Dees by 100.

Weideman to kick 10.

Oliver 57 contested possessions.

Nibbler zero fumbles.

I believe.

 

Weideman kicking 10 and Oliver collecting 57 contested possies is still astonishingly more believable than ANB having a fumble-less game.

    Port will start well but by about 1/2 way through 3 term we should be able to roll them convincingly.

    I wish melbourne was doing something for the loss of colin sylvia. not sure whether we'll be wearing arm bands or not but things have been a little too quiet for my liking. 

    Yes, I like it. 

    It can be forgotten in the pre-season, those we have lost... and those who were taken, so early.

     

    Vale`...    Ian Thorogood  &  'Col'...   Sylvia.

    He looked lethal in that exhausting workout. He must have bent over at least 4 times to pick up the ball off the ground. Could he be put through any more thorough physical test of his injured cheekbone? Surely not.

    My guess is he will miss and they are trying to throw us off the track with selection.

    Waste of time if they do that Redleg. Preuss is out injured, Bradtke is nowhere near ready. Either way we just have Max.

    Hope they do play those mind games, that way they don't concentrate on the more important things.

    A noted innovator, Hinkley takes the concept of chaos ball to a whole new level.

    All up, the Power will have 11 changes to the team that lost to Essendon in round 23 last year. "It makes it hard for Melbourne to predict what we're going to do, because we don't know what we're going to do."

    Dear Demonland,

    Can you please post the link to the destination article (presumably somewhere on the AFL web site) so we don't have to go to the Evil Place?

    Thank you in advance,

    Vandenberg is a worry for me. Didn't make the family day last week and was a no show on Monday. Hope his foot hasn't flared up.

    The latest injury list says he's available, but no idea how old it is.

    Probably one of the most anticipated training threads coming up tomorrow. Which ‘landers are reporting for duty?

    MFCSS in me fears the worst then a nail biting win at Cattery

    Sounds like both of us will be fielding underdone sides and/or will be missing key players.

    It might only be Round 1 but this is a game we just cannot afford to lose.

    Melbourne Football Club Supporter Syndrome is the constant negativity of some supporters due to years of failures.

    Thanks.  I've suffered from that too, but hope to escape its clutches this year.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
