I feel so ill....it makes it so much worse that we are the favourites. 

My missus has invited a heap of people over tomorrow night too so I need to behave... 

*within covid guidelines of course* 

 

I reckon we need to put someone on Henry. He has been great At intercept marking, especially since Stewart went down. 

will be massive if we can bring the ball to ground inside 50

So am I right in thinking that the medi-sub in the grand final is just a free sub? You could freely sub any player off and say "nah they won't be good to play for 2 weeks.... :goody2:

Good deal on the Cheezles, I will have to head out in the morning. Woolies also have Lolly Gooble Bliss Bombs, which have been requested by the daughter as the celebration snack!!!

It was only 125 grams of cheezleness in a massive 10 x 25 cm box, so there are serious environmental concerns attached to putting those dehydrated corn and maltodextrin treats on your fingers like they're premiership rings and then eating them off one by one. Toobs with their wider inner-circumference probably have a better carbon footprint.


@Jadedwill probably appreciate this, but I nervous-ate 85 percent of my Cheezles already, some eighteen hours before the match. The whisky reserves have also taken a hit (not a recommended combination by the way).

I feel this very strongly in my soul. 
But stress eating is done now. I’m in stress loading. Too anxious to eat. Great for the diet. 
I’ll be knocking off work from home early tomorrow and getting stuck into the several wine bottles in my bar. I have a very special bottle of champagne that I’ve been keeping for a long time. If we win the grand final I’m going to neck the entire thing.

Jeez, I need a mylanta just thinking about that!

I reckon you’re right. If someone is having a shocker they might be told to limp off. The club would cop a fine but who gives AF?

Or they could contract the Carlton doctor of 2018 to write a certificate.

I wonder how much anxiety supporters are feeling is because Melbourne haven’t played for a week, we seem to have forgotten just how good we were against Brisbane.

We’ll all know inside of 24 hours. Nerves have started to kick in. 

Proud of the boys, never prouder........................make me proud again.

it might also be because Melbourne haven't played in a grand final since almost the invention of mobile phones.

I have a $400 bottle of red that I picked up in the Napa Valley in March. I don't care if the bounce is at 03:00 in the morning over here for me in California, it's going to go down with a bloody nice cheese board to boot

Hatch and dispatch 

Geelong have named Darcy Fort as an emergency.  It was reported he rucked at their training yesterday while Stanley didn't.

Tuohy and Henderson also reportedly 'sore'.

A late change coming up?

I don’t think anyone felt like we had a real shot at a flag in 2018. Beating Geelong and Hawthorn was reward enough after 190 years of no success. 
 

We can win it this year which is so much worse.

No mention of Cameron’s hamstring? Or Hawkins’ bruised elbow?

Which makes one crave salty snacks.

 

Repeat cycle.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
