Good seeing Rob Sitch rolled out to discuss us on Fox. I remember when I saw him last. It was in the Qantas Lounge in 2018 in Perth having just watched our team get smacked in the prelim. Come on, Melbourne.

A genuine legend of Aussie comedy. He would’ve needed every funny bone to get through the last 50 years.

Whoever it is, hopefully it doesn’t come in the 3rd quarter

How is the crowd in terms of Melbourne v Geelong split?

Still building obviously but I reckon it will be 75-25% our way. Obviously quite a few people dressed neutrally so will get a better idea once the game starts. 

Signing out until the end of the game.

Whatever happens tonight, I'm so bloody proud of the players, coaches and everyone involved today.

It's been one of the most enjoyable seasons as a Melbourne supporter ever.

Go Dees ❤💙

Resize your pic before posting either by using a photo edit suite, or cropping it.

(open it with MS Paint and there is a resize option... or email it to me and i will do it)

Loved hearing Garry Lyon talk about former teammates sitting in there lounge rooms in their Melbourne jumpers pumped for the game. 
 

Nerves are off the charts but how good is it sitting down to watch a Preliminary Final that where in and are favourites.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
    This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
