I'm not sure how this helps the players during the game.

Before the game and half time ?

and may be a feed to interchange bench

    I wish the MCC could set up a live feed, to Perth and fans could go to the G to watch the game?

    Great idea. Trouble is the cost to the MCC,  of having the ground open and secured and staffed. Then again if everyone paid $10 they could get thousands there.

    This is where we are disadvantaged by not having a home base.  Other teams can set up screens at Punt Rd, Vic Park, Western Oval etc etc etc.

    It seems the club is looking for a suitable spot to set up the live feed and show vision to the team. 

     

    Edit:  SEN just interviewed Mahoney and he said venues to watch the game:

    • Fed Square
    • Sporting Globe at Richmond
    • Sporting Globe Ferntree Tree Gully
    • Casey venue (didn't hear where)

    I guess vision to players will be from one or more of those venues.

    I hope it gets across the line! Nothing would please me more than beating Meth Coast.

    I wonder if Jeffrey! Jeffrey! Jeffrey! Farmer can get a movement going, the official 'Freo supporters who are ok about Melbourne and hate the Eagles' seating area.

    Just imagine the ruckus! :D

    Yes Jeffy yes, that exactly what we need. Any little advantage we can get to take their focus off the game should be explored.

    Remember that tablet set up in front of the bench i mentioned on the podcast. Maybe instead of key statistics and messages and tactical information it could show a feed of the sporting globe?

    (by the by i said on the podast that i assumed most clubs would have something similar. Perhaps they do but i have looked for it at our games, on the replays and other televised matches and have not seen any other examples).

    That still boggles my mind! Must be some decent binos!

    What about hiring a Jumbo flying over the Ground??

    Nephew used my codes, and got tickets for 4 people, up behind the Dees cheer sqaud.

    Lucky he is with a couple of  mates who can go a bit, as his mouth is Shrek sized when the Dees are playing.

     

    Hopefully we can get enough voices there to be heard.

    I think the ferals over there will lift our players and they will soar higher than the Eagles. Maybe it will be burnt wings!

    So apparently Neil Mitchell has spoken with someone at channel 7 that is prepared to work with the club to ensure that the broadcaster focuses on a select group of Demons fans for Goodwin to refer to for motivation - considering how negative the environment can be. 

    They're called a cheer squad? And the dude sporting Woewodins hair style looks to be the prime motivator

    Our Cheer Squad are more than capable of matching West Coast for enthusiasm. I have seen them go wild quite a few times.

    This is hilarious.

    Someone suggested as a joke on a Facebook group that we all buy tickets and not attend. Mitchell has caught wind and run a story about it.

    I hope the West Coast fans are louder than they've ever been.

    Our guys will love it.  You can not intimidate this Melbourne team, you bozos!

    The bias of the West will come through the umpiring decisions, one fears.

    Do the Freo Dockers have a forum? Might be an idea to engage the purple army to join the cause and use up some food those tickets to support the dees.

    It’s all over the evening news here as well. 

    Eagles supporters labelling it as “bad sportsmanship” the clowns.

    I just love the last two games, both times the crowds were amazing. 

    I think a lot of people would go to the G to watch it on the big screen, just a thought.

    What a great idea! Free snacks for all Freo supporters at the Optus Oval in Perth if they wear Red'nBlue on the day.

    Considering they're on the same network 6PR and 3AW having a feud has about as much legitimacy as a WWE match. They would have cooked this up the moment Melbourne - West Coast was confirmed.

    These Western Australian muppets should boo themselves for being sucked in by such obviously artificial outrage.

    And I've seen them be rather disappointing more that a few times too.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
