Taking my 4 year old to his first game of the year. We have country memberships. Anyone know if we just scan at the gate or do we need to nominate the game somehow and get a ticket in another way? Just unsure how the five games are counted. 

Your country membership will scan you into the general admission areas.

Gameday Prediction(s):

- Hunt will kick four majors.

- Jeremy Cameron will be reported.

- Toby Greene will kick five majors. 

- Hore will take seven intercept marks. 

As long as Hunt kicks the first of the game I’ll be happy at the end of the day ?

The suns have shown what’s possible with a no name list, they’ve pushed some good sides up until 3/4 time. I had us getting flogged last week, but not only did we come to play, we played with purpose. Giants have some skilful players but so do we. What’s annoying me the most is that this year the flag is there for the taking, and we waited until round 9 to have a serious crack.

With both SA clubs losing this weekend this game has become that much more important... A win here and we are just a single game behind 7th and 8th spot. 

Yes one game behind the records of 7th and 8th but given our %, we would effectively be two games off a top 8 spot. Lose today and we are still three games off.

Our poor percentage is basically worth another game. Teams would be licking their lips to play us, because even if they lose against us they don't stand to lose much percentage given we barely score and don't win by much.

I fully expect to know within the first 5 minutes if we are in this. We are well under the odds after last weeks great effort. If we were favorites Id say we won't win. But strangely enough because we arent, we are a very good chance.

I have gone for Melbourne to be in front at the end of each quarter. ($4)

Love the optimism. 

Let me temper that. 

We will be obliterated today.

Just completed a very pleasant spa and steam at the RACV club ( of which I am surprisingly still a member, given Biffen’s past drunken efforts to get me banned)

Anyway I am feeling almost positive and predict a close win- alternatively we will get flogged!

Salem out hurts...

BIG time!

So that's no Lever, May, Salem, Jetta, Hibberd.

Ridiculous.

Christ, just saw. Spargo comes in? Don’t know what to make of that.

Spargo has done absolute nothing at VFL and now he gets a recall. What the??. We are in trouble. Just hope he can actually do something today. Bit more than his normal 30 odd SC points.

To put it kindly a bizarre selection in Spargo. Back in on the back of 2 weeks out on top of a poor VFL game.

Goody still feeling under the weather or what!??

Really not good news for Salem who has a history of concussions. 

I didn’t think he did?

Thyroid yes but can’t recall him having too many concussions.

& it's a real shame because it looks as though our system has finally got going (some what)... but there's always a tipping point when it comes to injuries & today's late out may prove to be just that.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
