Yep. This is where we see where the improvement has got too...

With more than a nod to the great Chuck Berry

Somebody help me get out of August.

Just help me get to final’s town.

And I woke up high over AFL headquarters.

On a jet to the promised land.

Swing low chariot come down easy.

Cut your engines and cool your wings.

And let me make it to the telephone.

Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin’.

And say the poor ‘d’ boy is on the line.

Waiting for the dees to come home...

    Jekyll and Hyde, rather fitting for Melbourne. 

    Dees by 64. 

    Oliver with 37 touches and 2 goals.

    A good test of the learnings from the Collingwood game from last round 2017.

    Are we all talk?

    If we lose by 20? Yes.

    Not sure that the club is 'all talk' - they speak about the aspirations... rather than the entitlement.

    Excited about this one however stuck in hospital awaiting  MRI results to see if back surgery is required. Might be out for this game if I am I'll be having demon dreams of tommy mac and jessie combing for 14 goals and us winning by 67 points

    Shame the Crows, Lions and Port didn’t get up yesterday (especially as they were all in it at one stage)! It would have been nice to see the Giants, Pies and Eagles all go down! ?

    @DaisyDeeciple  - is there somewhere I can watch in the morning in your adopted city? Which I won't name, lest I derail this thread with my humble-brag.

    Tbh I am packin my dacks about this game. 

    I really really want to win and in the process shut up all who crap on about us no beating anyone significant and failing on the big stage. 

    The time has come Melbourne.

    Just got up with the small people, playing Lego to pass the time (is it weird that I enjoy the Lego more than them?), can’t stop thinking about the game, going slightly ???

    No. This is completely normal. My kids are still on Duplo - can’t wait till they’re big and dexterous enough for real lego!

    Hehe, I found a box of LEGO that I kept from the 80s and unleashed that on the pests... I mean children the other day. Then I jumped on eBay and bought up a few vintage sets that I always wanted as a kid and never had! Did I take it too far good doctor Dee?!

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
