    Not looking for anything big, just getting the four points and working our way into the season.

    It'll be a few rounds of just heads down hard work to start the season while we get everyone back on the park.

    (Quietly hoping Essendon are already falling in a heap by round 5 and that will be the game we first decide to really go nuts. You know, because, hate.

    Had a chat with a Dons friend on Friday.  Concluded that they're taxiing on the runway and maybe in 2024 they can take-off to land in the 8.

     Swooper would have this in a heartbeat. DBA4D5C6-E70C-4B24-9D2A-939B25DE8E01.jpeg.4223fb54d5eef77eec506ee3e0a6a96e.jpeg

    Redundant communist era propaganda from the brain’s trust at the Footscray Soviet. 

    Demons we are not intimidated by the bully boys from out west. Throw this puerile nonsense back over the Maribyrnong. The taller the monolithic facade the greater the fall.

    Spot on! We are adaptable and a conservative but winning opening to the season is sensibly achievable.  


    Win, lose or draw, I just hope we escape unscathed from that joke of a loose turf surface tonight. Then we can hit the road and hopefully it will be fine against Sydney in r3. Nervous.

    This is going to be my 5 week old son’s first MFC match. He’s been a member since the day he was born! I hope his lifetime of Dees supporting is more successful than mine.

    I'm confident. Boys have a point to prove this year.

    Dees by 25 points

    So looking forward to going tonight, been quite some time.


    We are on a mission in 2023, and I just know we won’t be leaving anything on the park tonight.  Best of luck to our debutants, and those wearing red and blue for the first time.  Dees by 4 goals.

    March premiers are obviously the filth.  Let us just quietly crush a few teams over the first 6 weeks and settle into the momentum of winning.  We will then know how the game is being played, and where we stand.  Dees by 32.

    Good luck to our 4 new debutants. Wear our colours with pride and put a muzzle on those pestering little bulldogs. Go Demons!!!

    Predicting Viney to intimidate them early and get 10 tackles. 

    Fritsch should clean up with 5+ goals

    May will dominate their tall timber and Salem will use his composure and skill off HB

     

    Uh oh

    • Haha 3

    can’t pick this one. dogs are into 2.20 but i’m surprised it’s not more. we have the best midfield in the comp. our defence is just good without May and our fwd line is average until proven otherwise. 

    this could be a shoot out as the dogs defence is poor. T Mac and Brown to kick 3-4 each

    wont be the end of the world if we lose. it’s a long season. i’d prefer to peak in Aug/Sept

    When you take on a team that’s over stacked with tall timber what better than the rain predicted in tonight’s weather forecast?

    Not sure if this is for Melbourne? BOM says only a 5% chance of rain tonight.

    Yesterday I saw a numberplate that read BBB8ON. I took it as a sign that Benny Brown was on for 8 goals tonight.

    Just a win with our new brand on show will be good enough for me. We’re missing 4 of our best 22 so I’m not expecting anything spectacular. Let the media froth over the Pies for the next month.

    Hoping we get close to 70k 🤞🏻

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
