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

We noticed that too walking from the station to the G.

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

I don’t mind Slobbo from what I see of him on 360, but he really is a moron!

    i reckon we outnumber them 2 to 1 at the moment insane no ski trips this year

    itll be a long season anyway...plenty of snow....

    We can wear our premiership scarves as we shuss the pistes ;)

    All week, and even today, I've been telling everyone that I'm not nervous about the game.

    And I'm not, I know that we've got this...

    ...But, holy hell - I'm about the head off to the G, and I'm feeling like a week's worth of nerves is about to be crammed into the next 1 hour and 50 minutes!!!!!

    There’s about to be a whole lot more Geelong fans in the city. The train from Geelong is about to arrive and it’s packed.  Very few MFC supporters here. 

    I am lying absolutely still listening to the rain up here in Sydney.

    So calm, so peaceful. Except for the continuous feeling like someone has, just accidentaly, not very hard, kneed me in the balls 30 seconds ago.


    Bring.

    It.

    On.

Man o man I have missed This feeling!!! I think I’m about to go completely troppo! GO YOU [censored] GOOD THINGS!!

    PS is it just me or does anyone else get a tingle up the spine every time they walk into the G?!!

    Slobbo must have had an 11am liquid lunch after those predictions.

    About to sit down and watch it in Perth, very excited its been a great week.  First final in 12 yrs (Better than my last attended final match in Perth v shockers).  We have been playing good finals type footy the last 2 rounds, far better than when we played the cats each time this year. Stick to our system and let our talent show, and burn those cats.


    Can't move on Swan St for Melbourne supporters. So exciting.

    Just got to the MCG. I see an awful lot of Geelong jumpers in our members' area already. Pretty sure you needed a Dees membership to buy these, so how did they get access?

    another gil's friday night blockbuster...............................but why no carlton?

    Should be a lightning premiership tonight. Carlton, Saints, Gold Coast and Freo. 

    Would be much more entertaining than Dees v Cats. ( and better for TV ratings too )

     

    Well I am now sufficiently relaxed prior to the game. 

    God bless Bundaberg Small Batch rum. 

    GO DEMONS RAISE HELL TONIGHT AND MAKE US PROUD. 

    I've been like a kid at Christmas all day.

    The only problem is I don't know if I'm getting a lump of coal or a new bike tonight.

    Go 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?
