About 50:50 supporters on my train. The Sunderland AFC bloke got off the train already.

TWO HOURS TO GO

My 4yo just asked me to watch Home Alone after I finish work (lol) - it's his first 'grown up' kid film and has watched it on repeat the last couple of weeks. 

That should time nicely for first bounce. And there are parallels for bonus points...

TRUE, KEVIN!

    I haven't seen a Binman thesis for a while now - and I think it could well be a good omen for the outcome tonight!

    Go Dees.

    What a great night for the Footy. I wish we were in Collingwoods position, we gave ourselves every chance but just come up short but still playing in a Final on a warm September night I'll take over the alternative. I hope we've all got bigger smiles on when that Final siren goes tonight. Go D's Go Storm Go.

    Stupid Mitch Robinson tweeted about gawn potentially being a late out. 

    We all should just post a leak about a different player out, would only need 24 of us. Mitch Robinson head would explode.

    Make of it what you will....

    Ye olde Barassi pub in Richmond, Mt View, usually flies the two club's flags and almost always both flags are on show.

    The Demons flag is in full flight

    While the Blues one is tangled around the pole and not on show

    So youre saying Dees dont have their own permanent change rooms. They take what theyre given on the day according to home away status.

    Sounds about right for MCC\AFL.

    Because there are different home teams at the G depending on who is playing. When we are the home team we have the home team rooms that get fitted out with sponsor signage etc

    Where does this BT hate come from? I re-watched the Collingwood second half and he was fanning our embers from early in Q3 - even though the Filth out-scored us in Q3. He was saying "4 goals, it's stlll very do-able". I don't get this argument that he's anti-Dee. I do get the argument that the AFL (and the Tribunal) are pro-Filth, though. Same as they are pro-Swans. (Like Keating says, never bet against self-interest.)

    He was the football coach when I was at school back in the day. The bloke loves himself. He hasn’t changed in 24 years. Tota f-l-o-g.

    Is your kid aware of the infinitely better sequel? I just about died of laughter as a young fella watching the trap scenes in that one.

    Fourth consecutive final at our home MCG,we're 0-3

    This [censored] bomb it it territory gameplan ain't working Goodwin!!!

    We don't have a Wayne Carey and your ex teammate Tony Modra!!!

    Heatherdale station like a ghost town compared to last week.

    Eh?? I live in Sunderland and SAFC is my other sporting love - off to see us at QPR tomorrow. Hope he didn’t embarrass us. If you’d asked him, he’d have willingly sung a few songs about hating the magpies.

    Go Dees.

    Lilydale line train actually much busier this week. Melbourne Storm playing tonight also so it’s packed!

    I strangely feel calm.

    Not sure why?!

    I am excited about tonight deep down though.

    I feel we can win against the Blues.

    Definitely more anxious last week compared to this week.

    More confident in winning this game. Fingers crossed I am right! 🤞

    Hoping that Brodie Grundy will be the "super sub" tonight.

    GO YOU MIGHTY DEMONS!!! 🔴🔵👹

    Our game plan is territory, so the long kicks will continue. We would only look for short targets in the forward line if players were one-out, and this will only happen if we win the ball on transition and use speed to get down to the forward line. Unfortunately we are just too slow, or risk adverse, to move the ball with any speed to enable this to happen.

    • 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.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
