    The BOM has updated for Thursday.

    It's gone from 2-8mm to 1-4mm.

    20 degrees at lunchtime. 14 at the first bounce.

    The iphone weather app (yeah I know LOL!) is saying that all the rain will occur from 7pm to 10pm.

    I actually find the iPhone app to be weirdly accurate... but only 24 hours out. Any earlier and it's basically a random guess like any other weather app out there.

    Every chance the showers won't start until the end of the game or even later. Friday is now meant to be the worst rain of the week.

    LOL shows you how accurate it is.

    I would not bother checking until tomorrow after lunch, and even then it'll change 10 more times.

    My guess; it will either rain, or it won't.

    AccuWeather says a couple of nothing showers in the late afternoon and a 7% chance of a shower at 6pm and nothing after that. Don't bother with the ponchos folks just the red and blue scarves will be fine for the... murder.

     It’ll likely not rain until Friday. I’m so pumped for this match. Big crowd, big opponent and the chance to go to a Prelim. Bring your A fame Dee’s and get it done

    Tmac in the wet. Strewth

    Maybe they'll go with  Spargo or JJ.

    No other change.  

     

    While i wouldn't expect Macca or any KPFs to kick a bag in wet or greasy conditions i reckon we already have too many dour types that don't worry the scorer DB.

    Spargo & JJ are just two more that rarely do.  Both also struggle with distance in the dry let alone poor conditions.

    We need to put a winning score on the board even in dodgy conditions.

    Macca will also most likely get Moore as well which may free up JVR a little.

    I expect we might put someone on Moore to drag him around.

    Not sure if Tmac still has that tank.. Fritta likes covering territory.

    I'm not a KISS fan, and agree it is crazy not to book Aaussie bands, but there is one big difference to meatloaf. 

    Meatloaf was very much a has been and decades past being a top seller.

    I heard Gerard Whately say something similar ie kids won't know who KISS are. But in fact he was just showing out of touch he is. 

    KISS remain huge and continue to find new, young audiences all over the world. They are huge with kids now.

    People don't but CDs much anymore, but KISS are making a fortune from streaming.

    On spotify they get over 13 million monthly listeners and their most streamed song is I was made for loving you with over 800 million streams. 

    Those numbers aren't all old foggies reliving their misspent youth. Millions of kids love them.

    For the same reason they continue to rake in serious coin with touring . Their last major tour was i think 2019. KISS were the only hard rock act in the top 10 grossing tours in the US that year, coming in at number 7, grossing more that $80 mill US

    2019 Top 10 North American Tours

    1. The Rolling Stones ($177.8M gross; 784,652 tickets sold)
    2. Elton John ($157.4M gross; 1,155,510 tickets sold)
    3. Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band ($97.0M gross;, 867,925 tickets sold)
    4. Pink ($87.9M gross; 624,419 tickets sold)
    5. Ariana Grande ($82.6M gross; 700,053 tickets sold)
    6. Jonas Brothers ($81.7M gross; 769,310 tickets sold)

    10. Justin Timberlake ($75.6M gross; 568,449 tickets sold)

    On top of all of that they continue to make millions annually from merchandise (having more than a billion dollars in merch sales over their career).

    They aint no meatloaf.

    Actually I have a place ready to go in the 50 years member section.

    The point is that calling it by stats is why David King gets it wrong so often.

    I'm intuiting from what I've seen watching live as well as on Kayo 

    Both teams..the advantage of MCC membership. 

    I may be completely wrong of course

    Perhaps, but my other intuition is that they were short DeGoey and several others( yeah Daicos I know) and two theoretically equal sides tend to trade victories.

    I know Pies fans who are nervous about this game .

    Hopefully it is good entertainment 

    Will we get the teams friday i guess

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      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

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      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.
