IN: Colvin, Gay 

OUT: Chaplin, Harris 

 

what’s going on with Tayla?!

 Late change. It was gonna be Campbell out.

Apparently Tayla hurt her hammy at training.

Shame about Tayla. We all know what happened last time she missed!

Still, we've never been in a better position to try to cover her.

 

Harris hasn’t looked her best so maybe good to have a spell. 

needs to get the anger back

Just read hamstring for Tay Tay on one of those news sites. Picked up at training this week - anyone know anything - do we need to freak out

Unfortunately I won't see the game - I'm still blinded by the sunset at Frankston on Friday night. 

That was shocking on TV to try and watch. Not a good time to schedule a game. And top it off the camera crew must have been the work experience kids that day, so often they were no where near where the ball was when filming the game.  it was off to the right or left of the frame out of sight so often.

She was fine at training on Tuesday till right at the end when she lay on the ground and one of the trainers started working on her leg, giving it a bit of a stretch and test.  Hopefully it's not too bad...... 🤞

Losing Tayla is bad news, hopefully it will be just the one week, we definitely want her back for the next game against Adelaide.

One concern I have for the Geelong game is that it is our third short week (six day break) in a row.  The men often say two short weeks is a problem.  It's not a question of fitness and running out of steam, but compounded short recovery time takes the edge off - you aren't as sharp, reflexes a bit slower, etc.

Geelong only have 5 days between games, so hopefully it is not a huge issue.

Game day! Looking forward to this one. Great way to kick off the long weekend.

The boys struggle in Mordor but I back the girls to get it done this evening. Geelong have improved as their results show but we’re a step up in class for them. They’ll challenge early but our quality will tell in the finish.

dees by 25 points.


If you are looking for the match on Fox Footy 504, it's not there. Nor is it on 503.  As I was hyperventilating,  I spotted it on 505!

A rare occurrence, but much happier now. This men's GF build up is so disruptive to us true believers. 😈

For those of us that can't make it.

As I understand it history has tended to show, at least with the men, that a single five day break is not usually a problem, but consecutive six day breaks can be.  Hopefully, though, all will be well.......

Im very pleased for you, Viper. You're in for a treat, even if the result doesn't go our way (wash my mouth out!) Do some barracking for me, then, you and the offspring, while I'm laid up here on the other side of the planet.

Why would you say even if the result doesn't go our way?  The treat  is our magnificent form and if we get beaten the treat most likely won't be a treat!!

Cos I like washing my mouth out 😄

Part of the same character trait that kept me being a Dees supporter for those 57 years!

Beautiful day in Geelong. Pumped for tonight!!!! GO DEES! ❤️💙


Betting $1.14 to $5.50!

Crikey! Really? (not that I should be letting this tawdry aspect of modern sport into my appreciation of the still relatively pure experience of women's football and our glorious team in it...)

Bloody handy highlight reel from Maddi Gay. Also her birthday today!

Always loved the way Maddi Gay goes about her footy. She's as hard as a cat's head 

Home strip. Nice!


second to the ball so far. cats bringing it early. girls need to left

Goldy and lack of forward pressure both frustrating me so far. Need to settle down and win some contests 

Commentators wouldn’t recognise a push in the back if they copped one themselves 

 

who is the female commentator cheer leading for the cats. she's a nuffie.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
