Its not even 10am and I feel like i'm going to vomit. Imagine how the players feel!!! 

You're not the only one...a kid two seats in front of me on the SkyBus had a power-vom into a plastic bag just as we were leaving the airport. I'm not a religious man but I was praying that the bag didn't have any holes in it...

I have been struck down with swine flu (apparently that’s still a thing) so won’t be able to attend my planned event this evening. On the flip side I didn’t have to spend 8 hours pretending to work today.

Hopefully Melbourne’s own swine pig hibberd plays a blinder tonight and we smash them off the park. Not sure my tv will survive another close loss to Geelong, especially if I have to look at Tom Hawkin’s [censored]-eating grin too many times.

Beat my best friend swimming today. Made a bet though, if we win he will buy me a string bikini and I’ll wear it our next swim! (Gulp!)

If you're not reading The Roar, here is another article

I'm just getting into the website recently, and it's an enjoyable informed read.

Here's a preview of tonight

I quite like the Roar! I know it's an obvious thing to say, but it's different haha

Great read, thanks for sharing :-)

I'm LOVING all this press we're getting. It's nice to be relevant again!

Sounds like you will wear it anyway. We will win just to make sure of it.

Not sure about everyone else, but I'm really relaxed about this. No idea how I will be feeling between 7.50 and 10.30.

Can you please post this again for a bit of fun but in the rational alternative Game Day thread?

Me every day this week so far: Let's just enjoy it and see how it goes.

Sums me up perfectly too!!

I note a number of posters are feeling nervous about the game. I'm not concerned at all - we'll win.

I am however, very nervous about the large crowd and subsequent queues to get booze. The notion of the dees winning and me being unwillingly sober is very uncomfortable indeed.

A hip flask as emergency supply Bbo? 

I am more concerned about getting away after the game.

Same!!! Our servers have been down until 10 minutes ago. I was thinking I could do a sneaky and get out early and go drink to calm my nerves. Back on now. Absolute balls!

Absolute balls for sure! Had it have happened now that might have been enough to get out of here!

Off work today looking after sick kids. Honestly, I think I’d prefer to have gone in. The day is passing soul crushingly slow.

I'm feeling much the same, on both counts!

The big game getaway is the worst, but it will be infinitely more bearable after our win!!

You have my sympathy Nasher. Baby sitting the GD's was on tonight but I have a leave pass. The down side is I now have zero credits in the system.

Just got to melb, grab something to eat, what time would be safe to get to the game and get in with a bit of time to spare? Is there any pre game stuff?

Posted (edited)

I’m that nervous I’m giving myself an ulcer.

I can’t even listen to SEN or read the sports section of the papers anymore coz I’ve had enough of all the talk.

Bloody long two weeks.

Being a Friday night, chances are Carlton is one of the teams in the curtain raiser.

Really liked how much phyaical pressure the team has put on the opposition the last few weeks in particular.  We come out like that from the first bounce tonight and it will go a long way to winning the game.

GIVE THEM HELL DEMONS

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
