    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.

    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: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
