A win gets us a game clear in the top 4, takes a big scalp, and hopefully gives us good confidence for next week and a tricky month ahead. 

A loss sees us slip behind the top sides, will have Demonland baying for blood, and will be extra frustrating given it’s Geelong. 

A loss in a close game wouldn’t bother me too much. 

Cats are humming, but we still need a few things to click into place. And if I’m being realistic, I’m not expecting those clicks to all happen this evening. 
 


 

 

 

Got the nervous nellies.  Not confident.

Strap yourself in Dees fans for 2 weeks of the most biased umpiring against us. 

 

Do people who make these super optimistic predictions ever get them right?

Love the idea of it, but it’s not exactly tracking in that direction.

Dangerfield being out gives Melbourne a real chance tonight. Carn the Dees!

Bummer about last night, No. 31. 
I’ve spent half my waking hours since last night’s result consoling my fam and friends. They’re like you… genuinely wanna see us do well.

I hear your WCW.

My contempt for the team in white and black is in the stratosphere! I can spare some positivity to other teams I generally don't like.😅

tell ya what an insipid performance like last week will see us getting torn a new one , need to be intense right from the start 

Ill advised as this comment may be, I'll go with it anyway....  😱

I saw a stat a few days back that said that of the games we have lost since early 2020, only two games have been by more than 25 points.

So basically, even if we are playing average (and there definitely has been periods of that particularly mid-year), we dont often get flogged, we are invariably always in the contest and just a quick burst of good footy away from being right back in it and/or taking the game away from the opposition.

Have faith 😎

 Come on OD a bit of confidence.

Get your man Vander to fire up. 3 goals tonight is the minimum. Holding a few marks might help as well.

It is such a great feeling now, going to any game knowing we have a good chance of winning. The Premiership in 2021 changed everything - I am generally much more relaxed about footy in general. 

I can't see the Cats attack being as potent as it has the last 7 rounds. Our defensive organisation rarely allows teams more than 80 points, often under 65. 

Sparrow to run with Myers.

Petty to run with Stewart.

Kozzie, Chandler & Fritsch will be our major goal scorers.

 

It’s time for our Midfield to turn it on. 
no excuses, no more learnings. 
Turn it on, work together 

We are driving in in 30 minutes time, first time I have felt nervous all week, mind I have steered clear of the Game Day thread until now. Think this one is going to be super tough, hoping for a comfortable 17 point win but 1 point will do the trick. Go Dees.!!!!

Rather confident we get this done. Around 16 points.

HUUUGE night for a certain 17yo girl who’ll be sitting in the cheer squad in between Pauline Fritsch and me at tonight’s game.

Jade has cerebral palsy, she communicates by typing on her iPad, has a feeding tube, walks in a slow, laboured way, and is a massive Dees fan, absolutely adores 31, as she refers to him. We’ve taken her to AFLW matches without incident but until now we weren’t sure if she was ready for a men’s match. Pauline and I have been planning for the perfect opportunity since early last year and tonight’s the night!

She doesn’t know she’s going. We’re not telling her until just before the match. She will absolutely lose her mind! 🥰

So if you see a diminutive girl with an away jumper with 31 on the back in the cheer squad… that’s Jade. ❤️💙

PS: Jade was told she needed braces. She got them last week and what colour braces did she choose? Red and blue (of course)!

Heart warming story WCW.  C’mon Dees, a few more ‘one percenters’ (in honour of Jade), will get us over the line tonight.  ❤️💙

Hope we win. Fore the sake of my enjoyment tonight hope they’ve set themselves for this game and they are a bit fresh. Presume they were not last game knowing they would get the win against a weak side. Over the marathon season in the end it won’t matter any more than other games.

 

we will look clunky at times as we put more energy into defensive set up than offensive. We will turn it over exhausted from this process but we won’t (hopefully) let the cats score any where as easily as the blues did. A goal saved is worth just as much as a goal scored.

at times media and us get carried away with teams moving the ball accurately and kicking goals with grace like Essendon blues but we not leaking 100 points line those teams do in the same match. We are the only team to twice this year double there opponents score not that the media say that . 
 

grind them down dress kill ‘em in red time. Get the win and make my night!!!

 

 

 


Get to the game tonight Dees fans. No excuses. See you all at the G.

Think I might even wear my Navy Blue Demons polo top when watching the game on tv tonight.

(*does NOT include Geelong or Adelaide ... i really loathe the Adelaide Crows and am ambivalent about Geelong the team despite liking Geelong the city) 😁

So devo I can't go tonight, I was super pumped for this game!

Will be watching on the couch though and hope our supporters get loud!

Wow what a great thing to do for someone you and Pauline are very special people.I hope Jade has a very special night Go number 31 and the dees

Officially going to be pancakes for dinner.

Based on the theory that there is a finite amount of laziness in the world, I'm generously donating my personal allocation of diligence and motivation to Jacob Van Rooyen, to ensure his up the ground and back again and turning up everywhere to make life miserable for Tom Stewart.

Anyway, I dislike Geelong. You kind of have to respect them, but I can't see any argument for liking them.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
