Anyone else a bit concerned that we are going in too small? Especially given that it may not rain as much as predicted?

 

Changes from 2021 GF team - out BBB, Jackson, Petty and Spargo. In - JVR, Hunter, Chandler and McVee. Much smaller team.

It is smaller but you've missed Smith for Harmes.

 

Rain, hail or wind…. we’ve got this

There is no other option 


What a week.

My big brother is in hospital. My best friend is starting his chemo. And my wife has just been diagnosed with diabetes.😭

I NEED A WIN!

If it’s Diabetes 2 then diet and exercise will conquer it. I’ve had 2 friends who both got diagnosed, changed their diet, lost weight(lots) and now have no sign of diabetes. 

 

Hard to say this, but I really need to do some work. Literally every thought is about tonight and it needs to stop for 2 seconds!

Great in theory, let's see if the doing is as easy. 

What a day!  Melbourne beats Collingwood in a big final and The Rolling Stones release their new single.

Everything's coming up Demonstone!

I don’t think it’s going to be wet. I think we’ll get a shower and it’ll pass quickly. The front is preceded by a thin rain band. Both the front and the rain band are tracking South West. Most of the heavy rain will hit Portsea and Bass Strait. Obviously the many retired Demons down in Portsea will be snug with their superannuation, cash, property and share portfolios and will likely not even see the rain. Although looking out over the Bay from the cliff top may leave them with vertigo. Cheers to all, leave the poncho’s at home.

Jeepers what a sick class war burn! Chapeau!

Concur and we have that advantage of beating them back in June. If we had of kicked straight would have been a 5-7 goal win SO kick straight tonight and it's ours for the taking. I'll be in the lounge up in Brissie with shorts and Demon polo and plenty of VB's. Enjoy the game guys.

Missed out on tickets so will be watching on from home.

Hope everyone here that is going has a great evening with hopefully a dees win to celebrate.

If we're comfortably winning with a minute to go, an ironic Collingwood chant from the Melbourne faithful  would be hilarious.

Interesting selections by both clubs. I suspect the loser may rue their decisions. 

 

Looking forward to the following headline:

"Pies lose due to impotent wet Cox"

Marvelous that.

Working on that one earlier today, or had it in the arsenal for awhile?

I think you did a typo. I’m sure you meant the chant would be ‘Colliwobble, Colliwobble…

Question 1 

J.Smith - forward or back ???
 

Was impressive last game v Swans for his pressure and competitive nature as a forward.  Got to the contest. Fritsch, JVR, Melksham, Smith and two smalls rotating.  
 

But he may play back as we have May and Lever to cover Mihocek, Mcstay, Cameron and potentially Howe.  Smith likely with Rivers as well.  
 

Question 2. 

I assume Hibberd gets Elliott.

Who gets Hill?

Assume it’s Mcvee. 
 

Question 3. 

Will Kozzzy finally hold onto those absolute screamers?  I like him competing on the deck and not necessarily in the air. 

Need to see X factor tonight… hopefully Kozzzy can light it up!! He should play forward and occasionally into the middle.  But like him inside 50 and kicking goals. 
 

 

Finding it very very difficult to do 1 single productive thing today. 

Computer is onnot my job GIF

Same. I'm giving away a Junior seat on level 4 if anyone wants it.


Anyone else feel more nervous now David King has jumped on the bandwagon, feel like he’s almost the kiss of death

Everyone hate Collingwood.

Best way I can determine and hope for an improved treatment from the umpires!

Toey as

This result is HUGE

Agree

Tonight due to the weather it won't be a true test so hopefully luck falls our way.

Lose and it's likely Carlton followed by a draining game in Brisbane heat and a GF against a fresh Collingwood. (Possible but unlikely)

Win and the Stars and Moon will follow

Go Dees

Big big night for the club. Here's hoping Goody has his A Game on and the players respond. Must hold our nerve from the get go and silence their supporters early.  

So important to win this one whatever happens on next few weeks just win this one boys.

  • 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.
