I feel good vibes today. I believe any residue draining away of bathwater has been completed and players will respond accordingly.

Bad Omen:mad::   Yesterday a flock of very large magpies arrived in my front garden.  First 2 then 3 then 6!!!  Haven't seen a single magpie in the street since moving here 6 months ago so where the heck did they come from!!!!  And why now!!!  Last week's confidence sapped.

Good Omen:cool::  Confidence returned last night with Elliot out.  In recent years we have only beaten them when he hasn't played.

Sticking with Dees by a heart-stopping 9 points.

Can't wait to get to the G!!

Up here in Cairns the White Galahs have beaten off the Black Galahs on Smithfield  Power Poles so i'm not sure what is going on there.

    Pies list of missing players will not be the deciding factor today. They recently (and historically) best us by being harder and stronger for longer all over the ground. Today is another big test for whether we can go hard enough for long enough against decent competition.

    Haha, girth. I'm sure it's fine!

    Possibly not as fine after today!

    Struck down with the lurgy this morning and can't go to the game!!!  😫

    This means I have an MCC members reserved seat and visitor ticket available.  No cost, I just want it utilised. Any MCC member without a ticket (and a friend to go with) that wants to go please dm me. First in best dressed.

    The positive posters know how long we were terrible for and as I said to another Melbourne supporter who was giving it to his Carlton mate last week, stay humble. We don't want to turn into Hawthorn.

    Agree 100% with this, would like this to be something which separates us from a lot of other supporter groups.

    Be known for our class and humility towards the others.

    Having said that, surprisingly the oldest boy although a Pies supporter is actually quite humble towards other groups, even Freo who he absolutely despises.

    I've just come back from a weeks holiday so I've missed all the pre game build up.

    But I have no expectations today. I think this game for me is more about Neale and the slide beforehand. Maybe that's because you get a laugh at them sliding down into the freezing water & it takes your mind off the game for a bit.

    I just don't want to see cox do anything so I don't have to hear the stupid USA chant

    Ole Dub is doin it in style today (thanks to @FearTheBeard

    hitting the MCC, about to throw on a collared shirt if you don’t mind. will tuck it nicely into my jeans, assuming my girth allows

    and i haven’t started drinking yet so i can keep it classy!

     

    I'm tipping that 3/4 time exit you posted about above Dub maybe involuntary.

    Can anyone remember the last time we went into a game not as the bookies favourite?

    Imagine saying that sentence to your 2013 self.

    I'm worried that the likes of Maynard will target Van Rooyen today. Don't think Moore will but we know how undisciplined Van Rooyen can be and also he's still young and inexperienced 


    Jack Ginnavan a potential late out today.

    Free ticket/s still available.  Willing to split so even if not a MCC member, you can use reserved seat visitors ticket as long as you meet dress code eg collared shirt.

    I'm sure there will be plenty of loading up at the beer shop.

    Seriously though no idea, I'd imagine loads have increased though.

    Win lose or draw today, this round is a great win for the cause Neale is fighting and a wonderful future legacy. Thanks ND, we will with your efforts one day, beat this horrible disease.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
