What an outrage!  *shakes fist*
 

Don't mind it personally.  Now I can book my parking and turn up whenever I like, knowing I'll have a spot, rather than going as close to gate opening time as possible and then needing to kill a couple of hours.

Plus, other than pre-booked parking in the city (which yes, you book online), it's the cheapest and most convenient footy parking in town.

 

Edit - for anyone intending to drive in that doesnt know about the change:

What a complete bunfight this will be when 25000 turn up to park without pre-booked tickets.

 

PLus the fact that Ticketek will completely stuff up every aspect of this.

Just be sure pants are one of the two pieces. 🤭

This new jacket I got from the Scarborough Surf Club in Jan is seriously one of the most comfortable and warm jackets ever. Will be bringing that along for sure!

JVR 5, Schache and Kozzy 3 each.  Not sure who kicks the other 15 goals.

North were witches hats the last two weeks and whatever resistance they muster won’t last long.  And as I’m a supporter, it doesn’t matter if I’m taking them lightly. MFC by 60+ 😁😁

2. poor umpiring against us. Predicting at least 3-4 gifted goals

Well Donlon hates us, Razor love Gus (bodes well for his 150th) and umpires 37 & 38 have umpired less than 5 games each. So who knows.

Matching daks?

I’m sure apart from being warm you’ll look a million bucks!

I bought a new DA beanie before round one and am rapt to be finally getting the opportunity to wear it. The other 25 beanies at home are now meh.

Speaking of beanies, the bloke sitting next to me on the train right now is wearing a beanie and a really thick coat and either he’s fat or he’s a proponent of many layers (like I am, only not 30+ layers at one time), but methinks he doesn’t need it. If I get to Flinders without passing out due to his pungent gut-churning body odour it’ll be a minor miracle. DL is the only thing keeping me upright atm 🤢

Remember the OX

I've heard that Schwarter played at over 115 on occasions. Hoping Jvr won't get that big. I think DS was taller too.

Edited by leave it to deever

I'm not nervous at all. I'm expecting a good win tonight. Should I be worried? 

I mean if we're going to be a serious contender we should properly win easily tonight 


North were as physical against us as any team was last season. They are a better team now, and I expect they'll hit us very hard. I hope our guys aren't expecting an easy game. I'd like to see us hit them physically hard early and not give them the upper hand. This one makes me nervous.

Doctors told him to put on wait to help stabilise his knee. Despite 3 knee recos, we haven’t had a better CHF since Ox.


Wish we were going in with another key back tonight. 
We were exposed in defence v Essendon and Nth will look to do the same.

Gawn dropping back is great but Grundy is a liability in the marking contest.

I guess Schache can go back but that would throw all fwd structure out.

Well if we mean business you shouldn’t be. Just expect to weather the blame if we have a poor one 👍

I wish the weather was cool here in BKK. Youre lucky in Melb.. 35c often rising to 40 by early evening. Cool change wont come till after midnight every night. F##%#k terrible.

I dont feel the humidity though. Im acclimatized. Tourists should never come here in the hot season. Nightmare.

go dees


Going to the game with 13 people from work.

10 of them are Collingwood supporters. 
 

Please… PLEASE… just win Dees. 
 

Could be a bloody annoying night if we don’t.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
