    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: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
