    Sitting in another £&#@@ing airport waiting for another &£#@ing flight. Takes off an hour before the bounce and lands 3 hours after. An hour stopover before another flight. Then a 4 hour stopover before the final flight not even sure there will be internet coverage at the final stopover. 
     

    it’s a great life...... at least that is what I keep telling myself.

    confidence in the team to trot out winners by 5 goals

    go Dees

    PS. Sorry about the underline. Brain fade

    Will Clarry play off half-back during the game, or was that just for the trial?

    Have we already received our members scarves or do we need to collect them before the game?

    I seem to remember receiving one when my membership arrived but I can't find it anywhere.

    Can’t pick up scarves at the ground anymore anyways.

    I got mine with the membership package 

    I forgot about it and couldn’t remember where I put it… spent 20 minutes searching for it only to find it in the backpack I normally take to games 🤦‍♀️
     

    edit: just got a text from my dad “did we get scarves? Where is mine?”…. How do I know where you put your scarf man?!

    Can’t wait for the first bounce. Dropped into the Union Club for refreshments in this heat. Hopefully I make it in time😁.

    Sorry for posting the MOZ quote in January: since then Viney, May, Fritsch, and Salem have gone down, and I know it's all my fault, mean culpa, mea culpa mea maxima culpa....

    I hope I don't get a rosary of Hail Mary's as Penance, forgot the words, and prefer Bloody Marys anyhow....

    I've just had the same conversation with my dad!  Poor bugger didn't realise he had to opt into the pack, but at least he has his old scarves to choose from

    As soon as that option came in I rang my dad and told him what to do step by step. I had no doubt he wouldn’t read the email and just go “oh yeah auto renewal”.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
      This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

      After a disappointing loss in Alice Springs the Demons return to the MCG to take on the Magpies in the annual King's Birthday Big Freeze for MND game. Who comes in and who goes out?

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.

      It's Game Day and the Demons have traveled to Alice Springs to take on the Saints and they have a massive opportunity to build on the momentum of two big wins in a row and keep their finals hopes well and truly alive.
