That’s a huge ask seeing as many of us are here, not in WA. 
Maybe the WA Demons fans will do it!!!

As well as WCE fans coz Freo.

Forgot WCE… easily done 😆

I’m ready - defibrillator charged, pacemaker checked, catheter in situ and cannabis oil close by. Bring it on.

    I'm expecting Freo to make a late change and bring in Terry Alderman. He will be impossible to keep out on that wing.IMG_6374 copy.png

    Is there an article on this, or inside info 

    The boys need to eyeball each other and say “let’s go”

    Just my take on the comments of Richo, Gus, Trac and Goody in the media, sounds like the players have been told they're on the verge on letting the season slip away and need to get back to our selfless values that made us great in 2021 or it'll be one that got away.

    MFCSS has me in its grip. That, and im not convinced by our form over the last month.

    Tipping Freo by 20-30 points and a long week of us getting slagged off by the media.

     

    Maybe Gus signing on will give us a boost somehow. 

    Make me eat my words Dees.

    Gameday once again huh? Seems to come around on a pretty regular basis during my summer months ..... and how good is that.

    Finished breakfast and the morning coffee and will now do a bit of work until Game Time.

    12.10pm start time for me so it will be a late lunch with a few glasses of wine after the win.

    Dees By a lot......

    Just looked at the Radar and it appears to be clearing but no doubt soft underneath. Dees by 28 points.

    Yeah it’s super blustery mate

    . Demon pressure through the roof.

    We find our ruthless side again, and Freo have no answers.

    Do we know the medical sub yet?

    IF Tommo I guess they would be worried about May and or Lever, otherwise probably Chandler. 

    Looks like Chandler is out warming up on the ground

    Tonight will tell a lot about our hunger to win it all this season. Players should be stung by the earlier meeting where they belted us in the contest and on the scoreboard on our own patch.

    When teams have really upped the physicality this season we just haven't responded well enough. It's going to take a full 4 quarters of intensity tonight, including finding a way to drag ourselves back up when things are going against us.

    Do we have it in us?

    The most up-beat, positive, optimistic game-day thread in D'land history.

    Suggest we run the game time posting as a separate thread so we can run a comparative study?

    I read somewhere it’s Dunstan. I was sure it was on the MFC website that I read it, but can’t find it now.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
