    That syndrome thingy is hard to get rid off I see.

    Sun is out, good day to support the boys.
     

    Gotta keep positive.  Not even a stuffed up buses replacing trains timetable will keep me away from seeing the Aint’s get demonised this arvo.

    And for all the mfcss people out there, spare a thought for similar minded Geelong supporters at the moment. I do 😉

    Some of us are brimming with confidence. Delusional? Probably. But at the first bounce it’s a clean slate for both sides. Either side can win. Trust that we will win.

    Does anyone have real evidence to back up the rumours that the group has been hit by Covid?

    @Dannyz maybe?

    Funny! But just as a matter of interest, what part of my post isn’t a true statement of things at the moment?

     

    The Melbourne of rounds 1-4 would easily account for a struggling St Kilda today.

    However, with the Melbourne of rounds 5-10, I don’t see how any supporter or poster could go in today with any semblance of confidence.

    I thought your post was pretty spot on aside from the Windsor comment about looking for a new club in 2026.


    predicted half time score. we will hold a commanding lead

    3.7

    Yeah I know but at least if we’re not expected to win and we do you get double enjoyment!

    Same enjoyment… honestly, a win is enjoyable whether I stand to gain money or not. But a loss is devastating, microscopically less so when I haven’t lost any money and have indeed gained money. If I backed us, and we lost to, say, 🤮Essendon 🤮 I’d be extra filthy about it. That’s just not worth the risk. 

    A win is the only acceptable outcome today. 3 on the trot would be disastrous, especially considering our opposition.

    Not a single coffee or Red Bull?!  Hope you've rectified that by now, WCW!

    Oh, make no mistake. I have well n truly rectified it, DP. I’m bouncing off the walls of the train right now. But it’s the Sunbury line so nothing unusual.

    As a whole its overly too negative.

    Way too early to be telling Windsor to look around for a better team.

    Hey y’all, we’ll be up the back of M3 prematch selling Big Freeze beanies. $25 each. The DA doesn’t make any money selling them, we just love the thought of moving as many as possible. They’ll also be available prematch on the day of the KB match but things are bound to be hectic that day so best you grab one today!!!

    Card is preferred; we can accept cash but no change can be given so exact money is compulsory if paying with cash.

    St Kilda by 10. As usual, we will be goals down at quarter time, then playing catch up for the rest of the game. Too many players either not up to it or out of form, or both. Sadly, Essendon, GWS, Fremantle have gone ahead of us. Sydney, Carlton, Collingwood, Brisbane were ahead of us anyway, and Port Adelaide too due to their massive home ground advantage. Like Geelong, I think our window has closed. Our midfield stinks at the moment, without Lever and reliant on TMac and Tomlinson our backline is shaky at best. Petty is non invested, JVR needs to kick goals, it is what he is in the team for. Thank god for Bayley, will probably end up with 50 plus for the year. Oliver not fit, Viney getting to that stage where the decline starts, Tracc can’t be everywhere. Windsor a positive, probably needs to consider his options come 2026. Would be an absolute gun in a top team. McVee is class. Not much else really.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
