Interesting pre game chat on kayo.

......if defence wins premierships are Demons in the box seat?

Yes.

But I really hope we can get a fwd line that can score high before finals.

 

 

God I love how many little mini-Dees I’m seeing. It warms my ❤️ and ? heart.

It helps when it's not embarrassing to wear the team colors around.

Makes for a better relationship with the kids when they are not being dragged against their wills to watch a losing team every week.

Looks like we are wearing our 2021 Indigenous Guernsey today. 

Leagues best indigenous guernsey.

Would be happy to see it every week.

I just spotted a Giants supporter! I swear I’m not lying. Ima take a blurry pic of him and send it into Paranormal Caught on Camera.

Crisis actor.

This game is so so important. Lose this and drop the Port game next week we will most likely be sitting 5th. Need to put them away early.

I spotted one in the MCC members. There are also about 15 behind the goals

And he is. 

In the likely conditions that is a good selection.

The crowd reminds me of our bad days when not many came.

I guess with reserved seats people can come in last minute.

Aside from obviously just wanting a win, can we kick straighter, a 14.8 or 15.10 would be terrific vs the usual 9.14! It means we keep Giants to 10.7 and have a comfortable 4-5 goal win.

Kudos to Binman and others for your strategic analysis that I really enjoy, but FFS can the Dees just start kicking more goals than points, and that will be about the greatest strategic improvement we can make in the run home!

Think about it, 2 more goals rather than points per round and we have 140 more points onto our percentage, so would be sitting at 148%, have another win (Crows) so would be 13-1.

My wish is for Demons to kick straighter!!!!!

Plus generally keep winning and win the flag(Tokyo Olympics bringing nice symmetry with 64)!

 

We need a Ben Brown type of forward to help straighten us up I reckon.  That would be handy.

We are the fourth highest scoring team in the competition. 

And the 2nd best defence.

What more do you want?

Toby g makes me nervous.

Heres hoping its Kozzies day out.

GWS with no banner. Banned from coming across the border? 

Yeah I guess no one can come over just for the game so I wonder if the 15 or so behind the goals are Melbourne based fans or family members. 


“Testing 1 TWO..1 TWO…TWO…”

Just get the job done Demons, strong start and dictate the game. Kick accurately at goal, please!!

”Let’s Go…”

Surprised a local club didn't make one for them like the swans did for us.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
