Cracked the code and ended up as a bunny at a shibari event. Will be tied up until kick-off with no other choice. Recommended remedy. 

Jesus. I don't think I want to know what this means.

    Kozzie and Dogga are the personalities that would step up and relish a finals atmosphere.

    And Oliver to pick up from last week.

    For sure.

    I haven't mentioned another under the radar player, Bowey. Finals after, what, 4-5 games. What a story, reliability, efficiency, selfless, supportive. Keep that cool head, give us an out and hit up those mids. Would love him to get a goal. 

    Go Dees!

    To the lucky demon fans living in SA who can go tonight, you are representing every fellow demon fan who cannot be there tonight. Just make more noise than the lion fans & when the boys run out tonight let them know the support is there. Have fun & lets hope we all see a victory

    I have to admit that this game is more nerve-racking than the elimination final against Geelong in 2018. Before the elimination final against Geelong I didn't feel particularly nervous about what would happen because I was satisfied that we were able to make the finals in the first place. But today I feel extremely nervous because we finished on top of the ladder and my expectations are really high.

    I'm not nervous yet. Maybe because we haven't been able to go to the games I feel a bit disconnected if that makes sense.

    I think I'm more excited because for once we are the team to best & haven't just fallen into finals action. Maybe this will be our best chance yet.

    Brisbane have bought in 2 very good ins but at least Hipwood isn't there. We just have to get off to a good start & not let them jump us.

    With Harris Andrews, normally has a reasonable height advantage against most forwards, hopefully won't get that tonight with BB. Hope he can at least halve most contests.

    If the rain comes as predicted at half time, I hope we are well up. Harder to score in the wet.

    Ive got a feeling Trac is going to rip lions apart Dusty style.

    Will suit us. Lions are a fast high scoring team.

    Rain and we will grind them down with our surge footy.

    I hope so. He has become a sidekick to Oliver over the past 12 weeks. Time to just reassert your dominance my man.

    I don't think there's any egos left in our side. Sometimes I wish Trac and sometimes Kozzy would be more selfish because they are such rare talents but they are playing a selfless game all of them, and that's obviously what it takes to finish on top...

     

    Hopefully it's enough to go all the way?

    I don’t live far from Adelaide Oval and it’s getting very dark outside, The rain looks to be coming soon.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
