Win at least 6 out of the next 8. Then the next 3. 
like 87. Only better.  Go Dee’s 

 

Except in '87, we won the last 6 home and away, then two finals.

If we start the protecting lead mindset with a percentage of 99 it will be disgraceful. If the lead is only a few points then we must just to keep season alive.

Tricky

Best defence ... is attack ;)

There’s a few people on the train already

I think given the free kids entry and the activities and the weather, the turnout will be quite good. 
Parents are desperate for things to do on school holidays that don’t cost a thousand dollars. Trust me. 

Anyone at the ground?

If so, can you please advise if the top of the Ponsford is open.

    He didn’t attend any because he isn’t a member. 
    The last time he attended finals was 2018 when we played Hawks and Geelong.

    Apologies then I thought he had attended a couple of the recent finals games. 


    I expect a ten goal win.

    Stunning winters day. I think we’ll fall over the line and get the 4pts today. 🤞

    Didn’t make the most of his chances last week to warrant a full game. Dropped  a costly mark with 90 seconds left that lead to the winning goal by McCluggage.

    Hopefully Goodwin utilises a fresh player for more than the last 3 minutes of a game.

    I'm confident.

    My eye is in this weekend on the punt.  Excellent results on port and the giants.

    As a rule, I don't back the dees, but if I did i reckon the 33 points line is great value. 

    We are getting close to our optimal shape and think we will go hard early to establish a break.

    The eagles could bounce of the talk players are nor behind Simpson, but equally that could be a bad portent. Dees fans know all about how corrosive such chatter can be.

    And they are comimg off a six day break and travel, to our 8 day and no travel.

    As always the key will be taking our early chances. If we do I could see us giving them a touch up.

    By the by the other bet that I reckon is value is the crows making their 27 point line. 

     

    Strange they named Taj on the ground and Kolt on the extended interchange. I wonder if there's been a change there or if that was always the plan.

    Agree.

    I reckon he's lucky to be in the side at all to be honest.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
