PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Bulldogs

Lucifers Hero
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Will be interesting to see how the coaches handle this lineup. with the lack of tall timber in the forward 50 we may have to use a bit of left field imagination.

Giving Petty a run forward is a possibility as is giving one of the other defenders a run there. Lever up forward anyone?

How about both Gawn and Preuss in the forward 50 and frost in ruck for  or 10 mins. petty to cover the defence.

A lot of different scenarios available I just hope that we try a few of them on Sunday.

    Why not play Keilty forward?

    Agree he’s just as good a prospect as Weid and has a better football brain and is very disciplined

    Called it a few weeks ago before the bye round mate. OMac to FF, kicks 50 and leads us into the finals on an undefeated run. Ends up winning the Norm Smith with a bag of 6 and goes down as an MFC Great next to the likes of Norm Smith and Barassi ?

    No.. he is an ordinary player who will be delisted at the end of the year.

    A so called key forward at VFL level and hes only kicked 9 goals in 10 gamrs.

    Have paid no attention to Footscray this year at all. Had literally never heard of Naughton before last week.

    Took a towering one grab mark the night he equalled Carey for the most contested marks in an AFL match and to show it was no fluke, repeated the feat twice more for the quarter. Must be a ? in for mark of the year!  Brings but memories of Shaun Smith.

    I wonder if Petty will have some time up forward he is good overhead and may defend the area better than some of our forwards. Looks like max and Brayden will rest at full forward.

     

    Like that thought.  Might be a bit too left field for our mob.

    All in favour of a return to ankle high footy boots with screw in stops and quarter cut slices of ? at 3/4 time.

    I found that swilling Brandivino on a cold winter night as a 15 year old was quite warming.  Plus it was only about 

    $ 2.50 per bottle.

    If you were influenced by Chisel into drinking that drop at that time ( “paper bag, brandivino”) then I’d suggest you must be around 55 years of age PD.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
