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.

    So decided to go to the game despite wife being due with our third today of all days! Young and Jackson’s chock a block full of Demons supporters, just got kicked out because my cousin is feeling a little under the whether (read smashed), just arrived at the G. 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: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
