Finals footy, you can smell it in the air. So glad everyone here and more will finally get the chance to be there, you've all deserved it.

Those 2 finals at the G in 2018 were special and without doubt the highlight of my time following the Dees. So looking forward to tonight after the tedium of that goddam pandemic and watching our march last year from my sitting room

Pack the G to the rafters and blow the roof of the old place tonight fellow Dees tragics

On the game, Sydney won't know what hit them tonight.

Dees by 35 points

Funnily enough I missed the 2018 finals because I was travelling. My family was there and it looked sick!

Ironically, I was travelling again last year and got to see all the finals. The noise was incredible, particularly in WA. Never experienced anything like it watching the Dees.

Would like to think that after tonight, I’ll be saying ‘wow, the noise level even surpassed what occurred in WA last year’.  GO DEES!!

Jackson stays and we'll lock 'em in.

 

Win or lose tonight we'll be playing the Pies or Cats in a PF (if we make the PF) ... unless either the Dogs or Freo can win 2 finals

We can end up playing the Swans in a GF regardless of tonight's result

What a combo.

Just now, leave it to deever said:

What a combo.

I've noticed May often gets players quite taller than him but I guess May has the most strength out of our backline.

Special congratulations to Jayden Hunt who is the current Melbourne player (excluding Luke Dunstan) who has played the most games without ever playing in a final (112). Well deserved.

Sydney eliminated in first final last year. 

It will happen again.

Also finals experience and number played in, really helps.

We have much more finals experience than Sydney.

Their nerves will be sky high first ten minutes so I hope we put on 5 in that time.

No it won't. The loser tonight gets a second chance. (Will play Brisbane.)

I'm having to rehydrate something fierce to offset the nervous peeing already today.

Look what I can see from my apartment 😀

That was WCW a fortnight ago when still relatively calm. 

unrelated: does anyone know if there’s such a thing as Red Bull poisoning? Asking for a friend who’s bouncing off the walls already.
