GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs GWS

I would imagine they would have had a short training session at the ground around late arvo.

 

So is the game at 6.10 or 7.10 (Melbourne time)?

Hopefully giants rock up at half time.

They did last time I made this trip. They killed us in the second half.

    If we bring our best we'll win. 

    They (GWS) could bring their best but can they sustain it if we're at our best? 

    Rather than matching them we need to set the standard and then keep our foot on their throats ... do that and GWS will wilt

    So really, the ball is in our court.  And the team still has a lot to prove so being off our game at this stage of the season would be unacceptable

    Having said all that I would take any sort of win!

    Just win!

    I think we will grind out a win ..  can't see it being easy though.

    The way things are panning out, it looks as though we've beaten two bottom eight sides thus far.

    GWS are much the same, so taking advantage will be crucial as we'll have a much tougher run in the middle part of the season.

    We need to cancel out those two matches against the Doggies, with two wins against GWS.

    Let's go Demons!

    Pretty sure it was yesterday afternoon.  Max said in the video of support they sent to the AFLW side that they'd be watching in the airport.  That match was yesterday arvo.

    correct, they missed the aflw game because they had to be at the airport before game time

    Dont like it. Melbourne will have to sit around most of today twiddling their thumbs and thinking too much. Much better flying up today having  a relaxing lunch then go for a light  run later and off to the game.

    On form we should win comfortably, but GWS will be fired up at the start as it’s their last hurrah today at 0-2 and abysmal contested differential last week.

    Should be a slog and poor quality game. Just need to banks the 4 points and get back to a few games in a row at the G.

    I hope after the amount of practice we had last year, that game day routines when we travel have been if not perfected, at least ironed out.

    Either way it wont be used as an excuse if we lose as last year showed.

    Anywhere Anytime Anyone. (or something like that)

    Melbourne always play better when Hogan doesn't play. Dee's by 60 odd, T Mac to kick 4, with Jackson the surprise package kicking 3 of his own.

    I know the season is still in its infancy but gws are a bottom tier team and hence we simply must win.

    3 zero isnt enough. Big win must be forthcoming if we are serious contenders.

    It’s the default expectation of being a Melbourne supporter of the 2007-2021 era.

    That must explain our great success in 2019 and 2020!

    Hogan was actively playing for Freo! Today he plays for no one, check mate

     

    What is it with people who run with the bent logic that our win against the Saints is somewhat tarnished because Essendon beat them by a greater margin. 

    So does Sydney beating Richmond make them a lock for the flag then....

    Must also mean than because Freo defeated the Giants and we defeated Freo we automatically win today. 
     

    No other variables should be taken into account.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
