victory. 

    Every Player must be prepared...

    the most nervous i've been for a game this year.. totally do-able, but also, we could fall apart. COME ON DEES!!!!!!!

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      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?
