It's Game Day, and the Demons' hopes for making the finals in the 2024 season are hanging by a thread. A loss would be the final blow to a disappointing season, while a win against the in-form Bulldogs would offer a temporary reprieve. LFG!

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.

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.

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.

Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
