GO DEES

Source?

(Indeed; GO DEES)

ย 

We have asked for it and it's a brilliant idea!!! Rubbing there noses in it, golly I think playing the song in the middle of the ground post game was rubbing there noses in it.


MCG?

Non-negotiable.

It seems as if some of our supporters on here are worried that we will lose if we play the GF replay as our season opener.

Why?

ย 

ย 

The AFL is averse to playing GF replays ย in round 1, so while it may happen itโ€™s no certainty.

Would be a fantastic way to open the season though- Our first Friday night game at the G since 2019.

It will give the Bulldogs a chance.

To humiliate themselves.


well, going on round 1 this year we were lucky we didn't come up against a good side

first game of season is always hard to find instant form

The Dees are in the entertainment business, the bulltish Blues v Tigs hasnโ€™t been entertaining for years. Letโ€™s hope itโ€™s another fizzer and a huge number tune in/go on the Friday (if we get the game that is). Great concept G Pert!

ย A win or loss is immaterial. Great way to reward supporters/ sponsors all the while getting a huge financial windfall for Club.

The AFL is not averse to $. They have hemorrhaged money for 2 years, the sooner they can get money flowing in the better. With the right weather there will be 90000 at the game. Double vacced of course.

GO DEES

Iโ€™d rather not play them. Iโ€™d rather a team we were almost certain to beat being that itโ€™s the first time we have raised the flag since 1965 and I donโ€™t want anything to spoil the night.

If I'm the Dogs, I recon I'm loving this draw.ย 

Why?ย 

I'll be there, but I hate rubbing their noses in it

We have had a dream season but we still donโ€™t beat teams we are certain to beat often enough. Better a tough game with players fired up by the occasion and opposition.

Embrace the challenge.ย 

Well, we gotta play them sometime so let's get it done so we can own them for another 3 months. It'll also mean that we'll be all over the media in the lead up to the new season with our game likely to overshadow the warm up act on the Thursday night.ย 

Yep love it

ย 

Lots

ย 

so the club has guaranteed we don't travel round 1

play a team with similar preparation as us to start the season

a packed MCG to unfurl the flag, possibly 90K+

and they get the $$$ in early just in case covid rears its ugly head again later in the season

ย 

I don't know I kind of feel weird playing the dogs. It's like we will already give them extra motivation afterall they will want revenge obviously. Also I'm sorry but if the situation was the other way around and we lost, I would hate to sit there as a fan watching them raise the premiership flag. I couldn't stomach it and the dogs fans aren't that bad.ย

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sundayโ€™s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourneโ€™s memorable premiership triumph.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, weโ€™ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binmanโ€™s Stats Files. Not because it isnโ€™t important; quite the opposite. Itโ€™s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourneโ€™s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last yearโ€™s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although itโ€™s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sundayโ€™s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to foolโ€™s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven Kingโ€™s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
