I think they're in the same boat as us in terms of listed players being available for this game.

Yep, just slipped over to Bomber Blitz (it's ok, I've showered since) and they sound very much like us and will be relying on a few members that are attending to give updates. I wonder if the Demon twitter feed might get a workout?

As a side note; I don't make a habit of visiting other fan sites but my clear impression is; none of them come close to the functionality and visual excellence of DL. Kudos to you Andy.

    I'd be disappointed if it didn't. Hopefully a few of the Demonland faithful will be there to fill in any gaps.

    I spoke today to an Essendon insider who feels that the Bombers will field a reasonable squad. Given that this will be their best team because they don’t have a Marsh Cup game over the weekend, they should be too strong for our second string team missing a large number of players through injury.

    That smells like you are preparing us for a big loss WJ.

    I will still go but would like to have an idea of what Melbourne players will be playing.

    Given they're not in the team or 8 man bench for the Crows game tomorrow or they're injured.

    Any of the following could play

    Bedford

    Jordon

    Rivers

    Hunt

    Hore

    Chandler

    C Wagner

    Bradtke

    Tell me, what would be a bigger worry (Not for us)? Basically a seconds Melbourne getting flogged? Or a decent Essendon side fighting a hard fought win and only winning by a couple of goals?

    Cue the usual suspects still slashing their wrists over losing the game by 8 goals when we're only fielding a small handful of AFL listed players.

    Going along with our pre season theme, have we started an hour early, before oppo arrives, and built up a big lead yet?

    We have, but so far we've kicked 10 points and 4 out on the full.

    Players are in full panic mode.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
