Well, the last 3 games I have attended where the final last year against Carlton,  Brisbane this year at the Gabba and last week at the freezing MCG. All losses by less than a kick! Will be home tonight in Brisbane watching on Kayo so we are a much better chance. 🤞

    We play well at Marvel, I do worry about a shoot out again. If that happens one of our guys will kick a bag. Who knows how close we'll get.

    Yep.

    You can't lose most of your close games and expect finals.

     

    I think we are really up against Muhammad Ali.  Was it the rumble in the jungle

    And he gave out a whipping


    Last time we met, Tracca,May, Lever, Max and Tmac were in cheat touch with 50 marks between them.

    Chandler was in scintillating form as he is at the start of seasons with three sausage rolls and even Bbb kicked two 

    Oliver played his best game of the season.

    The drive from our backline we had was immense then and something that Gws recently showed us up in.

     

    Reckon we’ll have a comfortable half time lead of around 4 goals as the Dogs might be a bit flat off a 5 day break. 

    Then they’ll run all over us in the second half for a 5 goal Dogs win, due to our inability to put together 4 quarters against good sides.

    On paper our midfield just doesn’t stack up against theirs.

    Yeah nah, don't think so. Won't be going either, I've got points in the bank for attending last week.

    Doggies off a 5 day break more than evens the odds imv.

    I was going to quip that someone had put vodka in your water bottle "again" but then had a closer look.

    Yep you picked the wrong week to give up the old Metho.

    Don't worry, what you spend on Liver tests is offset by the savings on beers you make at Marvel these days.

    Dogs are very tall

    And their talls have been in good form

    Unlike rd 2 when their 4 tall attack wilted.

    Wouldn't the 5 day break cause them to struggle later in the game more than early?

    Last chance saloon for us. Their 5 day break, after an interstate trip, after being in Geelong the week prior, gives us some sort of edge, but on current form this doesn’t look great. If we lapse in the middle two quarters like we did last week, we’re no chance.

     

    I can’t see a world in which we win tonight. I wonder how much last weeks loss sapped our confidence/motivation.

    True. But I wouldn't be surprised if they come out a bit flat after being up for 3 weeks.

    I could be wrong and they've blown us out of the water by quarter time.

    • 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.
