Now I'm nervous just having watched Melbourne Storm play just off the boil and go down by 4 points. Mighty game but they were just a tick off the whole way.

Smoke and mirrors I reckon.

Harmes or Viney will go straight to him IMO.

Totally agree. Worked a charm the first time and it's not a game we can afford him having any impact early on. 10 minutes of Libba untagged could mean a couple of goals. Not worth it.

    Just organising some last minute reinforcements of Chardonnay now, all set for what we all hope will be a historic next few hours. 

     

    I've felt like I've been unusually calm the past few weeks...especially reading the extreme (by comparison) feelings of other people on socials.

    It's hit me this afternoon though...starting with that video of the past player messages. It got to the point where my better half suggested I might need to go for a bit of a walk around the block (done). 

    Part of me is so jealous that I'm not there...we upgraded our memberships a few years back for the Grand Final guarantee. Anywho there are tons in the same boat, and also those with more investment in the club than me..past players, players partners and families etc.

    We did pass our barcodes on to one of my wife's school friends, a Freo fan. She and her son are there and absolutely cheering for the Dees. She sent this photo a few minutes ago of Goody photobombing them! Thinking of turning the phone off now for my own mental health. Love youse all at Demonland, see you on the other side.

    Go Dees.

    No late changes…

    Thé game starts at 11:15 am for me. I’ve never developed a taste for morning alcohol but I’ll start at half time.

    Here’s the plan… If we’re well in front at half time I’ll have a rosé or three. If it’s very close, I’ll go for white. And if we’re in trouble, red. If we’re so far behind we can’t win it, I’ll opt for Spirytus Vodka. 


    Sitting down to watch the Grand Final with your team in it, what a feeling. Bring our A game and this is going to be some night. 

    In my year at school , ( a long time ago)we had 3 dee fans , im in melb , one is overseas and one is in stadium near the cheer squad , im living thru him vicariously

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
