    I have nothing more to say, but plenty more to add, Dazz!

    Do you get your information from Bernie Dunn and Bernie Sheehy Picket Fence. 

     

    Considering Richmond’s injuries we need to put them away early. Our real test comes the following weeks against the Cats and Blues. Looking at this weeks results 4 & 2 on face value is good but we effectively haven’t beaten a serious contender yet.

    Port are a serious contender imo. They got poleaxed yesterday but by the end of the year I think they will be right in the mix. But overall point taken. Blues off 5 days makes the Cats game even bigger...and yes putting the tigers away early would definitely be helpful!

    Blast from the past with that comment! Was coached by both gentlemen, terrific blokes as well! Both have Dees connections!

    We must play Fullerton. Max and JvR as our ruck combo can’t possibly see out the season.

    Furthermore, playing backup ruck is hindering JvR’s development as a key forward IMO.

    Has anyone else heard a rumour that Kozi won’t play on weds? Wife just had a baby..I’m I late to the party on this…haven’t had time to read through pages 

    Didn't know he was married, or that he is expecting.

    If Mathew Nicholls or Nathan Williamson are umpiring I won't go.

    Shocking umpires who hate Melbourne and make the game unbearable.

    We have just had a 13 day break and will then have a 10 day break. Now is not the time to give Max a chop out.

    Yze will also put up a good tactical game, looking to exploit known vulnerabilities. 

    We just need to focus on responding to the Lions games.

    Let me outline Yze's game plan.

    1. Don't kick it high into the Richmond fwd line

    2. Chip the ball into the fwd line. Dirty balls work well against the Dees.

    3. Avoid May and Lever

    4. Pressure them relentlessly and watch them crumble

    5. Avoid May and Lever

    6. Jump into Gawn's back at every single opportunity. Hold him scragg him - he never gets a free so don't worry

    7. Shake Olivers hand really hard at the start of the game. Give him lots of high fives

    8. Avoid May and Lever.

    9 Above all and if you have forgotten everything else, avoid May and Lever

    Not married, but partner's pregnancy was announced a few months ago.

    In December they announced the pregnancy but I thought the due date was in June. Maybe she was further along than we thought. 🤷‍♀️

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
