Did anyone hear Craig McRae say to the reporters “See you in a couple of weeks” at the end of his presser on Tuesday?

Its been reported by Code/HS that his little quip angered a few of our officials and some players

I did see that and I just though might see you a bit sooner [censored]. I really want to see how he handles losing. I reckon he would be a bad loser.

    I’m out in Dandenong doing something for a friend. I’ll need to be fumigated on my way back to the MCG. Im not making any eye contact out here - is good training for Head Quarters tonight.

    Rain is here

    No rain in the west we actually have some sunlight, must be coming from the North- North East. Hopefully the wind blows it out in time for the game.


    Pies considering a late change?

    2 rucks is disaster tonight 

    A front with rain coming thru soon.

    But with the wind will pass in a couple of hours.

    Then there is another band which might come thru two hours later.

    Ground will be slippery, and it will be very windy, but we might get lucky with the rain

    But it's true. After losing tonight the Pies beat tomorrow's winner and bingo he's back in two weeks.

    He showed glimpses of churlishness this year. Like most coaches he's. Friendly and amusing till it all goes south.

    What did he say last year after the Geelong loss? Or the Sydney loss?

    Rain is now less likely a major factor. We have this, sensing a real vibe! 
     

    If we convert our chances we win. If that I’m 99%.

    Clarry to EXPLODE tonight

    On my way now. The nerves have gone just excitement. But it feels like it's going to be a long night and hopefully a good one.

    I just want to win

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
