    Wet weather footy is not our thing ( yeah yeah, ok, either is dry weather etc etc) but with the amount of dwarfs we have selected tonight, i have faith that we are at least in with a chance for the ground ball...

    Play along the ground and we have a chance to keep the loss under 5 goals.

    ?

    Can't remember being less excited about watching our team. 

    Dees are favourites in the wet.....Load up on the Bloods 

    We will be creamed by the Swans tonight, I think. Any team with OMac in it is a disaster - even on the bench or the emergency list.

    Tonight is going to be interesting. 

    I’m really hoping Bancroft can build a solid innings because Warner has just flopped again. 

    Smith and Head to continue their great form once they come to the crease.

    When do the jungle drums start coming for Davey?

    If we have less clangers than the oppo, we win this game.

    The last time we won the Clanger count (as in less clangers than the oppo) was the Carlton win.

    Spargo playing in defence tonight.

    Damn. Was hoping he’d take a few centre bounces while Gawn takes his quarterly 10 minute break.

    Wow, where his missed tackles will hurt even more

    He's been working on his piggyback technique in the VFL and might be able to steer the opposition over the boundary line.

    I believe there might be a full moon tonight for the supporters of both teams to howl at during the breaks in play.

    If it is a full moon ...

    Tuning in now with a cold Guinness ...

    Well, it's a Marvelous Melbourne night for Demondance
    With all the stars out in recovery up at Goscher's (with Crossy)
    A fantabulous night to make bromance  (Angus and Clarrie!)
    'Neath the cover of wintry August skies (at the ‘G under lights)
    And all the fans on the fan sites are railing (Match Night thread)
    To the sound of the sirens that blow.
    And I'm trying to please by calling in bets (Dees at a $1.70 for the win)
    Of every heart- beats true for the Red and the Blue
    And all the night's magic seems to shout and hush
    And all the footy boots light seem to shine in your (tackling) crush ...

    Howling Go you mighty Demons! (with more than a nod to Van the man)

    Channel 7 again let themselves down. 

    No vision of bluey vs a minute of vision for polly

    they help the cause of making us an irrelevant club. (I know we do a good job of it ourselves)

    Well done to all those dedicated Demonlanders that are attending tonight.

    Given the sparse crowd I hope you aren’t stuck with a loud and annoying opposition supporter near by and can enjoy the game.

    Go Dees!

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
