3 upsets so far:  Ess d GWS.  Nth d Pies.  WBD d Power. 

Today might make it 4 upsets with a Dees d Lions!

Glad we had only one change.  Time to settle the team and get some synergy going among fwd, backs, middle and synergy with ball movement end to end. 

Optimistic that we can click today; if we do we win!

    I live 700 metres from the Gabba.  Clear blue sky right now although we had a couple of heavy showers overnight. Have had some rain most days this week so the deck may be a little slippery. Predicting 25 degrees though and no doubt for you southerners up here for the game, it will be sunscreen, shorts and polo shirts!  ? 14 degrees in Melbourne today.......

    Hope to catch up with a few of you either at the German Club pre match or the Pineapple post game.

    Are we ready for Frost-Ball?

    If the Lions are to play finals at least make them  earn their place. Hopefully last week instilled some confidence in our team and we go out there and play some decent footy. Keen to see if the young gun Andrews goes to Weid. 

    Big Call- Weid to kick 3+.

    Have a big fat weisenstaphaner and a schnapps for me @ProperDee

    first time in a long time I won't be making the two hour trip to the Gabba.

    I just can't be sure what they're going to dish up but here's hoping we've got the wheels back on.

    Looking forward to more beast mode from Viney. Go Dees

    This may sound optermistic but if we win today we are only 3 games behind them and 2 games out of the 8 .Can only dream we can still make finals

    Geez, I had hoped to get up there for this game. I had planned to impose on rellys for free accommodation and grog but, sadly, it fell through.

    I was confident of a victory last week and am even more confident this week. 

    I shall enjoy my own booze and celebrate ( in my typical style)  at The Manor.

    Contrary to your arrangement BBO she's the type who'd be far more likely to be handing out the jolly good spanking.

    Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    Win today and we are still in the hunt. A long shot, but still alive. 

    Go Hard Demons...

    I give us a chance but think the bears will be hard to beat on their own dunghill.

    Our percentage is quite poor. Even if we win we won't move up at all.

    Both jealous and proud of any Vic based dees supporters that have made a weekend away to fly the flag and watch this one. Wish I was with you. I’m bloody freezing.

    Yep and start winning big.


    Great day up here and the ground should be fast by start time. Reckon we have a big chance here. Bring the pressure, win contested ball and the clearances and win it will be. Lions played circle work last week as Saints put no pressure on and a couple of weeks ago Lions were ordinary against Blues. Go Dees.

    We are right on the edge, big time. But i expect to see the Club fight hard, i went to all those games in 1987. 

    The scenario could happen again. 

    A win on the road can galvanise belief. 

    I think we will do well today...

    Im predicting a win for the second week in a row.

    Not at all confident, but there you go.

    I hope you have TV coverage in The Azores @Skuit. I will be listening on internet radio from Thailand* 

    *Not a brag at all coz if i was home i could actually watch the game. At least the food is good here.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
