All you Melbourne people need to get to the ground this Friday night and support the Dees. Lets have more people there than Sydney as last 2 home games were poorly attended by us. I can't as based in Qld but I reckon we have a big chance in this one. Been playing some ordinary footy but only just getting beaten so tidy up some basic skill errors, look for our players for a change when we win the ball (which we do often) and come home with the bacon.

Thank you round eh?

I assume they're thanking us rather than us thanking them.

I think we'll get the job done here as Gawn will dominate against no recognised ruckman and we won't get punished as much with our turnovers. That being said out forward line is a huge concern in terms of winning a game of footy. 

Us by 16 pts in a low scoring yawner. Hoping Sydney have either packed up for the year or are focusing on the final game with McVeigh's farewell and Buddy's 300th.

Has anyone thought to consult with Gil....see what the preferred  outcome is ?

I actually think the reverse might accomplish more. For 55 years we have kept attending despite the rubbish we have been dished up. If no one turns up that might finally get the message over that we are tiring of what the MFC delivers.

So this is number 3 of the all time biggest games of our amazing 2019 season.

Could I possibly miss it.... I ask you

With a prediction of showers and about 12 degrees it sounds like a perfect night out and of course there is our exciting brand of football.

I think I'll be washing my hair and/or watching the young Smith boy pummel the Poms.

I have a movie to see tomorrow night. Just a little story about holding out against the odds at a place called Long Tan.

"Hmm ... Tasmanian Demons ... I like the sound of that. Tasmanian ... Demons ... Hey! Where are the betting ads? There hasn't been one on the scoreboard for over a minute! And can we turn up the volume on the ground announcer doofus? I can still hear myself think! Sandra, get me Channel 7 on the red phone. I'm going to apologise, just in case."

SPOILER: it's about a girl who puts on SPF 50

I am tipping us to win a nail-biter. Not because i think we are better than Sydney but because we are not Gold Coast and just cant keep losing week after week after week after week after week after week.

Or can we?

This is Melbourne... of course we can.

Sydney by 4 goals.

Yes, Sunday is a very important day in our nations military history and I am very proud to have served our country.It is also the 2nd anniversary of the passing of one of  my closest friends after a 10 year battle with leukemia

Last night on 3AW:

Caro - 'You'd be disappointed that Friday night's game is between Melbourne and St.Kilda'

Gil - 'Oh, yeah, but I think that the fixturing has got it right for most of the year....'

I wonder how we missed recruiting him Bbo? We seem to have every other dill in AFL football over the last 50+ years.

I wondered if she had set him a trap, whatever way he had no idea who was playing in the Friday night prime time match.

Indeed od!! 

We’ve never been reticent to pay/trade overs

[censored].  I’m getting really depressed 

I was hoping to watch the Test but it will probably be washed out

Something else on, so not going to this 3XL blockbuster.

what has Chandler done to deserve a game?  Routinely gets 4 disposals and about 20 AF points at Casey.

i believe we can win this one.

 

Only watched the last ten minutes of training. They must have started early. 

Noticed they empathised communication and structure.

Billy Stretch,  Charlie Spargo, Alex Neal-Bullen, Marty Hore and Kade Chandler with the squad.

No Harrison Petty, and I can't remember seeing Oskar Baker, Jayden Hunt or Oscar Mcdonald (could be wrong).

It was good to see Jeff Garlett running laps.

From where I was it was unwatchable

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
