Preparation… ?!?!?!!!?!

Simon Goodwin will coach the Dees versus the GWS Giants on Saturday night despite spending the past three nights in hospital.

Goodwin copped an infection at the start of the week that required an intermittent IV drip.

He was part of team meetings via Zoom during the week and discharged on Saturday morning.

Can't question the bloke's commitment.

    No, not dead, he won't get fined by the police, but the AFL Commish own the game and they set the rules, of which the players have agreed to and signed off on

    Sounds like a gag order to me 

    I hope we can do so much better in Australia 

    TMac is still in tracksuit top talking to staff on the sidelines during the warmup?

    Yep .

    Not a fan of number 20 either         ( Nichols).

    Yeah, nah.

    Not 20

    Definitely not 22.

    Or 35, or 14,

    Not overly fond of 25 or 19 either 

    There must be one that’s okay?

    Maybe? 
    Can anyone think of one?

    Ivo Crapp was a much better umpire than his surname would suggest.

    Lady at the gate said they’re expecting 23,000. I think they overestimated by 20,000.

    I'd say so, almost feel like I have to ask someone for a key to get in.

    Props to all you have fronted up at the G tonight to root for us.

    No puns on root please .

    Embarrassing turnout. It’s not even raining. 
    Really poor. Don’t complain when we get 4.40 Sunday games all year.

    Ridiculous huh. They’ve made him delete the comments. Truth hurts, clearly. 

    Absolutely. 
    He should’ve stuck to his guns. 
    There is more than enough evidence to support his claim.

    I understand keeping a lid on the umpire criticism, but The Corporation should not be immune from criticism.
    They are not the CCP.

    GWS song is a bop. I’ll hear nothing bad about it. 

    Turner as the sub? Go back to hospital Goody!!

    It really is a pitiful crowd. I reckon North might have got more down in Hobart today.

    Very much so, one of the more robust tunes.

    Gee just read goody was in hospital for 3 days. Gee that's no good.

    Anyway at least the rain has cleared for now.

    Robbo is going to have a tough night getting the crowd going

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
