Nervous. Very. Very. Nervous. 

I don’t have a good feeling about today and the miserable Melbourne weather isn’t helping. 

Go Dees!

Indeed. I have a negative feel about today as well but I have been wrong many times.

 

Melbourne is now paying $1.17 and Port is out to $4.60. Feels a lot closer than that to me.

Have they made the call to take Ryder out of the game maybe?

Leaving sunny Ballarat now to head down to the G. Its raining?

I think we will win but might be close. Go Dees

Unusual for a dees supporter to be negative. Who’d have thought.

    Well ...yes ...certainly on special occasions. Maybe a tad ostentatious for the footy.

    I'm pumped!

    Dropped the girl at gymnastics.

    Dropped the dead fridge and two out of date gas cylinders at the waste recycle centre so I feel I've done stuff.

    One of the non-dead fridges is full of home brew and I am ready to start working on the footy season a.s.s. groove on the couch...bring it!

    I can't believe we are at game day round 1. 

    Lets hope we get off to a much better start than our last game we played. 

    I just hope we win well and it's not close in the final minutes. 

    Looking forward to see Maxy dominate and see how our forward line looks without Hogan.

    Hopefully the weather clears. I know we are in desperate need for rain, but not today. 

    Come one deees get it done. 

    Let's roll DEMONS

    Any win is a good win today being Round 1

    Could be 100 points or 2 points

    Just win

    Win it for Max, Win it for the Club Members, Win it for yourselves.

    Believe that you can win every quarter...

    Go in hard...

    Can't believe this is really happening. 2019!

    I'll be comfortable with a 35 point win considering we're underdone. Otherwise I'm tearing up the joint.

    Also, can someone help me with the time difference - do I really have to wake up at/not go till bed till 4am to watch from Europe?

    After a shortened preseason for a number of our better players and poor preseason form I will be happy with a one goal win. We are lucky not be starting the year at Geelong or we would start 0 and 1.

    A couple of mm is max. Will be excellent ground condition by 1.45. Heat will be the problem not rain.

    Blood y hell has it started?

    Would not be surprised to see a scratchy start from us. Nothing really stood out in the JLT. The betting odds are way over the top and are bathwater drinking inducing.  Should be closer than pundits think. I predict an ugly win by less than 20 points.

    I wouldn’t worry about JLT form, you watch our intensity lift, especially with Viney in the middle.

    Yep that’s my theory too. Our game plan only really works with 95% effort from everyone. Contested footy. It falls apart with the 75% effort brought in the JLT matches. 

    As long as we step up, it may be ugly, but we will win

    Aren't you in Melbourne?

    Can someone make the case for why Hore is playing ahead of others like Petty today?

    I was generally pretty unimpressed by Hore's preseason performances.  Didn't think he contested that well to win the ball and also thought he was pretty untidy with his disposal at times.  But I guess the coaches were happy with his form and performances otherwise he wouldn't be out there.

    Perhaps it was about him completing the defensive assignments set for him well, which doesn't nessasrily come across on the telecast?

    Can someone elaborate?

    Hore is a pretty handy mature aged intercept marking defender , will give us good coverage for the likes of Lever who is still 5 weeks away.

    UPDATE

    the north has been surprisingly kind to this Dees supporter! Several MFC types doing morning shopping at Norflands, knowing nods. 

    Then Only had to go 2 stations on bus, now getting a train from Bell. Carriage with a smattering of Dees fans. Just had a chin wag with a toothless, neck-tattooed Dees fan from Epping. 

    Good times! 

    CARN THE MIGHTY DEES!!!

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
