This is me every single week and has been for the past seven or so years. Hot tip: it doesn’t always work. No amount of $ can make up for a loss. 😢

I thought you would be the one who runs out and gives the player a bum rub even when not needed

Then realised I’ve got another two in my bag and cans aren’t allowed in so right now I’m outside the G smashing another two (don’t judge me). I’ll be the one pingin’ off the walls tonight, win or lose 😂

A drunk red head at the game. GET WCW ON THE GROUND! 
 

We have needed some grunt and anger on field in recent weeks. 
 

WCW to get 200 pressure points in the first 10 minutes on her own, then sub her out afterwards. She will tire quickly…

    We must win. That is all.

    But looking forward to seeing what Brown does and koltyn hopefully contributes

    The roos' pressure and contest has been good, but they lack the fitness to maintain it for four quarters.

    I doubt we'll be fully wound up, but the roos are coming of a six day break and we're coming off a bye.

    I think the roos will either come out flat, or come up out with good intensity but fade.

    Dees by 43 points.

    I thought you said North at the line looked good?

    I find myself unable to stop rueing the Petty, Melksham and Brayshaw injuries at the end of last year. I reckon we'd be holding a second Cup and sitting comfortably inside the top 4 right now had those 3 never got injured. Instead the Pies are holding another Cup, Brayshaw has retired, Petty is a shadow and Melksham hasn't fired a shot. So tonight I sit and watch a game against and up and coming young team and can't decide whether i care more about 2024 or about the draft for 2025. Then there's the salt being ground into my wounds by watching Grundy and JJ ripping it up for the top team who can't buy an injury and are flying, Dane Swan's in the HOF and Carlton and Essendon are both above us. Sheesh that's some depressing football mood right there.

    For those in the Eastern suburbs travelling in by train tonight, heads up that buses are replacing trains on the Lilydale line. Go Dees.

    Those words that true Melbournians hate to hear. Buses are replacing trains on the …..line and the umpire for todays game is Matthew Nicholls

    Just for a laugh after the results so far this round it is possible that a reasonable win tonight could be worth as much as six spots on the ladder and likely five. Going ahead of Geelong, Port, Footscray, Brisbane, one of the Dockers or Suns, and if things get really bloody, Western Sydney.

    Wild times.

    We need to be brutal at the contest today. Enough is enough. 

    It'd be more helpful to focus on skill, not brutality.

    A good reminder of one thing we call agree on - the ladder doesn't lie.

    Nah HQ always had the Pies winning. They would have found another way.

    Brown as sub really doesn’t sit right with me. I think this is a very poor move by the footy department.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
