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.

Who kicks Geelong's goals?

I mean, they did score less than us during the H&A season.

    We havent really amassed huge scores this year.

    But on paper our fwd line is very impressive.

    Bbb and Jackson have been improving each week with bbb having a great record.

    Fritta and kossie are two highest are hard to match up on.

    Tmac dominated the fwd line the first half of season and at his best is capable of kicking five.

    Trac and Max are a lot more accurate..

    Its just a matter of them ALL playing their best. Especially our Tom.

    Kossie too is capable of doing anything so I get the feeling one day this fwd line will smash a team.

    I hope its tonight.

    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.

    So the crowd-pleasing mantra of the umpires (to keep the Cats in the game lest they fall behind - usually at the end of the first quarter) might not apply this evening in WA? Wish we could discuss this trend with them. A sea of red 'n blue, hell, I'd like to be there. Carna Demons!

    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

    Good to see you spent your $1000 wisely. 

     

    I hope all the west coast supporters there for us make noise like they normally do and influence decisions our way.

    In all seriousness, they have three players who average more than a goal a game: Cameron (2.64), Hawkins (2.54) and Rohan (1.60).

    We have five: Fritsch (2.32), Brown (1.82), Pickett (1.61), TMac (1.43) and Petracca (1.13).

    Can you imagine if this game in a normal world was at the G tonight? The members would be packed and I reckon we'd outnumber the cats fans. Oh well maybe next year. 

    We know geelong are the more experienced side and they will want revenge from r23. I guarantee tonight Lever and May won't be able to just sit back and intercept mark after mark and gawn will be really closely checked by Stanley. Oliver will have work put into him. 

    We need to be ready from the get go. I know they are young but the first final Bowey and Rivers had the fumbles. We can't afford that tonight. We must take our early chances at goal and put the pressure back on them. 

    It feels so strange that we are in a prelim tonight. I keep thinking my god if we win we are in a grand final. 

    To all the perth fans going tonight barrack doubly hard tonight for the supporters who can't be there. Please get our boys over the line into the grand final. You are so lucky to be there. 

    Go dees give them hell!

    We'd outnumber then 10 to 1 just as we did in 2018.

    I know completely well that if we play our game, we win easily, but I'm so nervous that we will have one of our off games.... Struggling today. Karcher'd all the backyard tiles and the gutters and the fence.... just need to keep myself busy for another 2 hours 😅

    Yep and Tommy got to fire tonite

     

    Bumped into my best mates wife at school pick up, wandering in to pick up our respective chicklets, she is a Geelong nuffy.

    I asked her if she was excited about tonight.. "Na not really, I think we'll win easily..." I was like uhm sorry what? "Oohhh I want you guys to win but I think we'll win easily..." 

    I nearly tripped her over in front of the whole school.

    Couple of beers in and the balancing act between nervousness and excitement has finally swung in the right direction. 
    Think we will get up by 3/4 goals tonight. 

    Im tipping Tmac to regain his early season form and kick 3. Also think Jack Viney will have his best game of the season and put in tackles in the double figures. Trac to have a big game too. 
    Go Dees

    Just spoke to the nephew (insane Dees member) who is sending me crowd pics from the ground as it build up, and some crowd action during the game.

    Getting nervous now.

    We need the boys to take care of business early.

     

    oops, should have said i will post them as they arrive.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
