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.

[Demon Jack 6,931]

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!!!!!

‘94 still a great picture but 4:3 is a bit of a drag!!

[Jack7 528]

Not the slightest bit nervous

 

We play our game,we win by 40+

 

3 weeks ago,we kicked the last 8 goals of the game against them,they couldn't go with us,they have 10 30+ old men

 

We had a 14 day break,they will tire again after half time

 

Easy Win and into the GF!!!

[4_Kent_Watts 897]

After reading everyone's posts one things certain for me, I'm getting very nervous and I'm gonna need the tissues regardless of the result before the nights out. Go Ds Go.

Mate if you crack that. Take photos

i think i still have a Shane Woewodin 2000 Port. I must find it!!!

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???!

[Maldonboy38 6,406]

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. 

[david_neitz_is_my_dad 4,084]

Looks like some of you are going to be peaking really early 🤣

[Bring-Back-Powell 15,065]

Don't flick on fox footy at the moment.

A certain heart breaker in 2018 is on between these 2 mobs.

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!
