Well, folks, the big rain band has just cleared away from us here at Mudgeeraba.  So, I was able to venture outside and measure the rainfall.  Between 7am yesterday and 10 am today, we have had fully 170 mm of rain!  (And, that's near the top of my gauge, so who knows how much splattered out the top!  Got a gully behind my house, and it is fairly raging through there!  Good news is that it is supposed to clear up later in the day.  Right now I can even see some blue sky!

Best weather report I have ever seen Vagg and probably more accurate than the tv weather. 
 

Good work and I hope u r right. 

 

GAME DAY oh yeah baby. Got a pastrami on the smoker and a Ruben sandwich (if you don't know look it up) for dinner, gotta try stay of the cans long enough though. 4 am start tomorrow isn't going to be fun, especially getting through the permit zone into NSW...

I've watched three sides ( Suns, Tiges and Port ) dominate quarters yet not put the score on the board and lose. We need to take our chances today or suffer the same fate.

How's the weather up Corowa way Joshy? Cloudy and grey up in here in Albury currently. The permits have been a disaster with some of our Wodonga folks at work.

I was more confident before watching Hawthorn flounder against Sydney yesterday. 
Brisbane are going to be a real test for us today. 
10 point win. 


I can understand why some are nervous about us playing in potentially wet conditions - in the past we haven't exactly set the world alight in these instances.

But I get the feeling we are better prepared for it than in the past.  We love the ball hitting the deck up forward and there will be plenty of that today.  I think we've got the right mix there to give them some real trouble, while Weideman at the very least can crash a few packs and give the smalls a chance.  Also, hopefully this means there won't be as many intercept marks from their tall backs and we can give them a contest every time it goes inside 50.

We have the midfield bulls around the contest as well, while Max has the tank to go all day and wear McInerney down.  The big fella won't be getting any smaller and Max should be able to give us first use.

And our back line has been excellent as of late.  Jetta, Lockhart and Salem (and possible even Jones) are all tough around the contest, and we know what we'll get from our three talls.

The Lions are a terrific football side but I like our chances today, whether it be raining buckets or just a little slippery.

So a couple of showers so far. I think its a Day day today...

Yeah a bit overcast, typical winter's day I guess. Cops on the corowa bridge have been fantastic. Frustrating that we can't move around freely but we all have to do our part x no matter how great or small.

Still bucketing down here on the GC.  Think there's a chance the worst of the rain will be gone by later today.  Once it eases off, the surface at Carrara will dry out very quickly, so still hope conditions won't be too bad this evening

Live half way between Bris and GC and it is starting to clear. Top Temp of 23 so agree Vagg the ground will dry out by 6pm and be in OK condition. Looking forward to this game and the Port, Magpies and hopefully North games. At our best we will beat the Lions.

I’m a Albury local too. Fortunately only had to travel once to Wodonga and that was enough of a headache.

Yeah a few of my wodonga workmates have had to adjust their work times just so they can beat the traffic.

A lot of confused locals with the whole permit thing, many local businesses unfortunately suffering as well.

Can’t see us winning this. We smashed Hawthorn who are proving to be a bottom 4 team and young GC side who are inconsistent. Let’s not get carried away. 
Brisbane are the form side in the competition. Their back line will make it hard for our forwards and their mids are as good as ours and use the ball extremely well going forward. 
 

I think we will lose by 5 goals. We are a borderline top 8 team. They are a top 4 team and my flag favorites.

Beat Brisbane and we’ll take away the four points. 

Didn't know that!

I'm waiting for the meltdown when Brisbane scores the first goal or two. ?

You Queenslanders are so precious. I would happily sit in the freezing rain out at Arctic Park just to watch a game of footy. :P

Enjoy the game and boo for me.

Haha fair call mate! To be honest I’m just lucky I’m able to go to the game live as well as the QLD games upcoming. We will barrack hard for you guys!

Sunday night games are the worst! Such a long wait for first bounce

The expectation to home school on a Monday morning after 16 cans on a Sunday night is preposterous.

Brilliant Brady. Enjoy the game.

I have really missed watching us live this year. But i love it that some dees fans can now get to some games.

You must be pumped the tassie game looks as if it will now be at the Gabba or Metricon.

Pfft, give me dirty graffitied alleyways and face masks any day.. 


Playing Jones has put us behind the 8 ball already. 

Blue skies & sunshine here since 10am.  Virtually nothing on the weather radar at present, so all good so far!

How nice to have hope we could win again.

Go Dees.

" Abandon hope all ye who barrack for the dees"  I think that's in the bible somewhere. Either Revelations, or the bit which has " Blessed are the cheesemakers "

And if you haven't read the bible yet, don't bother. I've read the end.   The devil did it !!!!!

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
