    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: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
