How does the "If we lose to the Suns I will..." thread have more post than this thread?

Looking at the ground last night it looks like an absolute cows paddock.

Fingers cross for no injuries.

I like our selected side. I reckon we will win comfortably 

I am particularly looking forward to watching Bennell and an improved VDB, now that he has a couple of games under his belt

In a joyous celebration of my returned optimism, I shall give the maid a jolly good pre game rollicking !

Dees by 4 goals.

Weid to kick three, Bennell to have an impact and Clarrie will respond to the criticism with a vintage game in the middle.

It’s a balancing act od !

Dictated largely by whether I guzzle large amounts of vin ordinaire or The Manor’s budget allowing me to savour a higher quality Shiraz

It’ll be interesting to see us play against a team that attacks and doesn’t play keeping off. 
should mean we can hit the scoreboard for once. I too expect a win but the suns have been very good this year

Raining and predicted to last all day. Will be a slippery wet slog.

It seemed very slippery last night on the tv, so even though I like the addition of two talls I sort of lol’d to myself that this could be perceived as the game you don’t want to bring in talls (it’s almost like he’s trying to select the wrong team ? - only at Melbourne)!! Looking forward to it anyway! Go dees!

I hope you aren't allowing the maid to drink pre-match Uncle.  Particularly the ordinaire stuff!

Can you imagine the quality of game this will produce could well be 1 goal each at half time.

Strangely optimistic, I think something might click tonight.

Feeling the same way. Think all the media heat and the hub will galvanise the group.

In a lot of games RN a good thrashing would be preferable to be forced to watch the game.

Got some pork fillet marinating in a Chinese BBQ brine, some home made Italian venison sausages, a couple of car from porterhouse steaks all going on the smoker and a bottle of Hently farm Shiraz* 

The final piece of the puzzle is a pineapple of the sun's paying $2.40 as an insurance policy...

Games against Gold Coast have historically been positive turning points in our season, so I'm tipping that to continue.  2 and 3 with the team playing a more confident, connected brand of footy and things won't seem anything like as bad as they do right now.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
