Wow. 

My Uncle died last week. He was a massive Tiger man. 

This game will be hard to follow

R.I.P. Uncle Grant

Go Demons....

Pretty impressed with our start, although I'd wager it may drop off with the heat factor, but we are on top in the midfield and we are generally taking our chances.

Seen enough to know 666 rule will see us kick quote a few cricket scores this year.

Tom Sparrow and Keilty 0 mins that quarter,... interesting

good on field leadership by clarry that quarter when tigers were coming hard. he took the mark at CHB and could have easily played on but slowed play down instead. passes to angus, he kicks long down the line, reset again then bang, bang, 2 goals for us in 2 minutes.

They'll get a run in the second half I'd say, with a couple of our senior players getting a rest.

Commentator just said both sides have their main players in it......uhhhh

We're missing VDB, Gawn, Viney, Hibberd, Jetta, Lever, May, Jones, Lewis, Melksham and Hannan (i count at least 9 of our best 22).

Tiges are missing Grigg, Castagna, Lynch and Caddy from their best 22.

A few missing from Tiges, a lot from our side, commentator clearly has NFI

Not unhappy with that. Looked clean which is a great sign in JLT, especially in close.

Now no injuries and no blow out loss and I'll be happy.

Good to be posting on DL again after the summer hiatus :)

Fair indication of our midfield depth with plenty out but we have an onball trio of Brayshaw Oliver and Harmes...

You watching using AFL app? That's the way it is now. They don't give you the full screen

Trac is a much better shot on the run. 

He's like Robert Redford as The Sundance Kid

Good quarter. It is a pity the commentators talk too much rubbish.

I thought Preuss was dominant in the ruck

He's no Max, but he'll quickly become a very handy addition to our side.  If he can hold his own up forward then he can feast on the oppositions second ruckman when he gives Max a rest.

Most out there from our backline. Which is a bit what we're seeing - rest of the field looks pretty solid, backs not so much.

Oliver is Oliver, but with the stunning emergence of Harmes and re-emergence of Gus, our midfield bats very deep.

Spot on, bing.  Many of their scores came from a turnover or missed spoils.  That won't happen nearly as much with the first choice defence in there.

Annoying, at least I don't get the Iphone view anymore, and at least I watching the game, not whinging just asking

Hoping Trac can work on his set shots. He’s great otherwise and could be such a damaging player for us this year.

We look to have good depth through the midfield. Preuss has been fairly poor though. Opposition ruckman have just been taking it out of the ruck against him. Harmes and Brayshaw both look like continuing on from last year and dominating again.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
