This should be a ripper. Our boys fire up against the cats. I would imagine the cats have set themselves for a big game too.

Predicting Viney to have a huge game.

    We usually save our best for other contenders.  Here's hoping that continues tonight.

    Dees by 27. 

    BBB and Fritsch to combine for 8 goals. 

    Oliver BOG with 35 and a goal. 


    Ben Brown needs to play a big one and clunk a few.

    Harry Petty has a big job on Cameron as well.

    Dees by 17 points.

    Defeated them 3 times last year. We have their measure 

    Stengle has been a great pick-up though. We'll have to keep an eye on him 

    Beating them again in taxpayer park will be most satisfying

    A good old-fashioned thumping of the cats tonight might go some way to making you feel better, SPC!

    Forgot to give motherly advice

    Win this and the three-game losing streak is forgotten.

    They say being nervous and excited are the same emotion.

    I'm excited!

    I don't believe my actions can have any bearing on how the dees perform.

    Which is why I'm not worried posting this picture will in anyway jinx our chances tonight.

    Not worried at all. Not even a bit.

    Seemed the appropriate day to post it. It takes pride of place in my tv room and is the first thing I see when I walk in (we converted the garage into a sound proof TV room with huge TV etc etc - perfect because I can watch footy and not annoy the family or neighbours!).

    Thanks @Webber for the brilliant, beautiful art work. It looks amazing 

    And thanks @joeboy for the stunning framing.

    Love it

    The weather should really even the contest up.

    Hope Viney plays like last week and Clarry gets 45 & 2 around the carnage

    Coming off a tough contest against adelaide compared to geelong's training run against north will give us the edge. 

    We love using the wings but will need to straighten up on a narrow ground fit for junior football only. Win at the centre and win the game. Brown to snag 5.

    I could go a coconut rough right now.

    Go dees.

    The felines might come out of the blocks quicker than us, but we will wrest the ascendency by half time, and play the game on our terms after the break.  Another one of those games where, despite a close(ish) score line for much of the game, we will not be seriously challenged. Dees by around 5 goals.

    • 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.
