I think Dusty could be the difference here, he loves a big occasion and his 250th is fairly significant.

Love him or loathe him, he is a very, very good footballer.

If nothing else, it's a good chance for our guys to experience finals like atmosphere and learn from it

    I see this game as a free hit in a lot of ways, number one most important thing is to stay with them deep into the match.

    Above to me will be the 'fascinating' part of the game if it turns out this way.

    According to The Age defence article this morning, when comparing Dees and Tiges,both teams rank No. 1 for final 1/4 efforts.

    Both have won all 5 last 1/4's 

    If its close both will think they have a chance - which will be true in fact.

    I hope we have a very combative game.

    Hit them all hard, give them no space, play angry.

    Make it a we are here moment, great opportunity to set us as the team to beat.

    Tigers by 4 goals.

    We are not at that level yet.

    The Tigers level of 2019 or 2020 was great, apart from the last 3 quarters of football, This Year 2021 Tigers are not near that level either. (Pardon my english.)  For most of this year they have been lower 8 level,  I hope they have been drinking their bath water more the we have been splashing in ours.

    I would happily concede them the last quarter as long as we win the game.

    This is the litmus test game so far (as was the Geelong and hawks games at the time...)

    Think our defence is solid, and provided we apply it well in the midfield we can hold the [censored] head forwards in Lynch and Riewoldt.  Their small forwards may get involved, but we can and should ensure that they get no easy possessions.  They dont like their own medicine so this will be the basis of success.

    Next, we need to win the midfield.  Allowing the ball too often to be in their half is a recipe for disaster - the more we can create and win contests the better off we will be.  In addition, stopping half back run through intense pressure will stifle their ability to move the ball.  Gotta be hard at it here.

    A great contest, with us finding enough avenues to goal and responding to repeated efforts of the Tigers (and their mates the maggots) to take a 24 point win.

    We need to bring energy and intensity for 4 qrtrs. Forward pressure is the key, so last week's level of effort is not going to cut it. 

    Do or die Demons... Dig deep.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
