    I’m about to head over to the Pineapple as well! I’m staying down the road at Bates Motel. 😳 I wish I was kidding. This place is a little creepy now in daylight. I imagine it’ll be scary af in the dark tonight. Good times. 

    never mind, when we win tonight you can spend all night celebrating in the safety of the pub

    Game has tightened up with the bookies. Fritta is due for a bag and Kossie to star tonight.

    No wonder you can't go find Pablo on the supermarket shelves anymore. I think it has been renamed Draino.

    I was thinking of going to the sporting globe in Geelong, if that helps

    Anyone else?

     

    I do believe we are more than capable of stitching Brisbane a brand new one.   We are more than good enough. We should win easily. And last year changed my outlook, we can be a great side,  but almost 50 years of MFCSS is very much ingrained.

    This is the start of the Finals,  just gunna sit next to the box and watch    Good Luck Dees   not really needed  Make your own Luck.

    This is one of the predictions I would make up.

    But I do believe that about Frittata and Kozzie... well he is just getting better and better every day.

    I'm calling out Trac and Max to have a big influence as well.

    Charlie Cameron COULD win it with just 4 kicks if the ball hits the deck which it seems to be doing more often recently.

    I don't know about Kossie but Fritsch needs to kick 3+ or we're stuffed

    I went to the Bentleigh club once about 7 years ago to watch a game and was told to be quiet by some old duck when yelling out go Max.

    It was all too quiet and lacked any atmosphere. 

    Not fussed we sold it and just at the peak of the market.

    Good job.

    Let's hit our peak form tonight and keep winning all the way until we our celebrating back to back flags in person at the G this year.

    Now that's an idea! I have a full bottle of Finlandia - is it any good? Might be a pleasant change from the old Bundy and Coke. The nerves certainly think it is warranted. Advice, please....

    Either of our players you mentioned could do likewise. Maybe milkshake will do it again.

    But I think it will bbb who leads the goal scoring bw both clubs.

    I’ve known it since it was Spargo’s. Just around the corner from where I used to live. Enjoy the game. 

    I'm feeling confident. But gee this game is just so important. 

    We deserve to finish top 4 after sitting there all year

    I hope you live near Geelong...otherwise it would be cheaper to get a months kayo as opposed to driving that far with petrol prices as they are.

    I have Kayo and in Wollongong it's on free to air.

    I'll watch it hopefully not curled up in the foetal possie.

    I was wondering when I listened to a game on the radio last.

    We are so spoiled for choice compared to 40 years ago...the only tv telecast was match of the round.....usually cwood.

    But if I dint go to the G as a teenager....listening on the radio seemed fun and while one often had no idea what was really going on at times ...wherevthe ball was etc.....it was still enjoyable.

    Weird that every game was played on a sat for the most part.

    Imagine that now. How much more work I would actually do.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • 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.

      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.
