I just had a really vivid dream where whilst other stuff was happening, the Melb v Carl score line was live throughout. most of the numbers were very specific..
Q1 - Melb 0 Carl 3 

Q2- Melb 3 Carl 8 

Q3- Melb 63 Carl 21 

Final- Melb 138 Carl 38

An exact 100 point margin.

I had the exact same dream. Bennell kicked the last 12 goals of the game.

    Go have your coffee and Zoloft, faulty, dreams can come true. 

    Wake up to yourself.

     

    Let's hope the delivery from Bennell can make a difference to our disgusting inside 50's.  That would be a dream come true.

    I’m not sure what’s more concerning - the fact you actually took my initial post literally/seriously or your belligerent over-reactive responses. 
    Maybe we misinterpret each other. Good day to you, sir.

    Jackson, Rivers and Bennell. That’s some extra natural talent there. 

    I reckon these selections are based on the speed the game is going to be played at.

    2 first gamers plus Bennell who hasn’t played in 2 yrs+ seems a bit risky.  Very hard with no vfl but how have 2 x 1st gamers earned a spot????

    Training form is all they can be judged on.

     

    Interesting that the coaches think these ins will give us a better chance of winning. They must surely rate the kids highly.

    Surely Jones and Salem will be considered, and if so, who will all the outs be?

    The football club is sending a huge message.  If you don’t step up, your spot will go to a kid who will make an effort.  Might be an interesting year of development in some new key players for our future??

    I'm joining a bit of a chorus here that I think Harmes should be placed into a run with role on Cripps, he is a really damaging player and if left unchecked could really hurt us.

    Didn't think it was worth creating a new thread but seems we don't have any love coming our way from the Fox Footy experts. As always there's a love in for Hawthorn though. I will say this, if people were hoping to see significant improvements or changes in round one this year compared to 2019 then understandably they would have been disappointed with what we put up. For me that is why this match is so crucial to us getting our season started again, confidence is a funny thing in sport and we have been so low on it in the last 12-18 months.

    I estimate this is a 5 goal better side than Round1. 
    Of course it has to play up to expectations .

    That gets us to an underwhelming 81 points. Which is what Carlton kicked in their round 1 loss to the reigning Premiers.

    Yes I have thought of this but did u think we were or are only a 7 goal side on Round1?

    I didn't but we played our underwhelming wasteful forward way so say 10 goals might be our estimate in Round 1.

    I would be knocked over with a feather if we kicked 15 goals and were beaten by the Blues.

    Glad we are taking risks Hogan, we have been conservative for a very long time imo in regards to player selection.

    Nah, officially announced mate.

    I got it from the grape vine that we are going to make  at least 7 changes from the last game. 

    What do you think LN.

    Seems like the right amount or so. We've got Bennell, Jackson and Rivers locked in, Smith, Salem and Jones as almost definites, then possibly Weid, vandenBerg, Hannan, Hunt, Sparrow all around the mark to choose from.

    Feels like a lot at first, but then you think it's basically another round 1 given the break.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
