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

    Going to get ugly tonight...For Freo!

    . Demon pressure through the roof.

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

    Dees by 48.

    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: 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.
