    Don’t forget y’all…

    If you’re in Fed. Square this morning, pop over to the Demon Army’s sausage sizzle!

    A snag or five before you walk to the ‘G will warm you up on the inside AND provide more $$$ for FightMND. 

    Or even just come to say hello! I’ll be the jumpy one who’s running purely on coffee and Red Bull (lots of). 😃

    GO DEES!!!

    32 point win coming up.

     

    On paper we are the better team. No question

    We've got the blowtorch treatment all week. It will focus our minds i reckon

    The pies are in decent form themselves. This will not be a pushover

    I expect a response from our boys. Big performance coming up

    Dees by 25 points

    Hoping we turn things around today but fear we're in more trouble than we're ready to accept.

    Last year,  this year, we are a good footy team.

    all pleased when a player makes a debut.

    Good teams respond, as we will.

    It will be a very interesting game. Not easy.

    12 points either way Go Dees

    It's never a pleasant experience being the away side at the G against this mob. Actually considered watching this one on the box for all of 5 minutes. Does anyone know where the general admission areas will be down at the Punt Road end of the ground today as I want to have as few of these soap dodgers around me as possible?

    I was going to go to this game, only to find out the carpark is shut except for permit and disability. Not going to bother driving the 1.5-2hours and then try to find street parking somewhere. And the train is more expensive than driving for me. What’s the thinking having the ground closed for a game like this?

    This just happened:

    So I’m sitting on the steps of a disused building in Flinders Street coz no benches, having one last coffee before sausage duties. A guy walks past, I smile and nod coz me. He comes back and tries to give me a $10 note. Dude thought I was homeless!!! Of course I refused the money and tried to convince him that I am not a beggar. Two cops happened to walk by and heard us. One of the cops says, “nah mate, she’s definitely not doing it tough, have a look, she’s a Melbourne supporter.”🤣

    Various car parks around the city have on-line pre-booked car parking.

    For street parking best bet is the area east of Church street and walk 20 minutes.

    Surely you could park at Cranbourne and catch the metro train if the Bairnsdale line is too expensive. As for why Yarra Park is closed. Pretty simple - you could park there but you'd need a tractor to pull you out at the end of the game. You'd be catching the train home anyway.

    Wet weather results in park surface being cut up. This has been the policy for 10-15 years. Cannot say I disagree with it. Seems logical to me.

    From my experience you will end up in the third deck. Players look like ants. The alternative? Be surrounded by pies.

    Fed Sq car park is usually $15 for the day and that's where the 'Walk to the G' starts from, including a Dee Army BBQ etc. If you sway on your decision, that would be my plan.

    If our boys are serious we win this game 

    Brisbane, Fremantle and Carlscum all winning makes this even more important 

    Another loss to a team that is not a real contender would be a concern particularly with our relatively tough home stretch

    General Admission Areas:


    Shane Warne Stand
        •    Q1-Q6

    Ponsford Stand
        •    Q31-Q36 (rows AA-MM)

    Olympic Stand
        •    General Admission seating not available

    it only costs $3 more to upgrade to a reserved seat on level 4. GA areas are sold out so you’d have to get there very early if you want to get in.

    Joining the the early birds this dry season morning. But we're not giving an ornithologist's cuss about the magpie resurgence.

    Time for a serious cull Demons.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
