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.

    Before the Bounce was interesting 

    The Swannettes are Number 1 for Tackles

    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: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
