Won't matter. Like Mike Tyson said, everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.

VERY true - looking forward to being on the right side of that Tyson wisdom.

 

C'mon Demons!

Get it done!

This made for decent pump material prior to our first final.

How much can you drink after a covid jab

Consulted my nurse wife for ya fd, what you don't want is to get dehydrated. She reckons 2 std drinks but I'm thinking outside the square and suggest a glass of water after each and every drink 😁

I'm ready to go, wife's looking a million bucks in the colours, she's sporting red horns n'all. Listening to music, feeling relaxed and have a steely confidence we'll be too good tonight. Having a feed and a beer at the empire bar and will then make our way to the ground. Go You Mighty Demons!!!!!

I will,  I dusted the bottle off in 2000 and in 2018 but sadly had abandon the celebrations. It now resides in a Shane Woewodin 2000 port box. I consumed that one long ago.

Currently on the train to the game.

I reckon dees supporters outweigh the cats by 10 - 1! 
 

should be a sea of red and blue there tonight. 
 

will be great for the boys to play in front of a roaring crowd for the first time in a while! 

Optus Stadium full - and not full of ferals*!!! 

*Well, I can't say that with any certainty, but at the least it's a neutral game for locals, so they won't need to bully the umps into any shambolic decisions. Plus, it's against Geelong, and I doubt there will be many non MFC supporters going for the Cats. So they're ok with me. Today.

This just in from the Geelong Bigfooty board.

Who kicks Melbourne’s goals? Very, very poor forward line for a TOTL team. Yes their defence is stellar but our offence is a cut above AND they have not experienced the 4 Headed Monster.

binman's prediction (sounds more authoritative in the third person):

Game:

I think we will have the better of a physical first quarter, get well on top in the second, come into half time with a 5 goal plus lead, resist a final effort from the cats in the 3rd q, and play tempo footy in the last to win by our half time margin

Betting strategy:

I'm very keen on us making our 12 point line. Load up on the line (even money).

Half time margin might be worth having a small go at too. Back two ranges -   Dees 25 - 36 @ $7 and Dees 37+ @ $11

I can't at winning/loosing money to my anxiety levels thanks Binman

Umm, I guess the same guys (and hopefully more) that kicked all those goals against them last time? 

4 headed monster? What's the inbreeding got to do with anything???!


Been slaving away over a crowbar, rake, shovel and mattock for a whole heap of today. Shower - done, and now... the wait.

I actually feel really pumped. At this time of year I'm usually reading carp about Demonlanders wanting to trade some other club gun for 2 Skyhoooks vinyls and a discount voucher at the Salvo stores. This year, I get to watch a really good Dees unit give the finals a crack. Nervous, yes, but it feels goooood! We're playing in a prelim and we are a dead set chance or winning.

Don't get me wrong, there will soon be plenty of moaning, hands thrown in the air, angry spittle flying at 360 degrees, Geelong abuse and many other standard behaviours of a Dees fan, but I'm loving this.

Carna Dees - rip 'em apart.

.... is it game time yet?

Their 4-pronged forward line.

Our backs are better.

4 is an unlucky number.

Sitting on the hotel balcony and judging from the colour of these clouds I'd say rain is looking increasingly likely.

 

Hopefully not much rain

Nice, great colour on the AAA.


WCIPA tapped and a ESB carbonating. Trying to work out a new beer to brew that uses some of our left over hops.

Fritta, BB, LJ, Kozzie, TMac, Spargo, Petracca, ANB, Max, Langdon, and lately Clarry.  Wouldn’t be surprised if Brayshaw, Salem or Rivers pop up for a goal. Hope that answers it for them!

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
