    What didn't help was the geniuses in our Brains Trust (sic) who decided to bring in Ben Brown & Grundy on a soaking wet day. It cost us the game & not for the first time.

    Very evenly matched with tough assignments all across the ground, and I’m struggling to find a genuine reason why either side should win.
    Clutching at straws, but my red and blue heart tells me that our home ground advantage will get us over the line by 7 points.

    Just back from France and Portugal. Jet lag had me up at 3am. I’ve had breakfast and read the news, but the game is still 8 hours away. Go Demons.

    You better have a nap 


    Not sure where our goals will come from.

    Petty will need to play well and hit the scoreboard.

    Not confident at all. Maybe Kozzie to kick a bag.

    Edited by leave it to deever

    I took a leisurely drive to the game in Alice last year.

    I know your real name now....   Rob McKenna. A god of rain and perhaps a good shiraz.  Try Simon Clayfield's, you'll love it.

    And mcVee on Young

    Our starts have been so poor, but we rarely get blown away. If we are even-ish at the end of the first quarter, I reckon  we win. Fritsch, Kozzie and ANB to do the goal kicking damage. Dees by 16.

    SeeTravelling by train from Sydney to Goulburn, won't arrive till 3 pm we will have to watch on delay. Those at the game help the boys bring it home.


    I’m left wondering why this game wasn’t played during Sir Doug Nicholls round?

    There was 2 rounds to factor this in. Yet again another poor fixturing conundrum

    Well I'll only be ablt to see the first quarter so later on when I come home from work I wnat to see 3 things.

    A melbourne win, no injuries and Gold coast have beaten essendon


    I've done well to avoid David King for most of tgis season.

    I just had a reminder why.

    On the fox pre coverage King declares the dees 'have been credited with performances they don't necessarily deserve'

    What the flying does that actually mean?

    HOW GOOD DID OUR BANNER LOOK!!!

    Freo didn’t even have a banner, they had a guard of honour. We had a banner AND a guard of honour. Yeah the Dees!!!

    The wet patch on the ground is a worry. 
    Please no injuries.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
