TC, The swan down cushions will be reserved for the front seats that are upholstered in tiger pelts.

As for Mr. Wells, I do not think it is HG. I believe I saw Mr.Wells brother in a movie many years ago', First name 'Oceans'.

CHF pleasing news on the furnishings front but totally perplexed ? on the identity of the mysterious ‘Mr Wells’. The answer must exist somewhere in the ether between George Clooney and the Invisible Man?

    A full defensive effort and not letting them get a hot start is important.  The challenge for us is matching the midfield.  IF we can win or halve the midfield and apply our pressure, we are better forward than they are back, and better back than they are forward.  Papley kept quiet, Hickey and Kennedy nullified and BBB to kick a BBBag.

    They lost nearly every stat but still won last week against the slowing Cats.  They wont get that luxury this week.  Expect we will take the game by 50-70 points.

    In their last four games they fell in against Essendon, lost to GWS, got thumped by Gold Coast and absolutely burgled that win against Geelong.

    With Fritta beating the charges and trak a dee for life, the lid will be off at the G on Sat night.

    Dees by six goals. Bathwater Express rolls on.

    True true. I think we will handle them comfortably.

    Would be nice to have a great start and be up 5 goals at quarter time, we haven't done that this season.

    Gee, there are some super confident posters on here. We cant keep winning forever. If Sydneys IN'S are 100% fit its going to be close. If  Buddy and Rampe breakdown we should win.Weve lost 2 key players.

    Does anyone the stats on our best start to a season? How many did we win in 1965? What year did we win 8 in a row etc? 

    Won our first 8 games in 1965.   Not sure if thats our record.

    Had a quick look and I see we won our first 13 games in 1956.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
