    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

    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.

    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 🤞🏻

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
