GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs Sydney

in Melbourne Demons

4.40 on a Thursday....  thats mental.

Anyways we have to show up today switched on or we will get beaten.  Swans recently had that big upset over GWS which is enough to make any Dee fan nervous.

Melbourne to bring home the bacon by 37 points

 

Finish work at 4:30pm and overtime won't even be a consideration. Hope the cops see my membership sticker, understand the conundrum I am in and wave me through or escort me home. But I think alot of them are Saints supporters, I'm screwed.

    Why is 7mate available in NSW and ACT but not in Victoria 

    Absolutely disgraceful 

    Well for those of us in NSW and ACT it is a small compensation for getting the free to air slots filled with Sydney & GWS games all the season,  leaving few slots for other games, thus reducing the chances of a MFC match to almost 0.

    I just wish the AFL would produce an AFL-only service.  I'm only interested in AFL not 500 other sports.  I don't want to spend a lot on Fox or Kayo for stuff I have no interest in.

    Not only unaware of this option, but can't see where you select it. Advice please Binman.

     

    Sorry sue. Just saw this.

    Its not an option. I wish it was. I hope it will be

    I've asked demonland to use his social media clout to start a viral, online campaign to convince kayo to include it as a replay option.

    Many Demonlanders have their wish - Harmes will play in the midfield. 

    That’s great. But does that mean Smith will play in defence? If so, that’s gross.

    Just to clarify Bin: the behind-the-goals option is available during live broadcasts but not replay? Not sure if sue was asking re. the former and where to find it? 

    Should win comfortably but my MFCSS is tingling. Short break after a long day doing the fly in/out game in Alice, bus trip to Brizzy then a decent flight to Cairns. In any other season I'd say we were stuffed.

    In Nsw myself and yep we get a lot of swannies games on mate.

    Kayo is good value at 25 per month.( I've paid that for parking at the SCG)..its cheeper than foxtel. You can always split it with a mate and use the same account.?

    No sorry, skuit. It is not available live or in replay. Apologies for the confusion

    I mentioned replay because i'd  love to watch a replay of our games just with  the behind the goals angle, which apparently they record and provide to the AFL teams so they use for their analysis and reviews.

    So if they have the vision why not provide it to customers (with or without commentary) . 

     Live would also be a great  option actually as if it was option i could imagine i'd toggle between shots so i could see what is ahead of the ball or to check out match ups or structures.

    Gates open in 1 hour.  Nearly ready to head off.  Nights have been cool so wearing long pants for the first time in 6 months.  It is currently warm and windy.  I am not excited, I'm hysterical. 

    Now c'mon the Dees.

    I'm a digibeet but had the overseas watchafl pass and would occasionally cast it from my computer to a television. Anyways.

    We're not flying from Maroochydore to Cairns?

    Under normal circumstances (and things are anything but normal both for the AFL and for Virgin Australia), Virgin has direct flights from Maroochydore to Cairns.

    The Demons are Number 18 for Tackles

    I used to do that, but they found a way of preventing you doing it.

    Feeling quietly optimistic about this one, pretty sure we've never lost to Sydney whilst playing in Cairns.

    I really hope chronic nervousness can be resolved, why am I never confident going into a game. I have no reason to be nervous and yet still I can't see us getting over the line. 

    MFCSS is debilitating!!

    In all seriousness, I generally like the changes and think the team is in relatively good form. The four day break combined with some possible humid/hot weather might play a part but considering sydney are on the same level, no excuses can be made. 

    Come on dees!

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.
