    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: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
