For a team sitting top of the ladder I don't have alot of confidence in our ruck stocks.

Weid gets his final chance. I hope he takes it.

Not that I’m excited or anything but…this is my FIRST EVER interstate match!!!  🥳

Look out Adelaide, there’ll be a coven of footy mums behind the goals and make no mistake… we’re NOT to be taken lightly!

GO THE MIGHTY DEES!

Go you good thing

Well, I am off to bed. Been a big day of celebration over my way with a birthday in the family. 
 

will be watching over breakfast and a coffee.

I have confidence in our systems and structures.

Witches? 😉

The only thing that concerns me is the inside info Burgess has on our player stengths/weakeness, game structures etc. 

Crows will be all out to get a fast start.  We will need to be alert early for new tactics, after all they surprised us with a winning game plan last year, without Burgess. 

If we can get the fast start, kick straight and take the crowd noise out we will be well on our way.

Had hoped this would be a % booster and we win by the 6-8 goals.  Now thinking a win of 3-4 goals, even without a recognised ruckman.  A game to bank the 4 points and move on.

The pressure’s right back on today in the absence of our two ruckmen. 

Our list management and recruiters have done a solid job in recent years but it was obvious at draft time last year that there was potential for today’s scenario. Apart from Max and Dogga, all we had was 195cm Majak Daw in the twilight of his career and the likes of TMac, Weed, the Browns and maybe Tomlinson who are makeshift at best. They  sidestepped the issue at the National Draft and didn’t address it at Midseason Draft time so let’s hope that it doesn’t blow up in our face today.

WCW ... hope you have an enjoyable day at the footy.

Where is everyone else going to watch the match? If anywhere. I'm going to the Sporting Globe in Richmond.

Yep! Especially when any of the boys are unduly disparaged. 😉

JK, of course.
But M Brown, the walking vomit emoji (on DL, anyways), is one such player.  Shazza Neal-Bullen is very fond of “Mitchy.” Join the dots. 😁

Went to the sport Adelaide game earlier in the year.Enjoyed the non 4&20 pie and found the glass of red wine very full.! Enjoy 

So I went on my belated honeymoon this week to the Whitsundays and got covid on day 1. I thought though… at least I’ll get to watch a drubbing on Saturday. so screw Jackson, I damn well expect a drubbing. 
 

jump high young Mbrown.

Went to many interstate games most even but

a lot of youthful emotions etc

 

mum was never there. Or dad !

More notes


I’m waiting to board and there’s a group of sadsack Carlton supporters. I thought, look at those poor chumps, dejectedly going home to Sadelaide having attended last night’s match. But now I just hope that’s not me tomorrow. 😬

I was supposed to be there but my plans fell through. Work got in the way

Have a great day WCW

Hypothetical

You're in hospital likely to be discharged today after spending the day in ED yesterday with a cardiac 'issue'.

Assuming discharge goes ahead, would you:

- watch the Dees game live on the TV

- only watch after knowing the result?

We're much better than the Crows with or without a recognised ruck man.

There'll be no boil-over this year. Dees by 39 points

I wouldn’t waste any time Luci, I’d send Harmes straight to Burgo. 

We’ve had great ruckmen for the last, what 30 years?, and we have been pretty [censored] in all that time - only last year did we win the premiership. I’d suggest that  ruckmen are simply show bag fillers, and we can still win this easily  even without our 2 best big men - because we have strength all over the ground and a midfield that don’t need silver service to perform.  Go Dees

(please don’t tell Max and LJ I called them show bag fillers). 

 

We should still be fresh and after last year surely wont take them lightly. Big job for Weid to halve the ruck contests and our mids to shift to sharking their taps. Looking forward to seeing another week of ANB, Spargo, Koz and TBed swarm the forward pressure.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
