    I get the merit of this but that hit from Long on Simmonds was a dog act. This video lionises it. Yeah I was triggered.

    All I asked for my birthday is a Melbourne win. Let’s Go Dees!

     

    Also please Melbourne fans come and be loud! Make noise and get the umpires on our side and lift the boys. We missed out last year and it still hurts. Don’t take this opportunity for granted. 

    Hope you had a good birthday regardless Jaded. As someone who's birthday usually falls on QB it can be dangerous hoping for a result for birthday happiness.

    Will be watching Bailey Fritsch very closely tonight. Last year, his increased physicality and attack on the ball and man from the start of the finals told me that through all levels of the group they knew what was going to be required to win it all, and they were prepared to do it.

    It's going to take that level of pressure, and probably more because our opponents are stronger this year, to get it done.

    In my mind, if we match or exceed Sydney's pressure around the ball tonight, we win. Wouldn't surprise me if they follow Collingwood's tactic of almost conceding the in close contest to us, to try and harass us and turn us over on the way out. We need to put them under massive pressure whenever they are near the ball to counter this.

    Hehe, yes. When you think about it we only need 6 more finals wins for a three peat. Get it done boys, how hard can it be?!

    It was. I'm sorry rpfc to trigger you on such a big day. I wish I'd dubbed some Dees footage from last year's gf.

    Just think of our win.

    Interesting that Swans fwd line isn't tall either....they have paps and Heeney...we have Fritta and Milk.

    Bbb and Franklin are the big talls.

    If Max can go fwd and please God kick true then it could be difficult for the Swannies.

    Logan Mcdonald is the one that interests me. Just need to make sure we are doing what we do well very well tonight. As mentioned I think their smalls are going to score on us, that's a given. Must control what we can control.

    It's been a while since Anb and Sparticus have kicked bags. Here's hoping along with Kozzie and Jv they add quite a few.

    If Max is there at least the ball is marked or on the ground.

    Taking my 9yo daughter to her first finals game at the G! Both super pumped.

    I've shown her some of the goals (Hannan and Melky) from our 2018 finals campaign and given her a sample of the crowd noise, but nothing beats the sound of it live. I'm getting shivers down my spine just recalling it. Reckon she will have a smile from ear to ear when we kick that first goal!

    Can't wait!

    SAME!!! Usually a bundle of nerves on GameDay but today feels different. 
    I’ve actually managed to successfully eat something this morning, as opposed to my standard GameDay brekkie fare of ☕️ ☕️ ☕️ and 🚬 🚬 🚬🚬

    • 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.

    • 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?
