3.12am and I can't sleep - and the Gameday thread is already up!  Gotta love Demonland!

Go Dees - get the job done and the remaining games will look a whole lot less formidable!

    Confident going into this.

    The key focus over the week would have been defence and pressure!

    If ever there was a season defining game it would be this.

    An AFL game played on an oval which will have an extremely dangerous surface! MADNESS!

    Win or lose, It might be season defining for both teams, if it's an epic tussle that proves Freo (and us) have very strong premiership credentials.

    It would be awesome to smash them and begin a campaign of demolition again, but the neutral in me kind of wants an epic match of the year contest where both clubs play a brand of ruthless defensive pressure to the death, that makes Geelong and their media sycophants [censored] themselves about another prelim disappointment. Carn the Doggies at GMHBA too!

    I’m bizarrely confident about tonight’s game although I could sleep much. 

    Only 14 hours til first (recalled) bounce!

    I want to see pressure, intensity and desperation. A return to our 2021 brand

    And some inside F50 tackles please

    The march to the flag starts tonight

    I'm buoyed by the news of Brayshaw's re-signing and hope the players have had a similar boost.

    With no evidence at all to back me up, I just feel that a corner has been turned and we'll win tonight in the first step towards a strong finals run.

    That first line says it all. Bring that, and we win this and it sets us up for the next 3. If we don't, then it says a lot about our chances from here. 


    Boys will go BANG tonight. Top 2 spot maintained.

    Odds watch. 

    Opened 1.90 equal favs, which seemed fair enough given the form lines of both sides, the relative ladder positions and the fact the game is on freo's home deck. And surely no-one would be keen to trust us with their money given we are apparently not hungry or ruthless enough

    Into 1.86 soon after.

    Into 1.80 by Tuesday (even after it was announced bb wasn't playing).

    Into 1.77 on Wednesday.

    Remarkably, on game day, now into 1.72.

    The weather might be a factor, but today's forecast is that whilst plenty of rain will fall today, and so the ground will be slippery, it will clear by the arvo.

    I wonder if Lobb is going to be late out?

    May drift, but unlikely to get into anything shorter than 1.80.

    The pros must really think we will magically rediscover our 'hunger'.

    Because being people who make a living out of punting by being hard nosed, unemotional realists put a lot of stock in such nebulous concepts.

    Pretty confident today. Reckon Brayshaw will play his [censored] off.

    Thought I'd randomly check weather radar. Wet deck on a dodgy ground that recently had turf changed.

    What could go wrong.

    Pros must believe we will suddenly remember how to pressure, run both ways, be sharper with skills, be mentally more ruthless, have greater inside 50 connection. Can’t think of any other factors :))

    • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

      It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

    • 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?
