Re: Round 1 clash versus the Demons.

Well let’s hope it’s 2013 again I guess

2019, just like 2018.

Tough game first up :confused:

Last time we played Melbourne in round 1 at the mcg is still one of the best days at the footy I have been too. The uncertainty of how we would go and the hype of the Melbourne supporters brutally rebuffed by a new free scoring port, the debut of Ollie wines and a jay Schulz mark of the year contender. Happy times. Hope for a repeat.

Pencil that one in as a near certain loss.

The only strength we have now is our inside 'bulls' as KT called them, and theyve been hammered inside by the maturing young group that Melbourne have for a while now. Theyve been too quick, reflexes too fast, and simply too hard for us. We got super lucky last time at home against them and we've only gotten worse since then, while theyve got a shitload of organic growth left in them.

In a year where we will really struggle to make the top 12 let alone 8, its a terrible start.

Nothing like starting the season with a 10 goal loss emoji28.png

Always good to get games at the G

Dees by 79 points.

So we going to Crows vs Hawthorn to boo Chad :tongueclosed::tongueclosed::tongueclosed:

Thread title needs to be changed to Swimming & [censored] Cup lol

----- I reckon old mate will be in the SANFL lol

Lol who ******* cares. I'm still not even close to remotely wanting any sort of football.

We will get smashed

Bring back 2013.

It'll be 237 days since our last win. We could be due.

    Perhaps we' ll agree to shift the game to "  The Barton " oval. Closer to home for them ......no , stuff 'em. 

    Lets destroy them at the G

    Dropped over to the Port forum in the last few rounds of 2016... they seem to be quite realistic in the main.

    Should be a win for MFC but nothing is certain with the MFC as we well know.

    He has to replace Cyril and Burgoyne - he's not that good

    • 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.

    • 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?
