The lions are well down the list of my most disliked teams. I despise Zorko though.

Same. I hate Zorko for what he did to Petts round 23 last year. I also hate Lincoln McCarthy for carrying on the taunting two weeks later, especially since that loss to them meant our campaign had ended. 😠

Not a betting man. Does the Lions being favourites hurt our chances of winning or is it totally irrelevant?

Irrelevant

    On the tram down St Kilda Rd. Any decent food in the walk from Fed Square through Birrarung?

    Not really, best bet is the overpriced food trucks outside the ground

    New York Minute burgers, on the Forum side of Flinders Street opposite Fed Square, 10 buck burgers and great chips.

    Totally Irrelevant. Horse Racing it means heaps but not in team sports.

    So no sudden outs for the Dees? Then it was a massive plunge on the Lions probably for the betting to move that suddenly.

    At the MCG early.

    Was feeling anxious and wanted to have some beers to calm my nerves.

    The Demons better bloody win!

    Anyway, I reckon it will be a close game. But hopefully we get over the line against the Lions.

    GO DEMONS!!!! 🔴🔵👹

    For those who like omens I will be hopping on the Glen Waverley line. The last time I traveled to the match on this line we beat the Lions on a Friday night. That night we also had a ruckman go solo and he had blinder.

    We like that omen ❤️💙


    I dont bet much but i enjoy it more than tipping. I work with a guy who has a leg of all sorts of sports into his wekend bets. Soccer, NRL, Tennis, he has plenty but he knows I think it is a problem. I told him today I used his name and password to ban him from gambling online in all betting sites in Australia. For his own good.

    I had him going for a minute or two. He was aghast.

    Love your omen but just wish you had taken the train to the finals last year as well.

    I did - Glen Waverley line as well. It didn't help. I'm thinking it's probably not a factor in team performance -same as the odds.

    Would not surprise me if there were as many Lion fans at the G as the MFC tonight. Freezing night, we are in poor form and plenty of snow at Bulla. Sorry could not help myself.

    Train is very empty. I reckon we won’t crack 30,000. 
    Sad really. If you don’t support the club now, when will you?

    • 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.
