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.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
