My prediction is the Tigers will throw everything they can muster at us early.

Possibly even heading into half-time in front. 

Then this particular thread will become a place of darkness. Season over. Certain players will be told to never play for us again. 

Then the more well-rounded team (ours) will systematically carve it’s way to a 42-point win. 

Hooray!

For those unable to attend tonight's reverential and otherwise solemn ceremony prior to the game. As the stadium lights return and the game is about to begin. Forget the SEN app, mute Seven's commentary. Flip the disc onto the turntable platter and pump up the volume.

PLAY LIST

1. Bee Gees - Stayin' Alive (if the tiggers go hard in the first half and the Dees are behind)

2. Dan Hartman - Instant Reply (guaranteed to happen, AFL sanctioned score review with product placement).

3. Rick Dees -Disco Duck (give the man a guernsey)

4. Evelyn 'Champagne' King - Shame (default if the umpiring is one -sided otherwise select dom perignon)

5. Average White Band -Pick up the Pieces (if Richmond has momentum Maysie and the Boys may need to...)

6. Chic - Le Freak (Bayley has broken off the chain. Nothing more need be said)

7. Van McCoy - Do the Hustle (Max, Clarry, Tracc and Vines take command  in the centre square)

8. Donna Summer - Hot Stuff  (Kysaiah Pickett receives nomination for AFL Father of the Year and turns it on at the 'G)

9. KC and the Sunshine Band - Shake Your Booty (Jacob van Rooyen celebrates contract extension with a big goal)

10. The Trammps - Disco Inferno (Dees apply the blowtorch to the now faltering tigers)

11. Rose Royce - Car Wash (Ooze looses personal bet with Goody. Will give the Jag XE a polish as well)

12. Earth Wind and Fire -September (expectations will be exceeded).

 

Bravo.

Perhaps a shout out to You ain't seen nothing yet by Backman- TURNER Overdrive.

It ain't Disco but his namesake gets a guernsey.

Hoping for a quality game from Clayton Oliver tonight. He was absolutely dreadful defensively last game, especially in the first quarter. That's fine if he's damaging offensively, but he was just about nonexistent in both facets of the game with that hand injury.

Quite chilly here in Melbourne now (apparent temp 11.9deg) but looks like the rain has gone and it will be a dry game..

Arguably his weakest 4 quarter effort for the club in memory. Then again it’s hard to tackle with one hand but he rarely got into contests. Should have been rested.

There is a wonderful scene from one of its episodes. Unfortunately I can't recall which one.

But I'll set the scene. Beaver one afternoon had done something wrong and the Father at dinner time gave him a stern dressing down.

The next scene at breakfast the next day has the mother saying to the father.....

"Gee you were a bit hard on the old beaver last night".

I wouldn't call that cheap but haven't bought a beer in Melbourne for a while.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
