    Reckon we'll probably lose tonight and again next week off the five day break.

    Only reason I'm posting this is because I have a habit of always being wrong in my tips.

    Yeah he’s certainly a barometer. If he plays at his best and does the midfield heavy lifting, Trac becomes more of a forward threat and we invariably win.

    Not happy about the five day break.

    If you want to know how the game will go, i’ll fill you in:

    we will play tough strong footy. blood sweat and tears will slowly move the ball fwd through stoppages and eventually get a goal after 10 minutes of pressure

    Cats will then get a goal on the rebound in 15 seconds

    and repeat

    Yes, expect a Cats rebound score or two. We will need to be in front, score-wise, a ready; particularly, ready to rebound a few goals ourselves in response. Who is going to be our forward line surprise package, tonight?

    And unfortunately Rohan not the sub for them. Typical he picks tonight to return.

    Edit - the afl site changed the sub from a Clark to Rohan (unless my eyes were playing tricks on me!)

    AFL site has Rohan as sub.


    I know it sounds slightly desperate, because it is. JVR in the warm ups was not clunking his marks (most likely never does).

    In order to win tonight, we need most of our players ‘on’.  We need our home crowd ‘on’ as well.

    Nerrrvous as hell, but GO DEES

    If any one gets a chance or wants to fill in time before games & this is probably more aimed at mcc members, you should visit the mcc museum down below. They've put in a really nice section on the Melbourne footy club, both men's and womens

    Little bit disappointed in Bill being the sub, thought he showed enough for a full game.

    Maybe Woey is in for tagging role?


    @WalkingCivilWar question for you as figured you'd know. Actually, two...  🙂

    1. Why is our banner always significantly larger than the opposition's, both width and height? Are our crew just significantly more talented than everyone else and go above an beyond the expected standard each week?

    2. Why is the banner no longer lifted, dropped, rotated, lifted, dropped...etc, so everyone around the ground can see what it says? Are we worried about a 2018 GF Filth banner type situation?

    Nothing wrong with a large erection.

    This game should be treated like a Final. Push them to the Limit Demons. 
    They are visiting sacred ground 

    Smash them at every opportunity 

    I HATE Jeeelong

    I think Rohan is more dangerous as the sub.

    Not a great turnout so far 


    Geelong by 13 points unfortunately. 
     

    They’re looking extremely slick and like they have too many players in awesome form compared to us. 
     

    Really really hope I’m wrong. Will be a cracking bloody game!

     

    Cmon Dees 😈

    If Jeeelong win by 13 points it certainly won’t be a cracking bloody game. 
    We need to turn it on…

    Nothing less

    I’m tipping us to dominate stoppages and apply huge forward half pressure and win easily.

    • 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?
