The Demons face a fired up Richmond Tigers who are playing for a position in the Top 8 whilst we have another opportunity to consolidate our own position by retaining our 2 game buffer within the Top 4 and as a result of some favourable outcomes in other matches there is the possibility of us sneaking into third place on the ladder. Carpe Diem!

    Great wicket by Hazelwood just then…

    What a way to start off the game day thread with the Aussies up and about!

    For those of us that can, it is our duty to rock up to the G and loudly support our boys.

    We cannot allow Richmond to have the crowd become their ‘19th man’ on the ground.

    Poms have been giving us another lesson today though?? I need your optimism for both codes. We have a door open here & need to finally control a game - but will take Ashes 2-2 & todays game by a point please. 

    A slight worry is the late afternoon rain; otherwise I’d be confident we’ll beat Richmond by 5-15 points. Go Dees!

    From a new article: ”Statistics show Carlton are ranked 5th in the AFL for scores against per entry and 6th for inside 50s against. Remarkably, 15 of the last 18 premiership winners have ranked in the top six for both of those categories–and the only other club currently joining the Blues in the top six for both is Melbourne.”

    On Richmond, here is one of my good memories: One year, there was one game between Richmond and another team in MCG, the scores were tight. With only 5 minutes left and Richmond behind, forwarder Nathan Brown ran back to help their back line—how sweet he was. He managed to take a mark 50 meters out and swiftly kicked a beautiful long-distance goal. He raised his arms, beaming with a smile…  then he stopped: “How come no teammate is running towards me? How come they put their heads down? Holy sh*t, I kicked an own goal!”

    I love Tigerland, keep your good work, Tigers, you are the best!

    First time we’ve played Richmond in an away game that isn’t Anzac Eve since 2014. We won that 2014 game.

    2019

    We lost that game.

    Tiges are always difficult to beat so we'll need to be on our game to win.

    Perfect world (and in keeping with the perfect weekend so far) Petty will kick 5 goals.

    Our leaders Max, Trac and Viney will drive us on to victory.

    Dees by 20 points

    The stars are aligning, this is a real statement game. Cannot wait.

    Go Dees.

    Not another close one please.

    We should do a game day thread from all the different places we are watching.

    Ps you win

     

    Edited by leave it to deever

    Get the job done today.

    If it's not pretty footy then I'm happy with that.

    We win today and we're pretty much level pegging with the Lions and Port for 2nd or 3rd spot.

    We lost that game.

    That 2019 was a home game (was thinking we never play Richmond in an away game that isn’t Anzac Eve) but goes to show we hardly ever play Richmond twice in a season because of Anzac eve, and very unusual to play them this late in the season.

    Hoping for a good professional win and Petty answers some questions up forward.

    Port have Geelong and Freo away and GWS at home and Tigers in the last round.

    Lions have Freo and Coll away and Adel at home and Saints in the last round.

    The first three for both are tough wins against teams that have either a reason to win or no reason to lose.

    We have Tigers, Carl, and Haw at the G NM in Tassie and then Syd in Syd in last round.

    Win today and you are ‘one more win heading home’ than these two away from 2nd…

    Does anybody know where the Dees supporters can sit today? I have a h&a membership and do you know if you can upgrade your tkt for the day?

    I'll try not to complain about Goody's selections again after the cricket selections in the Ashes this year.

    Go to Rich v Melbourne on Ticketek, select "Club Members and Public Reserve" and enter your barcode where indicated".

    Worked for me on Sunday I got a reserved ticket on level 1 on the wing. It may be too late now but worth a try. Heres the link: https://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/Show.aspx?sh=RICHM2023

    My MFCSS is running rampant, especially given rain forecast.
    Please Dees, don’t join the crazy list of upsets this weekend. This is a golden opportunity ………. grasp it with both hands!

    The only upset I want is on the faces of the Toiges fans as we give them a belting…

    People are referring to the fact that the results in the games played so far in this round have been upset games but Richmond are on a bit of a run having won 6 out of their last 7 games which is a better run that we’ve had in that time. 

    So in reality, it’s us who have our backs against the wall and on that basis, I believe we’ll follow the trend of the round by upsetting the Tigers.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
