Spoke to Max’s family member this morning. She said he was unusually quiet but very much in the zone and very focused. Hope his team mates are there with him.

Go Dees ❤️?

    Wow.

     

    Can see at least 20 plus dees supporters at station.

     

    We are out in full force tonight!!

    I’m on a train full of Dees supporters. Everyone is upbeat and chatty. It’s a nice change.

    I don't know what to say.

    I don't know what to do.

    I have no insights, no analysis, no words of wit.

    Nothing.

    Not nervous, but full of anxious energy. A shower then off to the G.

    Will get nervous if the game continues to be close the longer it gets. But [censored] it, optimism here, looking forward to attending my first Dees final in 12 years.

    Will be there in full voice tonight. Hope for an overwhelming Dees crowd, and an argument or 2 with [censored] supporters!

    A benefit of being on the Sandringham line. Im carrying a spare scarf for a Carlton supporter that sill be watching the game with me and another mate. A condition of supplying extra ticket was that they wear a Melbourne scarf and face paint. 

    Lots of anxious energy, need a drink.

    Anyone outside the G, how busy are we looking?

     

    Wondering if there's time for a few quick pints ?

    Morrison, Findlay and Chamberlain the umpires tonight.

    Gus's mate is a plus, ?, but more importantly no bald pr!ck tonight

    Melbourne supporters outnumbering Geelong in the CBD by 20-1. I've seen more Storm supporters than Geelong.

    My life in a nutshell.

    Just got into the members now. Massive turnout which isnt a surprise.  Jones, brayshaw and salem came out for a walk and everyone turned around and cheered.

    i'm surprised about how lacking in nerves i am

    just genuinely excited

    As I

    Ive no idea what the outcome will really be but I SUSPECT we'll win and it'll be well deserved.

    I think we'll have a real crack at this  as youd think...but some teams get the yips and do rabbit impressions.

    Absolutely game on tonight. The boys are hungry...but they have some calmer heads directing the team energy.

    Quite , and quietly, confident we'll avenge our own Demons.

    A Friday night in Alice, always a lot of shouting from the drunks in Todd river, well tonight I reckon I am going to put them to shame, I pity anyone wanting to go to sleep living within a 100m radius

    Just warned the neighbours!

    Apparently even if we lose tonight, we are still in with a shot. At least according to Slobbo we are.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
