Cats by 25.

Selwood may break the record for free kicks today. Conditions are made for his type of head ducker.

Looking forward to Viney smashing some old cat's bodies.

This is still one of my all time favourite photos.

An unforgetable moment in Selwood's career - tried to smart Rs and got treated simply as an aside.

Ya forgot Hawkins. It's a perfect day for him to take the forward dive as if he was pushed.

When was the last time we were 4-zip? 2006??

I think they said 1995

Last time we were 4 zip was 1994!

Scott will play the keepings off game & hope we just don't start bombing it in hope

Will be too difficult in these conditions. It’ll be a territory battle today. We need to smash them in clearances and contested possessions then lock it in our forward 50.


We won our first 5 games in 1994...Let’s hope we can win today and keep the 2021 winning streak going!

Parfitt out.

That’s a big out on top of missing their other big mids. 

No Parfitt

No Dangerfield

No Cameron

No Rohan

No Higgins

they are off a 6 day break

No excuses Demons. Hammer them

Is this a strategic move?  I admit I know nothing about him, I tend to block out all things Geelong

Stop Guthrie 

Press up and hunt Duncan and Stewart getting easy touches behind the ball

And we'll have a shot

Wouldn't be, he's their best 2nd tier mid if that makes sense

Hoping Petty is the sub. This is the sort of game  where Hawkins comes out early trying to get his knee up into May's kidneys. Need to keep an eye out for it.

Also if we give away a couple of ducking frees on Selwood early, the next time he ducks just take his head off.

Sparrow's the sub today.

Conditions are perfect for footy today

No rain currently, blue skies from the south east, chill in the air...

Feels like footy more so than round 1 did that’s for sure


We are back at the G.

For those seeing it there, enjoy and be the 23rd player.

Angry, ruthless and effort for 4 quarters, put the bodies on the line and take our opportunities. 

Give us a good game Dees, build your confidence and mine.

Great opportunity for us to set our season and ladder position. 

Go Dees.

 

 

 

A win should turf Geelong out of the top 8.  Let's get it done and then belt them by 187 points at the cattery later in the year to stamp Scott's papers.

Kozzy rocking the long sleeves!

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
