Same crowd at dogs v hawks last night as Melb vs syd. A lot less than Melb vs bris. Pathetic. Looking forward to Caro's bake.

 

Tonight I am at Rod Laver to see Disney on ice with my GD,s.  And this reminds me of how stupid outdoor night sporting events in Winter melb. are. No harder to get here than the footy and it is pleasant inside and not an umpire in sight.

I took my daughter to see Disney on Ice when she was little, but it was disappointing.

Turned out to be just an old bloke in a cryogenic chamber.

Or opposition supporters.

Notice any scratch marks of him trying to get out?

Bump.

Ok, so I know this isn’t a finals game, is on TV, and involves movement of your decaying and decrepit bodies BUT…

It would be great if you got out there to the G this Friday…

The Upside Down! I know it well.

If you see 13 year olds that look like 22 year olds - don’t even think about it, just kill ‘em! They trouble.


These are the games we live for as supporters. 2nd v 3rd. Prime time home game. Against an arch enemy.

Let's pack the G in red and blue. If you don't you'll be sorry you missed it I guarantee.

Either way the "G" Will be absolutely packed, hopefully many of us.

We've had another week with lower volume training and should be running fitter and better than even the Freo game, oh how sweet it would be to roll them by 40-50 points and show them who's boss in front of the footy world.

For so many years we could we only dream of playing in big games, let alone winning them. Now we've got half a dozen in a row. These are the days.

I think there is a very strong chance of this happening. My sense is that the Pies are really struggling with fitness as they are a young side and will naturally be fatiguing at this time of year. 

Will be a intense Q1 but cant see this one going down to the wire.

You're right . I'm sorry already I'm going to miss it. I did make it to Perth. So have to be thankful for minor mercies. But nothing will be better than watching those feral animals being put to the sword. Hope they are ahead for the first 6 minutes so they think they're going to win and then we put the pedal to the metal and obliterate them. Not that anyone needs to worry about denting their percentage which is the lowest top 3 percentage anyone can remember.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
