    Not a walk-up win at all. Gold Coast have a good system, and players are finally learning to play to it. Midfield battle will be very, very good. Our forwards will be the difference.

    • Brown is looking like he will challenge for the Coleman medal.
    • Fritsch the freak is difficult to manage.
    • Spargo and ANB work so hard and run their opponents into the ground.
    • Kozzie is primed to tear a game apart. 

    On top of this, it is impossible to counter both Trac and Bang-Bang Oliver running forward at stoppages. 

    Dees by 28 points in a wet grind.

    This is a danger game, particularly early in the season in wet and greasy conditions. They are hard but not slick at the contest and have some forwards with tricks at the fall of the ball that can be tough when on. Our maturity and elite endurance should allow us to come over the top but anyone that thinks this is not a danger game early in the season may end up with a surprise. 

    And there's the old dland I've come to know and love.😁 but I'm with you.

    But it's hard to gauge opposition in the early stages I guess.

    Enjoy the game lrfe.

    I am a trident member and don't have access to away games. Anyone have spare tickets I can use for the game?

    Happy to offer my Trident seats for home games in return as I only go to 2-3 MCG games a year.  I live in Brisbane.

    Should win this easily. 
    Just like we should have beaten Adelaide last year.

    This is exactly the sort of match the dees lose - beat a top team and then drink our own bathwater, get ahead of ourselves and falter the next week against bottom team.

    Hold on a minute... how did that post from 2019 appear? Weird tech issue alert

    Your poor old Uncle Bitter had planned to give Metricon a boost by attending in person. Unfortunately ........you know.. circumstances changed..... and spectating shall take place in the The Manor's modest theatrette. Hopefully in the company of an immodest maid.

    While the Suns have some very handy up and comers , and may even, finally, become competitive they will be no match for the Dees.

    A comfortable 39 point victory beckons.

    I’m not panicked. We should win. I am just a realist that the Suns up there on a slippery night is not a walk in the park.

    Beautiful day on the Goldy so far today.

    Fingers crossed for a dry run at them and no stupid lightening stoppages as storms are predicted tonight.

    Doing some obligatory shopping with the other half before we head off for a long boozy lunch somewhere.

    Ubers pre-booked as public transport to Carrara is a hot mess.

    Go Dees

    Gaahh stop making me feel nervous. I was sweet as a nut last week but seeing all of you nervous nelly's... 

    I've said it in other threads but I'm mainly just fascinated to see how we handle each and every game and in game situation. Last week as I mentioned I said to my mate "this is a massive challenge, can't wait to see how we look to wrest control back and we did it with aplomb. This week, as others have said out ability to keep teams to low scores will hold us in good steed most weeks and this week will be no different. They don't have the defence or maturity in the mids to stick with us the whole game. Dees by 30 - 45.

    Hopefully we’ve prepared for this game the same way we did against GC last year - by spending 12 hours trapped on a plane.

    We haven’t dropped a game since that fateful day on the tarmac.

    Are people really getting nervous over a round two game against Gold Coast?  If so it's going to be a long year!

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
