Advise you to check the 2018 EF against Geelong, tomorrow should be a similar atmosphere!

 

Three new (giant) faces to look out for in the crowd tomorrow night…

was it in the west of the town?

I am pumped. Got the day off work, the kid will be in daycare, it's gonna be 29 degrees and sunny in Amsterdam. Can't wait to smash beers in the sun after a big win!!

Still on the other side of the world. Enjoying the weather, food and wine in Tuscany. It’s a hard life but someone has to do it. Will be streaming live and look forward to the Dees winning. I expect a hard close opening but we will get on top in the third as our structures and contest take centre stage.

Dees by 7 goals. 
 

more wine! More food! More wine!

I’m fine.

Yes, but due to jet lag!

However, Demons seem to have timed their run this year as formline overvlast 8 week’s excellent!

Pies wobbling, looking forward to Demons bringing four quarters of finals pressure, and moving onto Prelim final!

TMac also got his prep just right and just in time, would love to see him snag a few!

Demons by 21!

Amstel or Heineken?


Interesting to see Noble has been dropped by Collingwood in favour of a slightly taller Markov. Must be worried about the match up against TMac, but interesting to see if this destabilises them a bit noting Noble has played all 23 games this year.
 

Dees by 14

I smell blood.

Yep.  My whole week has been building up to this point.  Work is going to fly by today.

The oppertunity to win and go straight through to a prelim is huge.  Hasn't presented many times in my life and that isn't lost on me.

Dees by 18.

It'll be a grind throughout the game. Don't be surprised if it's a low scoring  affair right up until 3 quarter time, pretty much level pegging, for us to then pull away with our running power and superior fitness levels.

Win this, and a grand final birth awaits us.

Jack Viney BOG for me. The stage is built for him.

Dude, that's where need to you call a doctor...

The 2018 finals were big for the club and fans, but the game tonight feels like it’s the biggest for the MFC at the MCG since the lead up to the 2000 GF.

Been up early every day so far this week for work, got a late flight back tomorrow. Would love nothing more than a sleep in tomorrow with victory secured.

    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.

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
