What’s the bet we get smashed by the umpires tonight?

    But it’s different when you’re the grandparent right? Aren’t kids generally well-behaved with grandparents despite being little [censored] at home?

    The reason grand parents and grandchildren get on so well is they have a common enemy!

    Quick power workout done and now to swing to the sweet sounds of risk management.

    Petty, we’ve experimented with different set ups but ultimately 2 talls plus Lever works for reasons already discussed on here, and as good as Thommo was two weeks ago, Petty is a gun. I like the look of the fwd line as inexperienced as our two keys talls are (having Grundy / Gawn rotate through the fwd line allows us to do this). There’s a feeling of youth and excitement about it but ultimately what I like is we’re back to being mobile again. We have a great mix of players with Chandler taking his chances and Kosi who is well over due for a big one. Then there’s Fritsch who is possibly one of the most underrated players in the game. (I base this on his inability to get picked in an AA team, a team that I keep telling myself each year I care less about). Out of all of our learnings the quick mobile fwd line is the biggest so far.

    Love you comment on Fritsch. I comfort myself on his 6 goals in a gf and personally was key to saving us in 3rd quarter. Plus he has a medal.

    The AA does suck. Bit like the brownlow. Fairest and best midfielder only.

    Good time Charlie as the sub is what I expected.

    Could be some interesting moves made by Goodwin this evening and it will, of course depend on the circumstances of the game. 

    Petty could play forward or back and will be effective at both ends of the ground as required. 

    Something from left field I would like to see is Smith given a center bounce as an attending mid. might be something that would throw the cats. 

     

    Just made a mercy dash to the Romsey IGA to pick up a couple of "just in case" bottles of Shiraz.

    I couldn't resist a quaffer called "squealing pig " - I figured it might be appropriate to a post game Chris Scott.

    Just listened to Goody on Fox.

    He said Oliver had a bit of hamstring tightness ... and added that ... any other suggestions are incorrect

    So he's not on that Sub.

    Bloody freezing here in Sydney. Will be watching from a warm bed.

    My daughter sent me a text last night. Coldest June day in Sydney in 15 years. I'm part of a Kirribilli Walking Group that meets Thursday mornings at 7. A little bit brisk today 😀

    Sorry, unfortunately my model flipped to Geelong by 1.2 points following team announcements! It will update again once subs are announced.

    @WheeloRatings You're now predicting a 2 point loss. We need to get this game happening before it gets any worse!

    Looks like @binman was on the money. Charlie wasn't dropped. He's just having his load managed. I have mixed feelings. I would love to have seen Taj playing, but wouldn't like to have him debuting as sub.

    Geelong is known for late changes so it could still change again!

    This is a big game. Win and we are a game clear of the pack and well on our way to top 4.

    Lose and we are back with the pack looking over our shoulder each week.

    Form says we should win but we cannot afford to repeat our inaccuracy of the English King's Birthday.

    Dees by 22 !!

    Well we are 3rd worst for Goals from frees and against and the stat for our frees generally has dropped the last 4-6 games.

    We are also playing at Kitty Litter stadium, dominated by kitty fans, so it is pretty obvious what will happen.

    Mitch Cleary just tweeted that we won tonight’s game by 6 goals and then deleted it two minutes later…

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
