Great to see the kolt sporting an early style Kozzie haircut.

Was that Nev aka Superman presenting the kolt his jumper?

Nev in da house

 

Loved Nev. Always thought he should have worn a cape. One of the best defenders the club has ever had.

 

A little nervous about this game. Mainly because I could see Brisbane reacting hard to the position they find themselves in and wanting to prove a point. It is more of an 8 point game for them than it is for us. They drop this one and it is a long way back for them this season.

From an MFC point of view if we can bring our professional game tonight and bring our pressure on the player and the ball we will have their measure.

I loved the pressure turnovers against Adelaide last game and want to see more of that.

Dees by 3 goals.

One of my all time favourite players. Absolute legend 

As my MCFSS starts to kick in for tonights big match. A few stats from Hoyney on the Sportsday podcast on Tuesday.

1. Melbourne are ranked No.1 at taking the most difficult shots at goal after 5 rounds, we are just kicking accurately, 10% above expected scores. Exactly like last years first 5 rounds.

2. Melbourne are the 6th easiest team to move the ball against.

3. Brisbane are the the No.1 at moving the ball.

Might be  bit of a slingshot game tonight, lots of ball movement. Hopefully we keep our accuracy up whilst keeping them under 70pts.


They have the players playlist up on the big screen and apparently Jake Lever selected Strawberry Kisses by Nikki Webster.

 

Maybe we do have a culture problem after all...

Lucky lions broke the bogy last week or it would extra embarrassing if we loose 


‘Absolutely everybody’ is pumping at a horrible volume 

take your time getting in

It's night for Jack Viney tonight...

He's was coming off illness into the games in Adelaide. I expect he will step it up a notch or 2....

25k. Max.

 

Beautiful night here.

Minimal wind, right temperature for footy, maybe some dampness from this mornings rain, but makes for a nice soft running surface.

Go Dee's!

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
