Literally no excuses not to turn up tonight. No rain predicted, just bring a beanie for the wind factor.

First home game at the G in a long time, top 4 could be a done deal if we win, second game for Woey Jnr.

Just bloody get to the game FFS!!!!

I don't want a slow start. Gee them up, Mark and Co.

Great point.

I reckon we'll know 10 mins in where we are at. If we are moving it quick we will def look to score quickly and put the lions on the back foot from the get go.

When on, we really look to put score board pressure.

A point of discussion the dees have over our key rivals is our ability to make it hard for the opposition to score AND pile on goals quickly.

That's a big reason why are always in games.

I realise our key defenders may switch from player to player, but I would have thought May would start on Daniher with Petty taking Hipwood. It will be interesting to watch the defensive match-ups, particularly when Gunston is on the field at the same time as Daniher and Hipwood.

As anyone in Melbourne knows, it's been blowing a gale all day. I know the MCG is reasonably protected from the wind, but if this keeps up, it may be a very messy game.

I can just see May moving around within the defence more... Possibly Petty to play on Joe as a shut down..

Nothing more than my thoughts..

Agree with this 100% Bin !

As I alluded to earlier, I would love BBB to put one on the board in the first few minutes to take the defensive focus from JVR.

A change in a pressure system looks like it will pass over Melbourne soon. I can see some blue sky.

The gusty winds may abate.

Tonight would also be the perfect time for @picket fence 's favourite player - "Spargypants" - to bob up and snag 2 or 3!

Wouldn't that cause a complete meltdown in Casa di Picket!

Either Dunstan or Smith as sub tonight I suspect. Presuming the latter given Smith sat out the Casey game on Sunday and Dunstan played the entire game.

Smith is my guess. If heaven forbid Gawn is injured, we will need to send JVR into the ruck so Smith will replace him up forward.

My thinking exactly. (Although it wouldn't surprise me if Smith was asked to ruck to enable JvR to continue as a forward with some relief rucking.)

I hope everyone who complains about our crowds is a) going and b) going to make a heap of noise!! Even, and especially, when we're struggling!!

Mindset required by our players ‘we are the hunters’

Mindset required by our supporters ‘be very loud’

Not only a home ground advantage but a home crowd advantage - time to start cranking it up

Ok so who rucks if Gawn goes down? 
Hunter? Spargo? Kosi?

Lions into $1.85. We got a late out?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
