When’s the podcast this week? I’m going to need to hear Binman’s overconfidence to calm the nerves. 

Monday night @ 8:30pm

I need it too.

I was brimming with confidence on Friday night and then I watched the Bulldogs game. I need @binman to tell me we got this to make it through the next 12 days or so.

    Andy: goooooooood evening demonlanders, the demons beat geelong by 83 points but with the dogs thrashing Port Adelaide in the other game my MFCSS is worse than ever and I can’t help but think this is just setting us up for the greatest of disappointments, losing the grand final in a repeat of 1954.

    George: If beating the cats three times in one season hasn’t cured your MFCSS yet nothing will.

    binman: Don’t worry Andy, we’ll smash em, absolutely smash em.

    This is perhaps the most accurate description of our podcast.

    One man's over confidence is another's being realistic!

    My two favourite lines from Titus’s Knee Jerk Reaction
     

    Max Gawn looks like a Viking, and he treated Geelong like it was a small medieval monastery on the coast of England.


    This pressure showed when Joe Selwood complained about a fifty-metre penalty given against him, which was like watching an arsonist complaining that they got burnt.

    If anyone is feeling bored or looking to get that warm fuzzy feeling I suggest watching the replay of this prelim and just take note through the entire broadcast who the no1 high five'r/celebrator/hugger is after every goal/spoil/pressure act.

    Tom "Fridge" Sparrow

    once you see it it's hard to not to notice how much of a team roll the kid played Friday night.

    The future is bright post Jack Viney!

    How was he, in the back of frame, jumping up like a fan in the front row when Maxxy clunked the pack mark in the third!

    I didn’t notice it live but after 16 replays, the goal ANB kicked in the first quarter was all due to Sparrow deliberately knocking the ball down to him after jumping over Esava. Kid is playing some sort of a role.

    Classic stuff, thanks @FarNorthernD. Napoleon had his "Waterloo" moment - Geelong had their "Lindesfarne" moment.

    (and no I'm not referring to Lindesfarne Tasmania)

    Watching the Prelim with the SEN commentary. Gerard Healey calling non free kicks for Geelong whilst frees the we get are lucky. I can’t work out if he dislikes Melbourne more than I dislike him

    The same in the Grand Final when Picket went down ahead of the Brayshaw goal, most were calling for a free to Pickett, taken high, but Gerard described it as “that was a serious throw from Kozzy Pickett”.

    What the hell are you talking about? Healy was on us from early in the season. Didn’t drop off when we had our dip mid year. Not everyone has a nefarious agenda against you.

    Yes, and he was super confident in his pre-game on the couch show tipping Dees by 4 goals.

    Pickett doesn’t get many frees for someone who cops a lot of head high tackles!! In comparison to Selwood is unbelievable!

    Melbourne torching Geelong in this game from  5 min mark onwards was excellent, and then to hear Coach excuse Scott topped it off! Just grand!! Max’s 5 was ok to, particularly the 4 in the 3rd, just outrageous!

    In my season rewatch I reached the prelim final last night. Unlike most games where I watch one quarter an evening this one I watched in one sitting.

    It is arguably the most comprehensive performance of the season. Other than missing a few gettable goals in the second? quarter it was near faultless.

    The GF was special and no one will forget that 35 odd minutes of domination but I think this game was the pinnacle performance wise.

    Obvious kudos to Max but the performances by Brown, Spargo, Petty ANB..the list goes.... on are what should stand us in good stead in the coming season.

    I’d have to watch them again but I felt the rnd 12 Brisbane game was our most complete, they were up and firing, have us a real contest… Cats were terrible the Prelim, god I love it!! Long may it continue.

    Thought I'd watch the Dogs v Port Prelim

    I had almost forgotten that we were fish and chip wrappers by Monday.

    Footy is a funny game

    I still find it amazing that Hinkley has kept his job. 
    i really like Ken as a person, but that Performance from Port, at Home, should have been a Coach Killer…

    What is he going to say to them now?

    Port were diabolical that night.

    Doubt they laid one tackle in the first half.

    I'm no Healy sympathiser, but Kozzie did just lift the ball up when on the ground. But he should have got the free for too high 3 seconds earlier. Ump squaring off?

    Healy drives me nuts when commentating as it seems he always looks for negatives.

    And do you notice how he inhales very loudly before making a comment!

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
