One week at a time, that's all we can do now. A win tonight and we continue to march towards finals. A loss and we will have to beat the good sides they are all saying we can't.

Love the optimism. 

Go Dees!!!! 

5 goal win

Adelaide have a bit of payback in mind. They'll come out hard. We just need to be in front when the final siren goes.... oh wait

 

Working tonight which will require some strategically placed bathroom breaks for the occasional score check.

Dees by 19

Salem as smokey for BOG

I the wait before the game, gotta find something to do to keep the anxiety/excitement at bay... go dees!


I have no confidence at all. Scheduled a "date" tonight instead so I don't have the disappointment of watching another ''crunch match" loss. Did the same thing last Saturday night.

Hopefully when I check the scores I am pleasantly surprised. 

 

hogan needs to lift. for a big guy he falls to ground far too easily and stages for frees. tmac is twice the player and can kick much straighter.

dees could win but i doubt it. crows by 42

good luck mate. maybe you will at least score tonight ;)

 

Logic says that we should comfortably account for a team we beat by 91 points only two months ago, but logic and reality live worlds apart for the Melbourne Football Club and its long suffering supporters.  I still haven't read last weekend's post match thread and I don't intend to, but I desperately hope that I will be inclined to read today's.  Just get it done Dees ........... one point will do!  Surely that's not too much to ask in return for my patience and loyalty.

The poor bugger is double teamed when in the forward line however when opposition teams go forward their forwards are one on one!

Goody needs to clear our forward line right out. One on ones against Hoges, TMac and Jeffy and/or Tracs and Clarry occasionally would be a nightmare for any defence. We just have to maximise the skills that those guys have. The problem is, we don't. Most of the time our forward 50 looks like an under 10's game.

I doubt that line will have any bearing on the result DF.

i was talking to someone at the club on Monday and they said being a Dees supporter is character building.

My reply was I have all the character I can handle just bloody win.

After that it is hard to see us winning since our last meeting they have a number of there players back from injury and we have ours out.

rule 101..There is NO logic in football


In breaking news the AFL Spuds Association have given the Melbourne Football Club an award for their services to re-igniting the careers of many of their members. The Association President and previous Spud of the Year recipient Tex Walker says the award is well deserved and is looking forward to being the benefit of a similar service tonight.

Kent Kingsley is surely a life member of this association. 

The Crows are aware we dont handle pressure, and (we) are starting to become desperate. They also owe us one for the hiding we gave them earlier in the season. If the game is close in the last qtr, i can see the MFC panic setting in again.

An Adelaide win keeps them in with a chance of playing finals, and almost puts us out, considering our run home.

I have no confidence that we can win tonight. 

Crows by several goals.

Draw.

Dees by 38 goals (points...lol) V.confident!

T Mac 7 goals... ?

Clarry 40+ handballs (poss...?)

Vandenberg too play... ?

Gawn... Unstoppable... ?

 

This game will be tough. A vastly different team to the one we played earlier in the year.

Our midfield will need to look after our defence for 120 minutes, otherwise, Walker, Lynch, Jenkins and possibly Betts will get a hold of our back line. 

Win, lose or draw, I'll continue to back em' in but this game is pretty close to being do or die.

Let's go Dees!

Sorry Demonlanders, I cannot see us winning tonight.

I don't think we will get ourselves up to play 4 quarter football to beat Adelaide at home.

Crows seem to be building with all their good players back, will have the crowd and no doubt the umpires behind them.

We will need our biggest effort all year to beat them tonight.

Crows by 14 points

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.
