Alot on the line in this game.

Win this and I will be reasonably happy for a while.

While a loss will make me disproportionately upset for longer.

    I love the Narrm concept and that we led the league with this… but we have a [censored] record with that as our name. Have Narrm won a game yet? MFCSS rising … this is big game.

    I doubt other clubs care less about our name change. Collingwood will likely hit us on KB . They usually do .

    Naarm wont change anything.

     

     

     

    We’ve responded well after each loss this season. Keen to see the midfield dynamic without Oliver over the next couple of weeks.

    A great start time for a game, weather should be fine and hoping a lot of us turn up to support the boys.

    With Collingwood and Geelong around the corner, this is an absolute non negotiable must win game of footy.

    I'm more confident against Geelong than Freo tbh.

    Will be interested to see how Langdon goes today without Hunter.

    I have a feeling that Viney will have a huge, match winning game today. Without Oliver it just seems set up for the unleashing of our ballistic missile!!

    Not near as confident about this one as I was 3 weeks ago. Freo haven’t beaten anyone of note (Geelong had no midfield) but they’re confidence is up, and they are playing better. They’re moving the ball quicker and their forwards have found some form.

    Clarry a massive out but Walters is an important player for them as well.

    The forecast is a clear, sunny 15 degrees. Perfect for footy. It’s been a while since we had a Saturday afternoon game at the G so I’m really looking forward to this one.

    We won’t have it all our own way, but I reckon Fritta will do the business for us.

    Dees by 20 points

    He might go better without him and thrive on the responsibility.

    He’s been less influential since Hunter’s joined us. His possessions have gone down from 22 to 19 a game and he’s on track for just a 4 goal season, down from 13 in both 2021 and 2022.

    The last 3 weeks he’s average just 16 touches and laid only 1 tackle.

    Circumstances force me to take a circuitous route to the G today and, consequently, I shall be leaving one of The Manor's fleet at Wallan Railway Station. No doubt it will be stolen and I shall have to seek an alternative means of transportation in the pm.

    However, my mood will not be dampened as I will have witnessed a comprehensive Dees victory.

    Even with Clarrie MIA, I have no concerns about our ability to cover Freo in all respects. 

    We have flag aspirations. We must finish top 4 or , better still, top 2.

    The second half of the season is near and dropping games to sides below you on the ladder simply cannot be allowed.

    Haven't checked the stats yet, but I'd wager we have a better KB  record than QB.

    We've got today. I keep backing Kozzie for a big day out. It's going to be today. Us by 41.

    … and a bright and happy good morning you too, you big ol’ golden ray of sunshine, you!!! 😘

    We’ll have a a comfortable win today and Demonland won’t go into Chernobyl-level melts. But should we in fact lose, I’ll see y’all around about the middle of next week when everyone’s had a chance to calm the [censored] down. But not on Thursday since the aftershocks will be felt again once selection is announced. 😁

    GO THE MIGHTY DEES!!!

    Exactly. Some DL posters think a loss to Freo ends our season, but fail to take into account that WE ARE CAPABLE OF UPSET WINS AWAY or as UNDERDOGS too.

    Wonder whether he’ll stay on the one side of the ground all day like he was doing until this year?

    I have a wager with a friend that at least once today May will kick in to the right. I am on No

    He had a great game against Freo in Rd 1 2021 at the G. Kicked a lovely banana goal iirc. Hoping he can get back to that kind of form because he's been well down this year.

    Should win today.

    I would like to see McDonald really have a presence today. I just remember Brown and Weideman were non existent last time we played them at the G. I'm going to back him in for a big one today.

    Petracca and Viney to really stand up and show that no Oliver, no worries.

    Max had an absolute stinker. Rarely does this two weeks in a row.

    Kozzie to get back into form starting today.

    Won't be watching the footy as I'll be kicking the dew off at 2pm so hoping for some good news once I open my phone again at 4:45pm.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • 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.
