Almost forgotten the meaning of gameday .. I reckon if we actually display the speed and toughness evident in the selection, we will cr@p it in.

We will lose if we score the first 8 goals of the game.

Cats 12.1 = 73

Melb 8.20 = 68

It probably won't be far off. Hawkins to kick 5 straight, Fritta to kick 1.7.

As is almost always the case it'll be about which Melbourne decides to turn up. 

Yep and that’s why I start drinking bundy select vat now. 
 

It’s much easier watching the dees play with a few beverages prior to and during the game. ?

Cheers to everyone ?

Dees, by 32 points. New-look forward line very impressive. Vanders and Tracc give the Catty Puts the nervous Nellies. Danger off the field for medical reasons. Carna Dees.

One thing that will really annoy today, if Hibberd keeps kicking his long bombs to no one that seem to hang in the air forever, allowing the defenders to zone off.  Has he lowered his eyes ever ?

Not just Hibberd but we can't afford to bomb the ball at all...it plays into the Cats biggest strength...but spread their defence and they are in real trouble.

I hope we deploy melk as a lock down forward again, I reckon one of their big strengths has been stewards intercepting or at a minimum interrupting forward movement. I'd get melk to take him deep and away from contests as much as possible, without Taylor I think this is an area we could exploit

Following on from the above point. Stewart is key to their attack from defence, if it's not Melk then it has to be AVB. We cut Stewart out and we're a long way to winning this game.

Nice to see all the 'supporters' up nice and early, lovely day to be so [censored] miserable

Just watch the game, then we can have multiple pages of post game angst, no matter the result

I need to get me some of those rose coloured glasses McQueen. 

It makes everything the demons do on and off field so much better ?

I am going to, get ready to watch the game at local pub

Nice chicken parma, few schooners of summer able, hopefully watch an entertaining game 

A Melb win, looking forward to seeing AVB and Hannan, black, sad Nev is not out there, form dropped a bit

Nobody will die if we lose, it is only footy

I've tipped us. 

On paper they look very good, but I think if Gawn can get on top we should be able to control the game. 

My biggest worry is who is going to kick goals? Would love Tmac to kick a few, he needs some confidence badly

It’s a bizarre season and I reckon points on the board early is going to be more important than ever. 
 And ..... as one A Clarkson said , “ Geelong aren’t that good “ !!!!!!

Trouble is, we aren’t that good either.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
