A win against Sydney sees us play the winner of Freo and the Dogs in the Prelim

    Good bit of proactive coaching by the coaching team to bring Harmes into the team with everyone speculating that he would be a defensive tag on Neale. From the first bounce we backed our midfield to win the attacking matchups. 
     

    I think it may have thrown the Lions coaches as they had planned on something very different.

    We were on the front foot from the very first and had Harmes as a plan B if anyone got ff the leash.

    excellent coaching

    Jon Ralph. What a stinker. Campaigning against Answerth, when he realises Richmond playing Brisbane W1 of finals.

    Not to sure about that Jnrmac. We beat Swans we go direct to the Prelim however the winner of Freo/Dogs, being a elim final would play a loser of a qual final.

    Not quite, jnrmac.  The winner of Freo/Dogs would first have to play a semi in week two against the loser of Geelong/Collingwood for the right to meet us in the PF should we beat Sydney.

    edit:  snap!

    Well folks, I've just come out of surgery or so it seems,  to have the middle lobe of my right lung removed because of a growth in the collapsed lung and my diaphragm piltrated (stiched down).

    Don't want to bore you all with the ****ty stuff, but I must say timing of this operation was of not my doing. 

    To my elation I was to be at the hospital at 6.30 am Friday to be prepped  for a morning procedure that would  likely last 4 hrs. So I'm thinking start at 9 finish at 1 gimee time to come around to watch the game. Didnt allow for the effects of the ongoing drip fed ketamine and oxycodone .

    So to say it appeared as a dream is an understatement. In and out of consciousness but managed to see the whole game (I think) unless I have died and gone to heaven.

    I had surgery the day before the Carlton game. I was delighted to find that the in room entertainment system had the Kayo app so I spent my recovery watching all our finals games from last year finishing with the GF just before I was discharged. I was very tempted to go to the Carlton game that night but would have definitely popped all my stitches when Kossie sealed it for us.

    Already been said I think but it's still awesome to watch how we transitioned the ball from D50, the dare and speed we had on the ball and the courage to go quick through the corridor was phenomenal. 

    As Goody would want, that was as ruthless a performance as we have dished out this year. 

    Can't wait for finals, go dees!!

    Stocks down: The stat sheet will say Jayden Hunt played a decent game but we're not convinced he's in Melbourne's best 22, or 23. Too many mistakes and could be found out in September when the heat is ratcheted up.

    Stocks down: The only thing which could derail the Cats' pursuit of that premiership is injuries.

    Raynor should hire Paddy Cripps' QC. Worth every cent apparently

    Has anyone seen footage of the Answerth suspension?  He got the week suspension for striking ANB (intentional, body contact and medium impact) which I think most assume resulted in the ANB spew, but I haven't seen any footage which is pretty unusual these days.

    There was some blurry behind the goals footage which didn't show much

    Edit see Demonlands post at the top of this page. Jon Ralph twitter.

    Cheers for that.  Stupid way to miss a final.

    The way that Zorko has tried to deflect from his gutter mouth by saying he was provoked was disgusting.

    The AFL should have acted on him and Brisbane should remove the Captaincy.

    • 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?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
