My amatuer analysis concurs with your rain radar read

Feel like a late change might be on the cards.

B. Brown for ?

Absolutely sensational!!! It was a great result.  Watts ran so hard from half back to create the opportunity.  
And love the reaction. And Jeremy 💩Howe’s disappointing face 

Yes I always thought Jeremy Howe had a disappointing face. However in this instance he also looked disappointed 🙂

    It's a cliche but this is another huge game that we simply must win.  By whacking the filth  pretenders tonight we will tie up a top two finish and keep our flag defence at the G.

    I'll be driving The Manor's dog ute in tonight and meeting some Demonlanders for an early start on the booze. This will likely mean I'll need post match accommodation. ( Demonland sheilas feel free to offer)

    I reckon we'll win - let's get that straight, but expect the filth to come at us hard. Our defence will be key but expect super games from Clarrie and Max.

    BBB to kick 3!!

    The Manor's dog has  a ute? Clever woofer! 😆

    hope it's like that game in the rain against ninthmond early last year where we made a big statement

    Chook my image of you, rigid, bleached and washed up. Some may say like driftwood! 😄

    If Cox can't take a mark I'm not sure what else he provides?

    The two games he's destroyed us, it's been a dry track.

    No. That would have been The Manor's dog's ute. Different ute entirely.

    Of course. The Manor has an entire stable of utes ... 😆

    I feel the wet track will favour us more than them as it takes their fast/helter skelter offensive transition away from them a bit.

    I also feel that this post probably won't age well.

    Pretty much on the money. Apart from some half hitouts at stoppages maybe. 

    Absolutely woeful weather. Goddamn Victoria. It was glorious yesterday.

    I'm usually pretty calm before a game & don't really get nervous but I will be tonight. We just have to beat them. I could not fathom losing to them again.

    But last time we played them we had no gawn or may. 

    We have to win and win well

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
