I'm tired of being the Lions' bunnies. Dreaming of another 60+ win against them but more realistically hoping we win - even if only by a point.  Carn ya red legs!!  ❤💙

It would be so good to knock these arrogant sun-soaked tools off at their dilapidated [censored]-heap of a ground.

Couldn’t have put it better myself!

Belief and confidence… and lots of it.

WE CAN DO THIS!!!

Us by a Gus (10pts)

YEAH THE MIGHTY [censored] DEES!

Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

Unfortunately Melbourne coaches and recruiters didn’t understand the importance of having a deep midfield. 

Brisbane have 10 players that are capable of playing on ball. Dees are lucky to have 5. 
 

they will run rings around us by shear force of numbers. Unfortunately we are 3-4 midfielders off being a decent side 

This will be a great challenge especially for the youngsters. Good luck to AMW.

And I hope we win just to give a big F U to all the misery around here lately.

Hear, Hear! I’m with you on this, Zephs!!!

If we win, the big F U might have to wait since the mob of sad-arzes won’t be here coz, well…a win.

If we win I’ll be the first in the postgame thread to celebrate 🎉

If we lose, I’m gonna put a massive bunch of space between me and Demonland coz, well… a loss 😢

GO DEES!!!!

GIVE ‘EM HELL!

❤️💙

 

Good luck, Monners! 🤞🏽 

 

Well I'm not holding out any hope. 

But for gods sake petty and fritsch do something tonight.

Happy to see lever back though 

I'm quietly confident we will lift to the occasion and win a hard fought, gritty and at times spiteful clash against a key rival which we will build on through to September. Bring our contest and pressure and we are a very difficult team to play against.


$5.80? That is crazy. Will be getting some of that.

Hoping to put in our best performance since the St Kilda game and keep the margin very respectable. A win is unlikely for a number of reasons.

However, win next week and there’s a scenario or two that would have us in the 8 at the end of round 17, or at the very least on the borderline.

Moving day. play well (win or close loss) and the commentary may lighten up on us a bit.  ( some here might lighten up on each other, too!(

It’s the start of the ‘backend of the season’ stretch.  I think we have set ourselves for this one.

Keys:  Match them in contest and clearance  = dont allow massive clearance goal scores like they did against Geelong.

          Contested in their 50 - slow their transitions and make joe the goose play outside of the 50 for his touches 

         Pressure over 190 all game

        Score at least 85 points.

This is the start of the next phase of the season, AMW to get a look in as part of his development, not sure we can play as tall as listed (?Late change?)

 

W .   Go Dees!

Still not confident of a win, very much the other way. But Lever back in solidifies the backs a bit. I see Tmac giving Max. Rest swinging forward it back where needed. 
so perhaps it will not be a 50 point loss, with the back line working.

Monners in for pup   I am disappointed but if they knew it might happen, not concerned re development.

our mids will need to work better. Rivers to stay, he looked a natural in that position. I hope Sparra can come good. Viney is doing too much. And max, hit it to our blokes. 
our forwards is why I think we will lose ,  

JvR to stay on the ground the whole game, fritta and petty do something.

and Kossy cause mayhem just run anywhere and get clear. If no one else is contesting the mark. Go for it !

Go Dee’s   35-40 pints I think.

Someone ( anyone) to wipe out Zorko would be pleasant


If nothing else, this year’s AFL competition has shown that anything can happen on any given day.  Maybe the ‘Footy Gods’ will be smiling on us for a change ……. after all, it must be our bloody turn!  Dees by 3 points.

Do they think we are Nth Melbourne?  I hope someone shows the players that and asks them to show the footy world what they think of that level of disrespect.

Perhaps Sparra to run with Zorko ?

Chin with Ashcroft . 
If Oliver tagged too heavily swap him with Kossy.    Is there a plan C or D ?

Just have a crack lads.

Imagine the minds blown if we can pull this off haha. Media wouldn’t know where to rate us anymore (to be fair I wouldn’t know either) 

 

Fritta and Petty do something. Sparrows time to lift.

I have the belief that the situation up in Brisbane is the same as in Port.

Wasted great lists and home ground advantage for years, and the coach could be sacked soon due to lack of finals success. Although Fagan has more credit because at least they got to a GF unlike Port.

I do hope we can contribute to that this week 🤞🏻.

Let's go out there and win!

Give Clarry the support he needs and make give AMW a debut to remember! 

Odds are against us but we can do it, go Dees!

Just arrived in Brisbane and rolled into the Sofitel only to turn around and see myself staring at someone's crotch.

Max is unnaturally tall...

 

Go Dees?

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • 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.
