Well they thrashed us last time & we had max. Now we don't.

However I'm hoping we've got our game back on track.

When I wake up tomorrow morning I want to wake up to a win please.

How long you planning on sleeping for?

The game won’t finish for another 17 hours.

    Optimistic but realistic going into this one.

    A tough game on paper.

    So many unexpected results for many teams this year though.

    I'm overseas so with the time difference by the time I wake up it will be over. Hopefully I wake up to good news

    GAME-YAY!

    We’ve got this. We’ve got this so much, it hurts. Hurts the Dockers, that is 😜

    Us by my boy Melks - 18 pts

    CARNA MIGHTY DEES!!!

    GIVE ‘EM HELL!!!

    ❤️💙🫶🏼❤️💙

     


    Not showing off (except totes showing off so much it’s not funny) I got a video message from Melky yesterday. He is supremely confident (but not cocky or arrogant) about today. So rest at ease, fellow DL-ers and Demons tragics… if Melks is confident, so too should we be.

     

    PS Red Bull and toothpaste don’t go together 😐

    YOLO! I’ll sleep when I’m dead 🤪

    Thats actually a dumb saying. Folks who say this clearly haven’t grasped the concept of sleep, nor death 🙃

    I slept for maybe two hours last night. Not staying in Perth tonight, got an 11:45pm flight home with Mrs Frittata. Neither of us will have slept in more than 24 hours so it’s a good thing *we’re gonna win today; it’ll make the trip home bearable.

    *yeah, I said WE’RE GONNA WIN, coz we are K? K!

    Mixing Red Bull and toothpaste should give you a clue.

    Game day baby. Pumped!

    Pressure all on freo. This is a free hit for us. Redemption baby.

    Go Dees.

    I always find it quite nice after a scotch

    The young guys coming in has infused the team with some youthful energy. The boys will be confident and believe they can win. I think we'll deliver a performance. Not sure of a win but we will not capitulate this time.

    Tough ask over there but its Freo we’re up against. They are liable to [censored] the bed. There's plenty of reason to be hopeful.

    Heart says gutsy win, head says gallant 15-point loss

    They’re a fully fit team with no best 22 injured, playing at home, a ruck combo against our no ruck, and their defensive structure of Pearce, Ryan, Cox, Clark) is probably the best in the league at the moment.

     

    Dees by 12 points. 🔴🔵

    I would like to say I'm confident but I'd be lying.

    I've watched Freo of late and they're impressive team on the rise. They're starting to build some really good self belief within the team, not saying we aren't either, but seems that JL seems to have them finally connecting in all three lines of the ground

    Freo at home this year have been hard to stop. Yes they lost to West Coast but I think like us they were just completely off their game. Their slingshot off half back and ability to move the ball at speed is what is winning them games this year. See the Sydney game where this was on display. 

    The Jackson/Darcy combo is another factor. Forget Draper, these two are miles ahead of him. It worries me that we're going to be putting more focus on JVR as a ruckman this week then we would initially like because Petty struggled to provide a solid contest when he was in there.

    Can see this one going right down to the wire.

    Go Dees.

    Just keep building on the last few weeks and we are a big chance to win.

    Petty broke Draper, now Darcy and Dogga’s turn.

    Love the weekly enthusiasm SN34 💪

    Only way I see us winning this one is evening up on clearance and it rain during the game to help stop their uncontested game. 

     

    Essendon lose

    Collingwood lose

    Geelong lose

    Melbourne???

    Perfect weekend if the Dees win

    Talk about a season defining game.

    Will be tough to win but finals birth for sure if we do.

    Go Dees.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
