I’m randomly tearing up now. God help me. Two more hours. 

 

@Return to Glory, missing our Grand Final pilgrimage this year. Nevertheless, having a beer now and soaking up all the pre-game coverage - hoping I’ll make it to the opening bounce!! Go Dees!! Next year at the G.

Have medical subs been confirmed? 

7 news said it was Jordon on Thursday night, but it doesn’t get picked until an hour before the game I thought…

 

Watching the all blacks first.   Then the man event

final team sheets are 90 mins before the bounce, i believe


They just showed the players out on the ground. Hunty is there. Could he be the sub after all?

And just in case we needed another omen, US Ryder Cup team (favorites) fixed up Europeans on the first day. What were they wearing? RED AND BLUE STRIPES! 
Dees by 30

 

Ugh the storm are currently losing. I've switched over to the 7 coverage. Boys are currently out on the field. 

Oh it's nearly game time. 

Well done all you Non Dee Perthites for a projected full stadium and more so if they support us. Great to have a crowd and a reasonably big one at that.

You'd expect that we'd need at least one emergency other than the sub to warm up, in case of a late emergency, so even if Jordon is the sub, Hunt would have to be ready just in case.

Jon Ralph just confirmed on Fox Footy that Michael Hibberd will sign a new 1 year deal.

I love Daisy. More importantly, I respect her. ❤️💙

Thanks Dazzle. I've always been a big fan. Always hard at it. Great decision maker and works exceptionally hard. Provides a good physical presence  and despite age and size is reasonable quick.Totally locked down a few classy players including dusty.

Came in late this season and immediately had a big impact. Yes dropped off a little towards the end of season but hugely instrumental in setting up our early domination and I'm wrapped he's been rewarded with an extension.

Less than 2 hours to go!

I don't know what else to do. I've done some baking, swept, had a drink, cleaned the kitchen, had a drink, swept again (first effort bad or the little man is eating something crumbly that I didn't give him), and reorganised the pantry. I even reformatted an old piece of junk laptop. Oh, there was another drink in there somewhere.

What the hell am I supposed to do now?

[censored] me it’s like someone’s died at my place, going to have to put on some music and liven things up. 
 

Never again this late….

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
