Yeah, was more referring to where someone said they had the group cheer in the middle similar to when it's announced someone will debut.

I reckon you're spot on. Good detective work!

    Yeh well I think part of the reason Melk has come in to play that role is because of the trouble we've had with our own key talls either being outmarked or positioned by key defenders so his inclusion was born out of necessity. 

    Harmes is just too vanilla for me. And if he doesn't have a lock down role, I'd much rather us explore a more dynamic mid to take his place at season's end. A player with composure and great ball use. 

    Have you identified the tree this player grows on?

    Gates open at 415 Dub, so I'm guessing the sheilas start shortly thereafter.

    FFS mate. It's not 1973.

    And best of all, $2 pies from 4.15 until the start of the main game. When was the last time you could buy a pie at the footy for $2? Another very good reason to attend. It almost convinced me to book a flight to the G.

    $2 Rat Coffin is a pretty sick deal.

    You occasionally remind me of Range Rover, who was a particularly heinous and nauseating poser on here years ago.

    Ahh good old Rangey..

    I had my suspicion he came back as Olisik, but I think even big O was still kicking around when Rangey was active.

    Surely he's come back under another name?

    It is a worry that Carlton has 4 tall backs against our 1 tall forward ready to take many marks in the last quarter.

    Yes.

    No changes.

    Same old same old.

    But here's hoping this ossified selection comes out and belts the blues ...the team that is.

    Let us show that we are a true finals threat by not just winning, but demolishing Carlton that he game that will become known as the August Massacre.

    I am seriously worried about not winning the gf this year or even being in it and it ain't a flare up of Mfcss.

    I'm not alone. Too many players a fair way off their best.

    This game needs to be won by us by a huge margin.

    We the faithful have been finally rewarded a flag and although won in Perth it doesn't detract or taint any of its glory or merit.

    Buy how wonderful to see us win one on our home ground, so many can go and see it rather than a digital version.

     

    Go Dees.

     

    Enjoy  the game Mr DS and company.

    Can someone give us the consensus view on final teams?

    Casey team article suggests Harmes playing, not sure if that's std or he's actually confirmed?

    Others thought Laurie would debut, potentially in place of Pickett, does that leave Tomlinson as Sub?

    Just a compilation of rumours and Demonland posts...

    Kozzy may miss with a sore knee.

    Chandler and Bedford have COVID.

    Some discussion whether the excited little crowd of players was excited enough to indicate a Laurie debut.

    Then it gets intriguing because if Kozzy was to miss Laurie seems a better replacement than Harmes, but should it be Harmes then you wouldn't think we'd debut Laurie (or JVR) as sub... Which then leaves Tommo as likely sub.

    It's a bit like an episode of Bold and the Beautiful this week...

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
